River Hill, Binsted, GU34

An exceptionally spacious individual village home enjoying a superb elevated position with far-reaching views across the surrounding Hampshire countryside and set within the South Downs National Park. Bright, beautifully proportioned accommodation has been thoughtfully designed to maximise the timeless views.

The generous accommodation includes a very spacious twin aspect kitchen/dining/sitting room extending to 24'2" (7.3m) with bi-fold doors framing the views and opening directly out to the terrace and gardens. The bespoke kitchen is centred around a substantial island and breakfast bar, complemented by an induction hob and extractor, fitted cabinets, pan drawers, dishwasher and extensive work surfaces. Equally impressive, the dual-aspect sitting room extends to 18'7" (5.6m) and includes a wood-burning stove together with bi-fold doors that draw the outside in.

Further well-balanced accommodation is very well suited to modern family living and includes a snug/2nd sitting room and home office together with a utility room and ground floor cloakroom. The generous double bedrooms are all enhanced by multiple aspects and vaulted ceilings, ensuring an abundance of natural light, and include an excellent principal suite with en suite bathroom. A spacious reception hall and substantial landing further enhance the sense of space, with the latter providing an ideal study or work-from-home area.

Careful attention was also given to the specification, with aluminium double-glazed windows and network points serving most rooms.

The property presents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional village home, purposefully designed to embrace one of the area's most captivating and enduring settings.
