West Harting, Petersfield, West Sussex, GU31

Gorgeous detached period house, offering immense character. The house benefits from some amazing rural views, yet is close to village amenities.

Description

Set in a truly outstanding rural location, this beautiful, detached Grade II listed house has so much to commend it. The property is presented in immaculate condition, having been improved by the current owner.

The property is full of original and enhanced features, such as a wealth of exposed timbers, many of which have been sand blasted to restore their original look. Inglenook fireplaces and hand crafted windows further compliment the stylish kitchen and bathrooms Old Well Cottage has to offer.

The house was extended in recent years, with the addition of further bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor, with its own, separate staircase. The house benefits from good head heights for its age and the rooms are well proportioned. Of particular note is the drawing room, which has its own wine store, along with a dining room which is adjoined to the kitchen/breakfast room by the reception hall. The kitchen is well fitted with a range of stylish units. The house therefore has the perfect blend of character features with modern appliances.

Outside, there is a driveway with parking for several vehicles long with a double car barn. The garden is beautifully tended, being laid largely to lawn, and carefully designed to take full advantage of the fantastic rural views. There is a heated swimming pool and pool house and the vendor currently also rents a small paddock for around £250 per annum, on an informal basis.
