Kimpton, Andover, Hampshire, SP11

Tucked away in a peaceful and private setting on the edge of a small hamlet, this generous six-bedroom detached home offers an exceptional lifestyle opportunity for a family seeking privacy, space, and the potential to create a bespoke family residence in a sought-after village location.

Originally built in the 1960s, the property sits discreetly back from a country lane, accessed via a long, meandering driveway and benefits from parking to the fore, a garage, storerooms, four stables and a workshop – offering superb potential for redevelopment or refurbishment. Historically, the current owners obtained planning permission to convert the workshop into annexed accommodation, subject to renewal.

Set within approximately 9 acres of land, the grounds comprise a mix of private woodland with winding paths, a paddock, and generous, mature South-facing gardens which includes a vegetable patch, above-ground swimming pool, and a large terrace directly accessible from the main living areas.

Internally, the home is rich with space and flexibility. A covered porch leads into a wide and welcoming entrance hallway, which flows into a study area with fitted cabinetry, a cloakroom, and a family room. The heart of the home is the expansive living and dining rooms, flooded with natural light and enjoying views over the gardens. A separate, contemporary fitted kitchen with adjoining pantry and utility room, a large games/playroom, and an additional cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, is a central landing that serves six well-proportioned bedrooms, five of which are comfortable doubles as well as one single, all with fitted wardrobes and some with wash basins. There are also two modern family bathrooms. The property is bright, well-presented and has excellent storage throughout.
