Nestled in the picturesque village of Baughurst, this charming five-bedroom detached cottage offers a rare blend of character, space, and versatility, all set within approximately two acres of beautifully maintained grounds.

The ground floor presents a wonderfully flexible layout, ideal for both family living and entertaining. A welcoming reception hall leads to multiple reception rooms, including a cosy living room with a feature fireplace, a separate study perfect for home working, and a spacious dining room for formal gatherings. The farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room forms the heart of the home, offering ample space for everyday living and enjoying views over the gardens. Additional practical spaces such as a utility room and cloakroom enhance the functionality of the property.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom, all served by family bathroom facilities. The remaining bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged on the ground floor, offering excellent flexibility for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.

Externally, the property truly excels. Set within approximately two acres, the grounds provide a mix of lawned gardens, mature trees, and open space—perfect for outdoor entertaining, recreation, or simply enjoying the tranquillity of the surrounding countryside. A swimming pool adds a wonderful lifestyle element, ideal for relaxing in the warmer months or hosting family and friends. A separate outbuilding incorporates a car port and store, offering excellent storage or potential for further use (subject to the necessary permissions).

This delightful cottage combines rural charm with practical living space, all within easy reach of local amenities and transport links, making it an ideal family home in a sought-after village setting.

Baughurst is a charming and well-regarded village set in the north of Hampshire, close to the Berkshire border, offering an appealing blend of rural tranquillity and everyday convenience. Surrounded by attractive countryside, the area is ideal for those who enjoy walking, cycling, and outdoor pursuits, with a network of footpaths and nearby woodland to explore.

Despite its peaceful setting, Baughurst benefits from a strong sense of community and a range of local amenities, including a village shop, post office, primary school, and traditional pubs. For a wider selection of shopping, dining, and leisure facilities, the nearby towns of Tadley and Basingstoke are both within easy reach.

The village is also well placed for commuters, with good road connections via the A340 and A4, providing access to Reading and beyond.
