Description
A characterful detached family house standing in a glorious village location with five bedrooms and a stunning orangery.
Amery House was built in 2000 and is beautifully set between the village, countryside and church. The house has played host to a growing family allowing ample space and flexibility for everyday living whilstenabling quiet study and reflection all within a tranquil village location. The house forms part of a private drive of just three properties with well-proportioned rooms and a flexible layout together with traditional elevations of brick, stone and flint beneath a slate roof.
The generous accommodation includes a kitchen/ dining room opening into a superb orangery with a wood burning stove. This is a magnificent room extending to about 26’1/7.95m with two sets of double doors opening out to the terrace and garden. The bespoke kitchen (with an adjoining utility room) is fitted with a range of cabinets and pan drawers and is set around an island together with an oven, microwave, dishwasher, 5-ring gas hob with an extractor fan above and granite work surfaces. The flexible and generous living accommodation also includes an elegant twin aspect sitting room with a central fireplace and double doors opening to the orangery.
The further accommodation could be arranged to suit a variety of requirements (including the provision of an annexe if required) and includes a ground floor wing with the principal bedroom suite (including a dressing room and en-suite bathroom) together with two further bedrooms and shower room. The two further bedrooms and shower room are set to the first floor.
The house was designed to take full advantage of the exceptional village setting and adjoining countryside. A viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the overall benefits of the property.
Outside
The house stands within attractive landscaped grounds providing a wonderful setting with areas of lawn together with established borders, vegetable garden and a variety of specimen trees. A broad paved terrace is set to the south and east of the house (and adjoins the orangery) and provides an ideal outside seating and entertaining area.
A private drive is approached via a shared access track and a pair of gates. The driveway provides ample parking and access to the integral double garage (with electric doors and enclosed loft space). Of note, there is a potting shed set within the grounds.
Situation
The house enjoys long views over the adjoining farmland whilst standing within a few hundred metres of the Church and about a third of a mile or so of the centre of the village. Holybourne has a very strong and active community with Andrews Endowed Primary School (four to eleven), Eggars Secondary School, ‘White Hart’ public house, shop/Post Office, theatre, village hall (with a pre school), church and a number of clubs and associations. A walk along the lane leads to the church, pond and open countryside. Holybourne is adjacent to Alton and also adjoins fine open Hampshire countryside. Alton provides a range of individual shops together with weekly and specialist markets, Waitrose and M&S Simply Food, sports centre, schooling for all age groups and station to London Waterloo.
