Description

Coast & Country by Henry Adams are delighted to represent the sellers of 23 Leydene Park set within the exclusive Leydene Park development, of only 32 homes with attractive communal grounds and tennis courts, near the charming village of East Meon. This elegant family home offers generous and flexible living space, mature private gardens, and a wonderful balance of modern comfort and rural escape.

Built in 1997 by Berkeley Homes, the property sits on a beautifully landscaped plot of approximately 1.17 acres and is one of a collection of executive homes within the grounds of the former HMS Mercury. The estate has an illustrious past, once forming part of Leydene House, an impressive country mansion built for Lord and Lady Peel in the early 1900s and later repurposed as a vital Royal Navy communications base during WWII.

Accommodation

The internal layout is spacious and thoughtfully designed to offer flexible living arrangements for a wide range of buyers. A real highlight is the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area carefully designed by our clients, it’s a bright and sociable space with 3m wide sliding doors opening onto the garden, ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike.

Complementing this central living space are three additional reception rooms: a formal dining room, a cosy sitting room, and a generous drawing room with a feature fireplace—providing excellent flexibility for families, home working or guests. A separate utility room and ground floor WC complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, there is an impressive principal bedroom with large en suite. The second bedroom also benefits from an en suite, while two further double bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom. Bedroom five currently serves as a great dressing room to the main bedroom suite but could easily be converted back.

The house is tucked away towards the back of the estate further enhancing its peaceful setting and approached via a private driveway with ample parking for several vehicles which gives access to a detached double garage. The south-facing gardens are a real feature—wrapping around the property and offering sweeping lawns, mature trees, well-stocked and attractive rose beds, as well as a high degree of privacy.

Whether you’re enjoying family time outdoors, hosting summer gatherings, or simply relaxing in tranquil surroundings, the outside space is as impressive as the interior.

Why live in Petersfield?

Petersfield often features on lists of the best places to live and work and was recently voted one of the top 10 most desirable market towns in England; The Guardian went so far as to describe Petersfield as 'a commuter's Nirvana, the urban equivalent of a foot rub and a G&T'.

We have a delightful choice of properties in the area, from beautiful character cottages, some dating back 500 years, to coach house style homes and large rural retreats to modern family homes. There's also a thriving rental market here as the convenient location, attractive setting and abundant facilities make this an excellent base for those working in the wider area or simply wanting a perfect place to raise a family.

One of the major attractions for families is the choice of world-class schools - The Petersfield School

is rated 'outstanding' by Ofsted and Bohunt School

at nearby Liphook is one of the top performing state schools in the country. In the private sector, Churcher's College

and Bedales

are located in the town, while Ditcham Park School

is just to the southeast.

We have cosmopolitan range of shops, restaurants and cafés, with most major retailers represented. The Petersfield Market is held twice a week in The Square and a Hampshire Farmer's Market

is held on the first Sunday of every month. We also have many sports facilities, including two golf clubs, the Taro Leisure Centre

and the Petersfield Open Air Swimming Pool

, which, despite being open to the elements, is always heated to an average of 27 degrees.

But what really sets Petersfield apart is the beautiful countryside and its pretty villages. These include Selborne with its post office, primary school and choice of two pubs, Steep Village, which sits on wooded slopes known as The Hangers and was once home to Sir Alec Guinness, Buriton Village, which sits between Petersfield and the Queen Elizabeth Country Park

and Rogate and Rake to the east within in the Rother Valley.
