Situation

The property is located within the Conservation area of Ramsdell, a small and popular village located in delightful rural countryside some five miles to the northwest of Basingstoke. The village itself has a church and recreation ground with cricket and tennis clubs and children's recreation area and falls within the catchment area of the highly regarded Priory Primary School. There are some excellent private schools within driving distance.

The nearby villages of Charter Alley, Sherborne St John and Baughurst have public houses and shops, but more extensive leisure, recreational and educational facilities are available within Basingstoke itself. Basingstoke also provides access to junction 6 of the M3 and has a mainline railway station to London Waterloo, and junctions 11 and 12 of the M4 are easily accessible, as are Newbury, Reading and Winchester.

The property

Dating from the 18th Century, The Rose is a notable property and was formerly the village pub. It has been in the same ownership for many years and was extended by the current owners in the early 1980s. It is now a very comfortable family home of considerable character and has a lovely south-facing private garden with backs onto a paddock.

On the ground floor, the front door opens to the reception hall. The dual aspect sitting room has a high ceiling and a fireplace with a log-burning stove and a glazed door opening to the garden. The dining room has a deep bay-window overlooking the garden and a glazed door to the terrace and the snug has a glass door opening to the terrace (this was previously the family dining room and has a hatch to the kitchen). The kitchen is located at the back of the property overlooking the garden and has an adjoining utility room. There is also a cloakroom and a small cellar.

On the first floor, the main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, the second bedroom has an adjoining dressing room and there are two further bedrooms and the family bathroom.

For further details, please refer to the floorplan.

Outside

Overall, the plot extends to about ½ acre. To the front, there is a gravelled parking area and at the bottom of the garden there is a gated yard with provides additional parking and space for a garage as there is already a shed and a stable.

The garden is a delight, very private and with a southerly aspect over a paddock to the rear (for which an annual grazing licence may be available). There is a sheltered paved terrace adjacent to the house whilst the remainer is largely laid to lawn with a number of mature trees and some shrub and flower beds and a further shed.
