In a tranquil setting on the edge of open countryside, an attractive period barn with planning to convert into one fascinating house

THE PROPERTY Cart Lodge presents a great opportunity to create a contemporary home on the edge of the well regarded village of Buriton in the heart of The South Downs National Park. The design is by the multi award winning practice Rural Office for Architecture and consists of a lovely Grade II listed barn, with the grounds enjoying views south towards the South Downs. A lot of time and effort has gone into the design and of particular note is the large open plan living space with vaulted ceiling and the Master Bedroom Suite, with the bedroom looing south to the Downs. One of the bedrooms on the first floor has been designed to use as a further reception room if desired. Outside is a terrace area leading to the paddock. In all a rare chance to create your own 'Grand Design', and one that has to be viewed to be truly appreciated.

OUTSIDE At the northern end of the barn there is a parking area. On the southern side there is a terrace area which then leads to the paddock, and the grounds as a whole total about 0.33 acres. There are attractive views to the Downs from the majority of the outside areas.

LOCATION Buriton is a thriving village in the heart of The South Downs National Park, adjacent to The Queen Elizabeth Country Park and has a pub and primary school as well as a large village pond. Petersfield and its comprehensive range of facilities including Waitrose and a mainline station with train services to London Waterloo in around an hour, is 3.4 miles away. The area has an excellent range of schools which include Churcher's College, Bedales and Ditcham Park. The A3 provides good regional transport links to the M25 and beyond and the larger centres of Winchester, Guildford and Chichester are all within reasonable driving distance, as are the harbours and creeks of the South Coast. There are a good number of footpaths and bridleways in the immediate area including The South Downs Way and The Sussex Border Path.

Services

The property has the ability to be connected to mains water and electricity and into the shared private drainage system with the other properties. This is a private system that then pumps the waste water into the mains drainage system. It is proposed that a ground source heat pump provides hot water and heating.
