Redwood Lane, Medstead, Alton, GU34 5PE

Do You Dream Of Peace, Privacy And Proper Country Living - Without Being Stuck Out In The Sticks? Woodlands gives your family an idyllic lifestyle, where you can walk to the pub and the village shop but still get the train to Waterloo in just over an hour.

It’s properly peaceful and private here - quiet, tucked away down a leafy no-through lane and not overlooked at all. 

But you can still wander down to the village shop to grab a pint of milk, stroll to the pub and get a train to London in just over an hour from nearby Alton.

The house itself has space for your family in all the right places. Four separate living areas give everyone room to do their own thing, whether it’s movie night, working from home, or just shutting the door and switching off.

The kitchen opens into a light and bright garden room that feels like you’re sitting outside - even in winter. And there's a huge utility that makes day-to-day life run that bit more smoothly.

Upstairs, all five bedrooms are decent size doubles, and all but one have built-in wardrobes. The main bedroom has its own ensuite and dressing room, and there’s another four piece bathroom for the rest of the family. 

Outside, the plot’s around 0.7 of an acre and full of interest all year round. 

The top garden’s full of flowers and colour, with a patio running the width of the house. A path leads down to the lawn, a hidden shed, and a shady terrace that’s perfect on hot summer days. There’s also a raised deck at the back where you can watch the sun go down over the Candover Valley.

It’s incredibly private out here - you can’t see another house when you look out the back. Deer wander through the fields most mornings, owls nest in the trees, and the garden’s full of birdsong. There’s even a little gate into the fields if you fancy a walk straight from the garden.

Parking’s easy too, with a gated gravel drive and a double garage.

And while the setting feels secluded, you’re still just a short walk from Medstead’s village shop/post office, primary school, tennis club and pub. 

The neighbouring village of Four Marks offers more day-to-day choices, while Alresford and Alton are both within easy reach for shops, schools and fast rail links to London.

Woodlands has been a brilliant family home for the last 25 years - with room to spread out, easy access to the countryside and a proper village way of life. 

Now it’s chain-free and ready for its next chapter.
