Wychbury is located within a well-regarded private estate of Powntley Copse set in secluded woodland, which is located between the Georgian village of Odiham and the historic market town of Alton.

The nearest mainline station is found in Alton. A fast service to London Waterloo via the Basingstoke line is available from nearby Hook and Winchefield Stations (from 58 minutes). Access in the area is superb with the M3 providing access to the A303 and M27, and the A30 and A31 both within easy reach. Wychbury is conveniently located for the two international airports of Heathrow, just 33.5 miles away and Gatwick, which is 59.5 miles away.
There are a number of schools in the area including Alton Convent and Lord Wandsworth College, Robert Mays, Long Sutton Primary School, Alton Sixth Form College, Swithun's School for Girls and Winchester College.
The surrounding rolling Hampshire countryside offers an extensive network of footpaths and bridleways across many miles of beautiful countryside with stunning views.
Description
Wychbury is an attractive property understood to have been built in the 1930's and has subsequently been extended and improved to create an excellent family home. This modern family house has well-presented interiors throughout and provides spacious and versatile accommodation. Benefiting from a south east facing aspect many of the rooms are filled with natural light, creating a bright welcoming environment.
The drawing room is a comfortable family space, which is warmed by a Clearview wood burner with a stone surround and enjoys a triple aspect position with dual French doors leading to the terrace. From here you can enter into the formal dining room, with additional French doors out to the terrace.
The family kitchen is a brilliant family space, with an area for seating in front of French doors giving access to the terrace, as well as a breakfast room with built in seating. The kitchen is beautifully fitted with cabinetry in a traditional style with both granite and solid wood work tops and a double butler sink. Appliances include a Lacanche Range, American style fridge freezer and built in dishwasher.
There is a neighbouring utility room with butler sink, space for two appliances and access out to the side of the property. Further on from the breakfast room is a sitting room/family room with a vaulted ceiling with a lantern and two sets of French doors giving access to the terrace. With six sets of French doors giving access to the south east facing terrace, Wychbury has a wonderful flow between inside and out, perfect for family living in the summer months.
There is also an extensive downstairs cloakroom with a shower, which would allow the study to double up as a ground floor bedroom.
On the first floor is a generous arrangement of bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes, a well-appointed en suite bathroom and enjoys triple aspect views of the garden and the far reaching view beyond. There are a further four bedrooms and a family bathroom.
A loft runs the length of the house, providing excellent storage and opportunity to extend (STPP).
Outside, Wychbury is approached by a gated drive that provides ample space for parking and access to a double garage. Above the garage is a room with electric heating, providing an excellent space for a home office.
The driveway is bordered by flower beds and box hedging and a path that leads to the front door and around the house.
Directly adjoining the rear of the house, is a fabulous terrace and a decorative pergola with established wisterias and vines providing excellent outdoor living and entertaining space. Within the secluded south east facing garden, steps lead down to the expanse of lawn and a variety of mature and impressive trees, stocked borders, and beds all beautifully maintained.
A side garden has been planted formally with box hedging and roses and there is also a vegetable garden with raised beds, a greenhouse and a shed. Further on are more wild and wooded areas providing places for exploring.
Powntley Copse adjoins neighbouring countryside with a network of bridleways and footpaths on towards surrounding villages.
