4 Bedroom Semi-Detached House

Introduction

Nestled on the outskirts of the tranquil village of Abbotts Ann, this beautiful Cottage is a delightful semi-detached character home that has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully enhanced over the last 20 years. Surrounded by the rolling Hampshire countryside, this charming three-bedroom property offers not only period charm but also modern living conveniences. Additionally, a detached one-bedroom annexe provides an ideal space for independent living, guests, or perhaps a home office, making this property incredibly versatile.

Property Information

The property presents a wonderful blend of old-world charm and modern enhancements, creating a homely yet luxurious space. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the light and airy open-plan kitchen and dining room, which has been meticulously designed with high-end appliances and quality fixtures. French doors invite an abundance of natural light, and lead seamlessly out onto a large, well-maintained patio—ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. The kitchen is complemented by a separate utility room, complete with ample space for appliances and finished to the same exacting standards as the kitchen, offering convenience without compromising style.

The lounge is a warm and inviting space, featuring a charming log burner that adds character and warmth to the room, perfect for cozy winter evenings. Solid wood floors run throughout, providing a sense of timeless elegance. A snug, which could easily function as a study or occasional bedroom, adds further flexibility to the ground floor. The ground floor also benefits from a spacious entrance porch, ideal for coat and shoe storage, and a convenient cloakroom.

First Floor

Upstairs, you will find three generously proportioned double bedrooms, each exuding its own charm. The master bedroom, with its beautiful countryside views, includes fitted wardrobes and a walk-in closet, providing ample storage while maintaining the room's elegant aesthetic. The remaining two bedrooms are equally well-sized, each benefitting from far-reaching rural views and period features that echo the character of the property. The family bathroom has been updated to a modern standard, featuring a large walk-in shower, WC, and additional storage options, all controlled by an intelligent central heating system.

Outside

The property is set on a generous plot that offers a range of outdoor spaces for relaxation and enjoyment. To the front of the house, a private driveway provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, and features a convenient electric vehicle charging point. The block-paved driveway offers both practicality and curb appeal. The rear garden is a tranquil oasis, secluded and bordered by mature hedges and trees, offering both shade and sunlight throughout the day. A large wooden shed at the front of the property is ideal for garden storage, while a brick-built outbuilding at the rear could be used for storing logs, bicycles, or even be transformed into a workshop or studio. The neighbouring fields offer both breath-taking views and an ideal space for outdoor activities, whether for walking or children's play. The Hampshire trails run through this land, with easy access to scenic walks and just a 10-minute stroll into Abbotts Ann.

The Annexe

A particularly unique feature of this property is the detached one-bedroom annexe, positioned discreetly to the side and rear of the main house. Fully self-contained, this annexe offers its own living area, a double bedroom, a well-appointed galley kitchen with modern appliances, and a stylish wet room complete with shower and WC. This additional space has been finished to the highest standards, making it an ideal retreat for guests, an elderly relative, or even as a rental opportunity.
