A privately located bungalow with potential (subject to planning) in a remarkable country setting.

THE PROPERTY Lot 1 Squirrels is a privately positioned bungalow with potential to modernise, extend or replace (subject to necessary planning consents) in garden and grounds of some 5 acres with a further 58 acres of broadleaf woodland and pasture available separately (Lot 2). The property will appeal to any nature or wildlife enthusiast and scope for those with equestrian interests given direct access to an adjoining bridlepath and adjacent to Chapel Common and Weavers Down with their miles of natural heathland paths. The additional parcel of woodland and grazing also provides a unique opportunity to retain absolute control of some 63 acres in total.



OUTSIDE A five bar gate opens into a short area of gravelled drive with a path to the front door. The garden is a natural wildlife haven mainly around the rear of the property with lawned areas, a disused swimming pool, several banks of Rhododendrons, shrubs and trees which provide a private sheltered environment. A gate opens from the garden into a large rear paddock which also adjoins an outer area of ground with wildlife pond. Another gate also opens from the paddock onto the adjoining Chapel Common. In all the garden, paddock and boundary woodland extends to about 5.13 acres and provides a fantastic outdoor space for children to free range and enjoy.

LOCATION Squirrels is situated within the South Downs National Park and is part of a secluded small rural hamlet approached via a series of ancient country lanes and tracks adjoining an untouched landscape of Chapel Common and Weavers Down. It is a unique rural position with neighbouring houses for comfort, yet remarkably convenient for Liphook with its wide range of local shopping facilities and station on the Waterloo/Portsmouth line. More comprehensive facilities are available in either Haslemere or Petersfield and there is a fast train to London from Haslemere. There is a superb choice of both state and private schools in the area including Churcher's, Highfield, Bedales, Bohunt School and Six Form College at Liphook. The area is noted for its natural beauty with miles of walks or riding from the doorstep over the surrounding countryside with a good network of footpaths/bridleways or cycling along the local lanes. The Serpents Trail, West Sussex Border Path and Shipwrights Way are all within easy reach. An outdoor family paradise where anyone can free range for miles.
