LOCATION West Harting is a hamlet that nestles at the foot of the Downs, in the heart of the South Downs National Park between Petersfield and Midhurst, under 2 miles from the larger village of South Harting which has a pub, school, shop with post office and many clubs and societies. Petersfield and its comprehensive range of facilities including Waitrose and a mainline station with train services to London Waterloo in around an hour is 3.3 miles away with an excellent range of schools including Bedales, Churcher's College and Ditcham Park. The A3 at Petersfield 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.



OUTSIDE Approached through a wooden five bar gate which leads to a shingled drive with parking for several vehicles and access to the double garage. The delightful gardens are a lovely feature of the cottage which are principally lawned to the front and to the rear there is a terrace area, ideally suited for dining and entertaining, with rising steps leading to the gently inclining, southerly facing, lawned garden beyond. In all the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 0.4 acres (0.161 ha).
