Description:

An attractive Victorian property of character with a delightful garden and garage, enjoying a fine central town location.

THE PROPERTY High Bank is an attractive Victorian property of character, enjoying a fine, central town location and a delightful southerly aspect rear garden. Arranged over two floors and with three reception rooms, the house affords comfortable, well proportioned and flexible accommodation throughout with notable features including sash windows, attractive fireplaces, picture rails, an Aga in the kitchen and offers scope for further enlargement, subject to acquiring the necessary consents. The first floor was adapted by the previous owner to increase the light and to offer a comfortable, relaxed landing area to sit and overlook the gardens.

OUTSIDE Set back from the road and enjoying a slightly raised and 'discreet' position, the property is approached through a front gate with a central tiled path set between two lawned areas of garden. The rear garden is southerly facing and offers a feeling of a 'hidden oasis' for a property located so close to the centre of the town. The garden is principally lawned with various mature shrub and floral borders, fully enclosed and enjoying a high degree of privacy housing a small pond, summerhouse and garden shed. A side gate from the rear garden provides access to the single garage. In all the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 0.2 acres (0.08 ha).

LOCATION High Bank is ideally situated in the heart of Petersfield, offering easy walking access to both the town centre and the mainline station. Petersfield itself has a comprehensive range of facilities including Waitrose and a mainline station with train services to London Waterloo in just over an hour. The Petersfield area has an excellent range of schools including Bedales, Churcher's College, Ditcham Park and in the state sector TPS. 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 number of good footpaths and bridleways in the surrounding area including the South Downs Way, Hangers Way and Sussex Border Path.
