Description

A delightful edge of village family house within superb countryside.<br/><br/>Ground Floor<br/>Entrance hall, Kitchen / breakfast room with walk-in larder, Study, Sitting room / playroom, Dining room, Drawing room, Conservatory, Cloakroom<br/><br/>First Floor<br/>Main bedroom with dressing room and bathroom en suite, 4 further double bedrooms, Family bathroom<br/><br/>Outside<br/>Double garage, Parking, Garden<br/><br/>The Property<br/>Garston Farm is situated on the south western edge of the popular village of East Meon. As such it has access to a delightful rural vista both over open countryside to its south and the immediate environs where Yew Down and Park Hill fold into adjacent arable land. Perfect for an enthusiastic dog owner, walker, or runner! <br/><br/>A detached house with Victorian origins, the house has been extended over the years to create a sizeable family house with a comfortable array of reception rooms downstairs and good sized double bedrooms on the first floor. <br/><br/>The kitchen / breakfast room is well equipped with an oil-fired Aga and is double aspect with views over the garden to the north and east. It links well with the adjacent study and sitting room / playroom. The study has a woodburning stove and a second stair to the first floor. The other end of the house is more formal, with conservatory, entrance hall, dining room and drawing room. The second staircase rises within the dining room. Whilst the first floor is served by two staircases, one would suffice given the way the upstairs has been linked via a single corridor. The bedrooms on the southern flank have particularly good views and enjoy the ample proportions of the family bathroom.<br/><br/>Gardens and Grounds<br/>The garden has been carefully planted and maintained with richly stocked borders and decorative topiary. There is a sheltered south facing vegetable garden. Whilst the gardens are mainly laid to lawn, the village green is a short walk away if further space is required with a playground and hard tennis court. The driveway has twin 5 bar gates and is gravelled. There is a large double garage with a double bunded oil tank which is easily accessible and discreet. The front of the house runs along a quiet village lane with a low flint wall and a pedestrian access to the east as well as the vehicular access to the west of the property.<br/><br/>The Location<br/>The village of East Meon offers a thriving community with two public houses, a local store, a school, an ancient church, and an active village hall. There are football and cricket pitches in the village. There are many footpaths and bridleways in the area for walking and riding. There are many good schools in the area including East Meon primary school, Churcher’s College and Bedales.<br/><br/>The town of Petersfield is close by and provides for most everyday needs, whilst Guildford, Chichester, and Winchester are within easy reach and have more extensive shopping and leisure facilities. The A3 provides fast access to London, the motorway network, Gatwick, Heathrow and Southampton airports, whilst the mainline station at Petersfield provides a fast service to London Waterloo.<br/><br/>The wider surrounding area has much to offer with polo at Cowdray Park, racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, golf at Cowdray Park, Goodwood, Pulborough and Liphook, motor racing at the Goodwood circuit and sailing out of Chichester Harbour and other centres along the South Coast.<br/><br/>Distances<br/>By Road: London 60 miles, Winchester 15 miles, Petersfield 5 miles<br/><br/>By Rail: Petersfield to London to Waterloo from 63 minutes
