Sweet slumber

The first floor has a generous principal bedroom suite with a walk-in wardrobe, en suite bathroom, and a large window overlooking the garden – making it a peaceful retreat with space to unwind. Three of the further five bedrooms benefit from en suite shower rooms, while the remaining two are served by a large family bathroom.

All six bedrooms are good-sized doubles, five of which have fitted wardrobes, and all enjoy plenty of natural light. One could easily be used as a second study or studio. The bathrooms feature high-quality fittings, with large baths and spacious showers, giving a clean and contemporary finish. Some of the bathrooms are barely used and remain in near-new condition – a testament to the careful ownership and light use of the house.

The great outdoors

The house sits within a secluded 0.6 acre plot, with a wide terrace extending across the rear – perfect for outdoor dining and sunny relaxation. Beyond, a generous lawn stretches out towards well-planted borders and a lightly wooded boundary, with a handful of other houses beyond – set back and not overlooking.

Among the highlights are a striking Japanese maple, with vibrant red foliage adding seasonal beauty, and a majestic oak tree offering gentle shade and a sense of maturity. The garden is peaceful and well screened, filled with established planting that gives it colour, texture and privacy throughout the year.

A private driveway at the front of the house provides ample parking and leads to the detached double garage with electric doors.

In the area

As well as a friendly village community on your doorstep, the nearby hall is at the heart of local life, offering yoga, Pilates, art classes and a popular bridge club. The village also has a children’s play area and a football pitch, perfect for younger families. There are also stunning country walks you can take straight from the house – ideal for dog owners and nature lovers alike.

Trains from Alton reach London Waterloo in just over an hour – and as it’s the start of the line, you’re usually guaranteed a seat.

Local schools include The Butts Primary School in Alton and St Mary’s in the nearby village of Bentworth. For older children, Amery Hill School is close by. Independent options include Lord Wandsworth College, Winchester College and St Swithun’s.
