Tichborne Down, Alresford

Situated on Tichborne Down, not far from the golf course, a very pretty mid terraced period cottage with a lovely garden.  The property is approached via a well-tended, enclosed front garden with a wild bird cherry tree and there is wisteria, roses and clematis growing up the front of the house for a proper cottage feel.  Inside, the sitting room has an open fire with brass hood and the main living area has been opened up to offer living/dining and study options.  To the rear of the property, an L-shaped kitchen breakfast room with breakfast bar and windows with a view of the garden.  The bathroom is accessed off the rear of the reception room and is fitted with shower over bath as well as some storage. 

Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, the front one benefitting from an original fireplace as well as fitted storage.  The rear bedroom has lovely views over the garden.  

The rear garden is pretty, laid to lawn with a patio area and seating as well as an arch leading to a footpath giving rear access to the terrace of cottages. Beyond this is a further area of garden which, whilst not currently forming part of this freehold, is presently used by the owners and the legal owner of this extra land is evidently untraceable.  The owners of the other cottages have claimed the gardens as part of their freehold title, and this could be done here. This extra parcel extends to about 80ft x 12ft and is laid to lawn with a shed and mature apple trees which belongs to our clients. This area has been maintained by our clients for the duration of their ownership (over 20 years).

Alresford is a beautiful Georgian town known for its variety of independent shops, restaurants and inns located in stunning surroundings on the edge of the South Downs National Park.

The cathedral city of Winchester is about 7 miles away and there is easy access to the south coast, the midlands and London via the road network.
