Full description

Occupying an exceptional elevated position in one of Hambledon's most desirable locations, this unique architect-designed detached residence offers in excess of 3,300 sq ft of highly versatile accommodation, commanding breathtaking panoramic views across the village and the rolling landscape of the South Downs National Park.

Thoughtfully modernised to a high specification by the current owners, the property successfully combines distinctive architectural design with generous family living space, whilst still offering scope for further enhancement in certain areas to suit individual tastes and requirements.

The accommodation is arranged over several levels, creating a characterful and engaging layout. At the heart of the home is an impressive sitting room featuring striking architectural details and a large picture window that perfectly frames the spectacular countryside views while flooding the space with natural light. Further reception space includes a spacious dual-aspect family room and dining area, providing excellent flexibility for both everyday family life and entertaining.

The property offers five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a superb principal suite featuring a dressing area and en-suite shower room. A lower ground floor bedroom suite with its own bathroom presents an ideal space for guests, multi-generational living, or potential annexe accommodation.

Externally, the property enjoys beautifully landscaped and elevated gardens that wrap around the house, complemented by a substantial sun terrace perfectly positioned to take advantage of the stunning outlook and provide an exceptional space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

A particular feature of the property is the adjoining paddock/meadow land extending to approximately two acres, which benefits from separate vehicular access and offers a wealth of possibilities for equestrian use, recreational purposes, or simply enjoying the surrounding countryside setting.

Despite its private and secluded feel, the property remains conveniently located within a sought-after village community offering a range of local amenities, making this a rare opportunity to acquire a truly individual home in an outstanding rural setting.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the setting, views, accommodation and potential this exceptional home has to offer.

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.
