House For Sale £500,000
A stunning example of a grade II listed three bedroom character cottage, part of a late medieval hall dating back to the 16th/17th century, situated opposite water meadows in the beautiful, tranquil, and much sought after village of Exton, in The South Downs National Park. The village is nestled in picturesque countryside offering an abundance of local walks and bridleways at Corhampton Down, Beacon Hill and alongside the River Meon to name a few, and is home to the renowned public house, The Shoe Inn.
The accommodation is superbly presented and is a wonderful blend of original charm and modern living, and features an impressive living room with a vaulted and beamed ceiling and a large apex window. The ground floor also includes a separate dining room and a cottage style kitchen with quarry tiled flooring. To the first floor there are three bedrooms, two of which are good sized doubles, and the third bedroom is currently being used as a hobby room. The main bedrooms offer lovely views over meadows to the front, and are all serviced by a modern family bathroom.
Externally to the front of the property there is a walled garden which is well-stocked with a wide variety of flowers and shrubs and has a brick pathway leading through to a beautiful completely walled rear garden. There is a paved patio area and steps that then lead up to the rest of the garden which is mainly laid to lawn and again well-stocked with a variety of selectively planted flowers and shrubs. There is also a useful brick store with power and light and then a garden shed providing useful storage space.
The village of Exton is ideally situated and only minutes away from the neighbouring market towns of Bishops Waltham, Wickham and Petersfeld, all of which offer a broad range of shops and amenities, the Cathedral City of Winchester and Southampton Airport are also just under half an hour away, with all main motorway access routes also being within easy reach.
