Ref: JM1394 Howzat! Is there a more idyllic family home spot than opposite the cricket pitch in a small semi-rural village? Chain free and charming, it has a sociable ground floor, a secluded south facing back garden and three bedrooms (two with ensuites). If you're keen to swap traffic noise for the sound of leather on willow, this charming chain free semi-detached home might be the fresh start your family’s been looking for.  Right opposite the village cricket pitch and parish hall in one of Hampshire’s most sought after villages, it’s perfect if you’re looking for a slower pace of life without losing family-friendly space and practicality. Inside, the living spaces are perfectly laid out for modern family life. The spacious sitting room, complete with exposed beams and a cosy wood burner, feels warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in. Just off here, there's a handy office space – ideal if you work from home, or need somewhere quiet for homework hour.The modern kitchen / breakfast room leads straight into a light and bright conservatory that doubles as a dining room – and opens out to a lovely south-facing garden. It’s a versatile setup that’s perfect for keeping an eye on the kids or hosting sunny weekend barbecues with friends.  Upstairs, the home continues to deliver. The main bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom with a gorgeous rolltop bath, while bedroom two benefits from an ensuite shower. All three bedrooms have built-in storage and the layout makes for practical, easy day-to-day living. Outside, the secluded south facing back garden is private, mature and perfect for a morning cuppa or an evening glass of something chilled. There’s off-street parking at the front and a detached single garage with extra storage space. The location can’t get much more “classic English village” than this. Ropley is a thriving Hampshire community with a local village shop, primary school (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted), a popular parish hall and even a traditional red phone box (the latter two being just on the other side of the quiet lane). Despite the quiet semi-rural setting, being just off the A31 means you’ve also got quick access to Alresford and Winchester, with fast and frequent rail links to London from Alton, Petersfield or Winchester. With no onward chain, a charming layout and one of the best locations in the village, Ivy Cottage is a rare find – and ready for its next chapter.
