House For Sale £895,000
A delightful character cottage with views over fields situated on the rural fringes of the sought after village of Liss with half an acre garden and a near level 0.7 mile walk to the local shops and mainline railway station.
LOCATION: Clarks Cottage is situated on the fringes of the sought after Hampshire village of Liss. Positioned along a quiet country lane adjacent to farmland, the location offers the perfect balance of a rural feeling with the practicalities of being only a comfortable 0.7 mile walk from the village centre. Situated in the South Downs National Park, Liss provides shops for all day-to-day needs, a mainline station with direct trains to London Waterloo, primary schools and is in the catchment area for the highly regarded secondary schools of Bohunt in Liphook and TPS in Petersfield (both rated "Outstanding" by OFSTED). Liss Triangle, the local community centre, a wonderful former village school, provides the location for numerous clubs and societies, First Steps pre-school and the Triangle after school club. There are also fitness classes, a coffee shop and cinema events. The village also has a modern sports pavilion which serves as the home to 1st Liss Scouts as well as other clubs and societies. The A3 bypasses the village, and provides easy access to the south coast and the M25 towards London. The Hindhead tunnel has enhanced the attraction of this sought after location, potentially attracting people wishing to move out from the traditional commuter belt and suburbs but still being able to return to the larger cities for work. The other nearby towns of Petersfield, Alton and Haslemere are all easily accessible, as are the cities of Chichester, Portsmouth and Winchester.
DESCRIPTION: With origins believed to date back to the 18th Century, Clarks Cottage has been recently modernised and extended to create a wonderful blend of traditional charm and contemporary comfort. Downstairs there is a spacious dining room equipped with log burner, cloakroom and a well-appointed kitchen with utility area. A centrally positioned snug leads into a light and airy sitting room with impressive marble electric fireplace and French doors leading out onto the garden. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a study, and a family bathroom. The two main bedrooms both have fitted wardrobes and all three boast lovely views over neighbouring countryside.
OUTSIDE The grounds are approximately half an acre in total and are mainly laid to lawn, but with plenty of scope for further planting should this be desired. The property has a block-paved driveway providing parking for several cars and a barn-style double garage with electric doors, newly built in 2022. The impressive gardens follow the design of Ann-Marie Powell Gardens of Petersfield. An historic farmyard adjacent to the property now forms part of the grounds and has been planted with numerous flowering trees, a hedgerow and a pond. Recently unearthed footings of two barns also offer scope for further imaginative landscaping, and one is already earmarked in the Planning Permission for a small pavilion. The nature of the grounds makes them ideal for entertaining or for enjoying the 'good life'. Clarks Cottage is a superb character home and a viewing is highly recommended in order to fully appreciate the setting and the accommodation on offer.
Additional information. The property is connected to mains water and electricity. The central heating is provided by electric night storage heaters. Whilst there is no gas supply to the specific area, an oil or LPG central heating system could be installed should this be an alteration a new owner wishes to make. The property has private drainage. The property is located within South Downs National Park however it is not a listed building. The council tax band is E and the local authority is East Hampshire District Council.
