Description

Occupying an exceptional position on the edge of Whiteparish, this outstanding residence is widely regarded as one of the village's most iconic homes. Set well back from the road and approached via a sweeping driveway, the property enjoys complete privacy, a truly unique and serene setting, and uninterrupted views across rolling countryside. Opportunities to acquire a home of this calibre, in such a remarkable location, rarely come to the market.

Dating from the early 1900s, the cottage seamlessly combines timeless character with the comforts of modern living. The current owners have undertaken a meticulous renovation programme, carefully preserving the property's architectural charm while enhancing it to an exacting standard throughout.

The welcoming entrance hall provides access to the principal reception spaces. At the heart of the home is a beautifully handcrafted kitchen with a separate utility area, flowing effortlessly into a stunning dining space with a vaulted ceiling. French doors open onto a substantial rear terrace, perfectly positioned to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and spectacular rural outlook. The dining area benefits from sweeping 180-degree views across the property's own grounds and neighbouring farmland, while the elegant living room, complete with an open fireplace and west-facing aspect, provides a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the evening sun.

Further ground floor accommodation includes a study, snug and cloakroom, offering excellent flexibility for modern family life and home working.

Upstairs, there are four generously proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

Externally, the property continues to impress. Adjoining the house is a substantial outbuilding incorporating a double garage with boarded loft storage, a heated and powered workshop, and a spacious games room with plumbing already in place for a shower room if desired. Above is an additional room currently utilised as a gym, offering further versatility. A separate brick and timber barn provides excellent additional storage.

The beautifully maintained gardens enjoy sunshine throughout the day, creating a peaceful and private environment from sunrise to sunset. Beyond the formal gardens lies approximately 9 acres of pastureland, an increasingly rare feature that further enhances the property's appeal and sense of space.

This exceptional home offers far more than beautifully presented accommodation. With its extensive grounds, versatile outbuildings, uninterrupted countryside views and unrivalled setting, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of Whiteparish's most desirable homes.
