A charming Grade II listed cottage, perfectly blending an abundance of character with modern convenience, in a gorgeous setting adjoining Hampshire countryside.
Description
Embley Cottage is a charming cottage in the picturesque village of West Stratton, surrounded by beautiful countryside, yet benefitting from convenient access into Winchester. This characterful Grade II listed cottage perfectly blends traditional charm with modern day comforts, in a wonderful countryside environment.
On the ground floor is a welcoming entrance lobby, leading
to a well-appointed kitchen with generous storage and a range of built in appliances. The sitting room is a bright, cosy and well-proportioned living space with exposed wooden beams and a traditional fireplace, enjoying views and with access to, the landscaped garden. The layout leads seamlessly into the dining room, a generous and versatile area perfect for entertaining or family gatherings, again overlooking the garden.
On the first floor are two generous double bedrooms, both benefitting from delightful views, but notably the principal bedroom which is an impressive c.17ft providing ample space for furnishing and relaxation. A stylish shower-room completes the first floor accommodation.
The property is approached via a path which runs from the parking area, through the attractive cottage garden, leading to the front door. The rear garden is beautifully maintained, offering a sense of privacy while still enjoying open countryside views. Adjacent to the cottage is a patio area, providing the perfect sport for outdoor dining, with space for a table and chairs. The lawn is bordered by mature shrubs, hedges and plants, offering colour throughout the year.
In all, a truly superb environment with delightful rural outlook.
