Description:

A charming period cottage in a tranquil oasis in the centre of this Downland village.

THE PROPERTY Jenny Lake Cottage is a charming end of terrace period home set in a tranquil oasis in the heart of the village behind the main street. The house is bursting with character and is deceptively spacious. The ground floor offers a large sitting room with wood burning stove, a light kitchen/breakfast room with ample storage opening into a bright garden room/dining room. Upstairs consists of two large double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

OUTSIDE To the south and east of the cottage is a pretty garden with two terraces leading to an area of lawn and beyond this, extensive flower and herbaceous borders. It makes for a very relaxing space, a classic English cottage garden. Located in the garden there is a detached timber building currently used as a home office and in one corner there is also a useful storage area where the oil tank is located. Beyond the garden boundary runs a pretty stream, adding to the tranquility.

LOCATION South Harting is a thriving village in the heart of The South Downs National Park between Petersfield and Chichester. The village has a pub, school, shop and post office and many clubs and societies. Petersfield and its comprehensive range of facilities including Waitrose, a mainline station with train services to London Waterloo in around an hour is just 4 miles away. There is an excellent range of schools including TPS, Bedales and Churcher's College in Petersfield. The other popular local school, Ditcham Park, is just 4.2 miles from the house, and Harting Primary School in the village.



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 surrounding area including The South Downs Way and The Sussex Border Path.
