Situation

Compton House is located on the edge of Monk Sherborne, a very sought after and quiet village located just to the north of Basingstoke. Within the village there is a church and a pub and it falls within the catchment area of the highly regarded Priory primary school located in a neighbouring village. Basingstoke offers a comprehensive range of leisure, recreational and education needs.

Commuting is excellent with Junction 6 of the M3 being within a short drive at Basingstoke, and with the mainline station in Basingstoke providing fast and frequent services to London Waterloo from 45 minutes.

The property

Compton House is a comfortable detached modern family home built in the early 1970s and extended in 1990. It is a lovely home with a superb south-easterly outlook over its own land towards woodland to the rear which is enjoyed by the principal rooms, and has been in the same ownership for the last 45 years.

On the ground floor, the glazed front door opens to a spacious reception hall from which the staircase rises and turns to the galleried first floor landing. The dual aspect drawing room, dining room, kitchen and octagonal breakfast room all enjoy the view to the rear, and there is also a sitting room, utility room and cloakroom.

On the first floor the master bedroom has an en suite bathroom and this and two of the other bedrooms overlook the rear. There is a further bedroom and study overlooking the front, and the family bathroom.


Outside

The property is set back from the road and approached over a private gravel driveway which leads to an expansive area of gravel which provides ample parking in front of the double garage. The private front garden is enclosed by mature hedging and has deep flower and shrub beds. The rear garden is primarily laid to lawn with a full width paved terrace. There are mature hedges to either side and a fence with gated access to its own paddock (designated as parkland) which extends to just over two acres.
