Property description
The feeling of space is immediate with a large reception hall providing access into each of the principal rooms. The very generous living accommodation includes an exceptionally well proportioned double aspect sitting room opening into both the conservatory and dining room. The accommodation is ideally suited for family living with a light and spacious double aspect kitchen/breakfast room with an Aga and an adjoining second dining room and study. The property also has the considerable benefit of a very large games/family room with sliding doors opening out to the rear garden. The house was designed to take full advantage of the setting with access from each of the principal rooms and the kitchen to the rear garden. The first floor accommodation is of equal merit and includes a very large principal bedroom suite with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom. There are three further bedrooms including a second bedroom suite and a family bathroom.
Outside
The partly walled gardens and grounds are a very special feature of the house and have been landscaped to take full advantage of the fine and secluded mature village setting. The house is approached via a tarmac driveway and a pair of wrought iron gates providing ample parking and access to the double garage. The garden is principally to the rear of the house with broad areas of paved terrace and lawns, flower and shrub borders and a variety of young and mature trees. Within the garden there is a thatched outdoor summer house together with an outdoor heated swimming pool with a retractable roof. To one corner of the garden there is a timber shed and green house.
Situation
The house stands within the conservation area and next door to Jane Austen’s former house in the heart of the historic village of Chawton. Chawton is one of the prettiest and most unspoilt villages in Hampshire and is set within the northern borders of the South Downs National Park. There is an active community with a church, primary school, ‘The Greyfriars’ public house and café. The village is home to Jane Austen’s House and Museum, a Grade I listed building, with a lovely landscaped garden. The surrounding countryside provides ample opportunity for a number of country pursuits. The thriving market town of Alton has a good range of individual shops, Waitrose food shop and M&S Simply Food, sports centre, two secondary schools, 6th form college and railway station to London Waterloo. The A31 provides a link to the A3 and M3 with routes to London, the South West and beyond.
