Description
A small country estate comprising two period properties and a fisherman's cottage set in stunning grounds extending to approximately 21 acres. The property enjoys a beautiful setting on the edge of the popular village of Easton and benefits from fishing rights on the banks of the world-renowned chalk stream, the River Itchen.
A small country estate with river frontage comprising three properties set in wonderful grounds totalling approximately 21 acres.
The principal residence has a rich history and is believed to date from around the 1900’s with accommodation extending to just over 3,000 sq. ft. The property has been recently renovated and features the remains of a walled garden and log cabin.
Fulling Mill Cottage is a delightful, attached period cottage situated within a glorious rural setting. The cottage offers well balanced accommodation set across two floors and benefits from formal gardens to the rear and water meadows to the front.
Fisherman’s Cottage is believed to have links with Winston Churchill and offers the potential for a perfect guest house with a studio room and separate kitchen.

In all, the property extends to approximately 21 acres with the majority of the land and all the water courses designated as a site of special scientific interest.
