Beautifully fitted with handcrafted oak cabinetry, stone worktops, and a large central island with hob, extractor, and breakfast bar, this space is perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. A tiled floor with underfloor heating, electric AGA, double ovens, butler sink, and ample room for freestanding appliances complete the specification.

The property enjoys a peaceful position close to the historic village of Wickham—an enchanting destination rich in charm and character, surrounded by the picturesque countryside of Hampshire’s Meon Valley and the South Downs National Park. Though perfectly rural, Wickham lies within easy reach of Winchester, Southampton, and Portsmouth, offering an appealing blend of countryside tranquillity and convenience. The village boasts an excellent selection of independent shops, welcoming cafés, traditional pubs, and acclaimed restaurants. For outdoor enthusiasts, the Meon Valley Trail provides scenic routes for walking, cycling, and horse riding. The nearby M27 ensures excellent road connections, and mainline railway stations are easily accessible for commuters.

The grounds extend to approximately two acres and are a particular feature of the property. The front is approached through electric gates, leading to a sweeping driveway with ample parking for several vehicles and access to a range of outbuildings, including a workshop and garden store.

The extensive gardens are mainly laid to lawn with mature hedgerows, trees, and well-established planting providing privacy and seasonal colour. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to include a large lawned area, several paved seating terraces ideal for outdoor dining, and beautiful wooded surroundings complete with a stream—creating a tranquil and secluded setting.
