Full description

Set in Greatham Village, this charming cottage combines a quiet, semi-rural setting with easy access to the A3, making it ideal for those wanting countryside living without sacrificing convenience.

The property has been thoughtfully updated and offers a flexible layout suited to modern living. The sitting room is a cosy yet bright space with a bay window and fireplace, while the dining room, centred around a log burning stove, creates a warm and inviting area for entertaining. The kitchen has been recently modernised, and the ground floor is completed by a bathroom and a useful utility room with access to the garden.

Upstairs, the main bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is a generous size and leads through to a further room, perfect as a home office, dressing room or occasional bedroom. On the top floor, the third bedroom enjoys far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The rear courtyard provides a private, low-maintenance space, complemented by an insulated outbuilding ideal for storage or hobbies. To the front, the garden is laid to lawn and enclosed by hedging, creating a pleasant setting to enjoy the village surroundings, with residents parking available along the lane.

A characterful and well-presented cottage in a sought-after village location, offering a great balance of charm, space and practicality.

Why live in Petersfield?

Petersfield often features on lists of the best places to live and work and was recently voted one of the top 10 most desirable market towns in England; The Guardian went so far as to describe Petersfield as ‘a commuter’s Nirvana, the urban equivalent of a foot rub and a G&T’.

We have a delightful choice of properties in the area, from beautiful character cottages, some dating back 500 years, to coach house style homes and large rural retreats to modern family homes. There’s also a thriving rental market here as the convenient location, attractive setting and abundant facilities make this an excellent base for those working in the wider area or simply wanting a perfect place to raise a family.

One of the major attractions for families is the choice of world-class schools – The Petersfield School is rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted and Bohunt School at nearby Liphook is one of the top performing state schools in the country. In the private sector, Churcher’s College and Bedales are located in the town, while Ditcham Park School is just to the southeast.

We have cosmopolitan range of shops, restaurants and cafés, with most major retailers represented. The Petersfield Market is held twice a week in The Square and a Hampshire Farmer’s Market is held on the first Sunday of every month. We also have many sports facilities, including two golf clubs, the Taro Leisure Centre and the Petersfield Open Air Swimming Pool, which, despite being open to the elements, is always heated to an average of 27 degrees.

But what really sets Petersfield apart is the beautiful countryside and its pretty villages. These include Selborne with its post office, primary school and choice of two pubs, Steep Village, which sits on wooded slopes known as The Hangers and was once home to Sir Alec Guinness, Buriton Village, which sits between Petersfield and the Queen Elizabeth Country Park and Rogate and Rake to the east within in the Rother Valley.
