Description

Little Thatch enjoys a wonderfully private position towards the end of a lane shared with just three neighbouring homes, surrounded by rolling Hampshire countryside and offering an idyllic rural setting.
This exceptional and unlisted residence beautifully merges the timeless charm of an 18th century thatched cottage with a contemporary extension, resulting in a home of rare character and modern luxury. The seamless blend of historic craftsmanship and sophisticated design creates a living environment that combines period warmth with everyday practicality.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a stunning vaulted sitting room, complete with a feature fireplace and log burner. Bi fold doors open into the orangery, allowing the spaces to be enjoyed either separately as a cosy retreat or together as a larger entertaining area.
The dining room, with its exposed beams, leads through and down into the modern kitchen. This thoughtfully designed space features sleek contemporary cabinetry, two integrated ovens and appliances and a breakfast bar with integrated wine fridge, flows effortlessly into a stylish sitting area. Here, a vaulted ceiling, skylights and two sets of bi fold doors create a bright, open atmosphere with direct access to the wrap around terrace, which enjoys views of the neighbouring stream and fields beyond.
A versatile study/playroom/gym features ample built in storage and two pairs of doors opening directly onto the terrace, enhancing the connection with the garden.
The ground floor also includes a cloakroom, a family room with a secondary staircase leading to Bedroom 4, a further ground floor bedroom (Bedroom 5)—ideal as a study or guest room—and a separate utility room. Wide wooden floorboards run throughout the ground floor of the property, creating a seamless flow and complementing both the period features and modern finishes.

A particularly impressive feature is the roof terrace, accessed from the landing and enclosed by glass balustrades. This fabulous outdoor space provides an elevated vantage point from which to enjoy far reaching views across open countryside and surrounding fields—an ideal setting for morning coffee or evening relaxation.
The property sits on a level plot of approx 0.3 of an acre, largely laid to lawn and framed by mature hedging, with a natural stream providing an attractive boundary to the rear.
