Believed to date from the 1480s, with exceptional period character throughout
Wealth of original features including exposed beams, wattle and daub, inglenook fireplace and original brickwork

Sought-after Sutton Scotney village location, around six miles from Winchester with excellent road and rail links
Situated in the heart of the picturesque village of Sutton Scotney, Pear Tree Cottage is an enchanting Grade II listed detached thatched residence, believed to date from the 1480s and thought to have originally served as a buttery. Coming to the market for the first time in approximately 25 years, having remained within the same family throughout that period, this exceptional three-bedroom home is beautifully presented and combines remarkable period character with thoughtfully introduced modern comforts.
The cottage retains an abundance of historic features, including exposed oak beams, traditional wattle and daub, original brickwork and a striking steeply pitched thatched roof. The current owners have maintained and enhanced the property with great care, with improvements including oil-fired central heating, renewed electrics, bespoke oak internal doors and the addition of underfloor heating downstairs, all introduced sympathetically with the building’s heritage in mind.
The ground floor offers superb living and entertaining space. A magnificent dining room features exposed beams, a traditional inglenook fireplace and underfloor heating, while the stylish fitted kitchen benefits from integrated appliances and attractive stone flooring. The welcoming sitting room provides further exposed beams and an open fireplace, creating a warm and inviting setting. A cloakroom completes the ground-floor accommodation.
On the first floor are two generous bedrooms, including a charming principal bedroom with a modern en-suite shower room, together with a contemporary family bathroom. The second floor provides a delightful third bedroom, offering versatile accommodation.
Outside, Pear Tree Cottage enjoys a generous and secluded private garden, enclosed by mature hedging and attractive fencing, with a pleasant seating area and timber garden shed. A detached garage, with front and rear access, is complemented by a gravelled parking area providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles.
Ideally positioned within this sought-after Hampshire village, Pear Tree Cottage combines an attractive rural setting with excellent accessibility. Winchester city centre lies approximately six miles away, while convenient access to the M3, the wider motorway network provides excellent road connections across the region. Nearby railway stations provide regular services from Winchester or Micheldever making the property particularly well suited to those requiring convenient commuter links to the capital.
With local amenities close at hand which include a doctors surgery, and bus service into Winchester, Pear Tree Cottage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully preserved three -bedroom historic home, offered to the market for the first time in a quarter of a century, combining quintessential village charm, exceptional character, excellent connectivity and modern-day convenience.
