A lovely detached five bedroom cottage in one of Hampshire’s most favoured villages within the South Downs National Park.

THE PROPERTY The Cross is a pretty cottage in a popular Hampshire village within the South Downs National Park. The generous driveway with ample parking is accessed via wide gates and the large garage with cellar and studio above is situated to one side of this area. Steps lead down to the front path and up to the porch and front door opening into the reception hall with woodburner. The sitting room is a lovely light space with open fireplace and exposed beams providing period character. The kitchen/breakfast room is well equipped with fitted units, has attractive French doors opening onto the garden and benefits from a good utility room off it and downstairs cloakroom/shower beyond. A formal dining room and family room are off the hallway and there is also a study off the living room. On the first floor the main bedroom is south facing and has an ensuite bathroom and dressing area with views over the garden. There are three further double bedrooms, a fifth single room and a large shower room leading off the landing.

LOCATION Upper Farringdon is one of East Hampshire's favoured villages with an active community, secluded and rural yet remarkably accessible, Alton is just over 4 miles away and Petersfield just over 11 miles to the south. There are miles of local footpaths to explore and bridlepaths directly from the village for those who ride and also a fantastic network of local lanes providing country cycle routes. The nearest shopping facilities are in Alton and the A31 provides good regional transport links to Winchester and Farnham.



Hampshire is well catered for with top performing state and independent schools in Alton, Petersfield, Winchester and Farnham all within easy reach of The Cross.

OUTSIDE The attractive garden has various borders which have been planted for year-round interest, a formal area of lawn close to the house and another area which has been used as a play area and now has raised beds for vegetables. There are mature trees and hedges and fences on the boundaries providing privacy to the whole garden area.



The large outbuildings comprising double garage with cellar and studio above and the home office/gym are brilliant extra features which offer versatile opportunities.



All in all a fantastic house with brilliant outbuildings in a very popular village.
