Situated on the outskirts of Titchfield Village overlooking beautiful countryside to the front and rear, an attractive Edwardian property built in 1904, extending to 1252 square feet and offering generous and versatile reception space, three bedrooms, parking, a single garage and large west facing back garden. The property is accessed via a gravel driveway with parking for four cars which in turn leads to the garage.
This much-loved family home has been owned by my clients for over twenty years and during their time of ownership they have totally renovated and extended the cottage. On entering, the hallway draws you into the heart of the home and the Sitting Room is a well-proportioned space in which to entertain and relax featuring original pine flooring and centring on a woodburning stove; a door leads to the Conservatory. Leading off this room is a later extension built in French oak offering a versatile room perfect for a third bedroom or Study of double proportions with a beautiful, vaulted ceiling with beams and French doors to outside; this room is complimented by a Wetroom and a Utility area and leads to the integral garage. The Kitchen/Dining Room is also a generous size with a built-in dresser; the Kitchen has been fitted with solid wooden cupboards with undercounter lighting, an oven and electric hob. To the rear of the cottage is a further Utility area with a sink and storage cupboards leading into a large Conservatory built in 2010 which spans the width of the house overlooking the garden. Upstairs a spacious landing leads to two, part vaulted, double bedrooms and they are complimented by a generous Family Bathroom with views as far as the Isle of Wight. A particular selling feature of this lovely home is the garden which backs onto a farm; there is an area of lawn which is flanked by deep perennial borders with pathways running along the boundary. My clients have planted numerous apple, pear, cherry and plum trees, as well as a mature birch, rowan and hazelnut trees. There is also a wildlife pond and many trailing plants such as a wisteria, jasmine and honeysuckle. An arched arbour leads to a fantastic organic vegetable garden with numerous beds, including an asparagus bed and superb greenhouse extending to nearly 25 feet in length. Additionally, there is a brick outbuilding with power and light and a covered pergola with a wood store below.
The property is situated in a semi rural location a stone’s throw from the Titchfield Canal, which can be accessed via a private track across the road and less than a mile from Titchfield Village itself, which offers a range of amenities which include, convenience stores, hairdressers, jeweller’s and wine garden, butchers, post office, take away, pubs, cafe, doctors surgery and a church. The village is conveniently located for the excellent A/M27 road networks and for public transport links with bus stops in the village and train stations at Fareham and Southampton Parkway; the latter with links to London Waterloo in under an hour. Sailing enthusiasts will be drawn to the close proximity to Hill Head beach and The Solent as well as the River Hamble with its world renown sailing facilities. Nature lovers will enjoy the proximity to Titchfield Haven, some 369 acres of woodland and natural wetlands offering a wide variety of wildlife and birdlife.
