Description

An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire The People’s Market in the heart of Hambledon village - offering approximately 7,500 sq. ft of flexible accommodation and immense potential, with approved planning permission.

The People's Market - Offered to the open market for the first time in over half a century, The People’s Market is a landmark listed property of immense character and scale, extending to approximately 7,500 sq. ft - with approved planning permission in place and offering a combination of residential and commercial property.

Steeped in history, this extraordinary residence retains a wealth of period features — from fireplaces and stonework to elegant proportions throughout, whilst offering remarkable scope for modernisation, conversion, multigeneration living or development to suit the needs and vision of its next custodian.

A property of this scale, heritage and flexibility is rarely available. The People’s Market represents not only a significant piece of history, but also a unique opportunity to craft a modern legacy within a truly special home in the heart of Hambledon village.

Please see brochure for more information.

Situation - The People's Market lies at the very heart of Hambledon within a Conservation Area, a picturesque South Downs village celebrated as the “Cradle of Cricket.” Hambledon Club is believed to be one of the oldest cricket clubs in the world and the village retains a proud sporting and cultural heritage.

Today, Hambledon offers an enviable blend of rural charm and everyday convenience. Facilities include a highly regarded primary school, a thriving village shop (conveniently located at the front of the property), a welcoming pub, historic church, boutique café, tearoom and the acclaimed restaurant at Hambledon Vineyard. The active village hall further enriches the sense of community, while the surrounding lanes and pathways of the South Downs National Park provide endless opportunities for walking, cycling and riding in unspoilt countryside.

Please see brochure for more information.

Planning Permission - There is approved planning permission in place for the conversion of the building if desired.
