Set within the idyllic and tightly knit village of Chilcomb, this beautifully maintained four or five bedroom family residence offers the perfect blend of rural tranquillity and elegant living. Situated a short drive east of Winchester, this charming hamlet - characterised by its lack of through traffic and warm, respectful community - provides a peaceful retreat amidst the rolling hills of the South Downs National Park. Chilcomb enjoys a coveted position along the renowned South Downs Way, a favourite among walkers and nature lovers. Despite its rural setting, the village remains highly accessible, with excellent transport links via the A31 and nearby M3 motorway. Southampton lies just 12 miles away, and the area is well-regarded for its proximity to some of the country's top-performing schools. Approached via a private gravel ‘in and out’ driveway, Chilcomb Manor is an impressive family home surrounded by wrap-around gardens and enjoying panoramic views over its own front paddock and the sweeping South Downs beyond. The spacious entrance porch opens into a grand hallway, setting the tone for the refined interior. Generously proportioned, light-filled reception rooms flow effortlessly throughout the ground floor, each benefiting from double-aspect views and creating a harmonious living space ideal for both family life and entertaining. Period features - including oak panelling, solid wood flooring, and a magnificent staircase - infuse the home with timeless charm, while tasteful modern updates bring comfort and convenience to everyday living. Upstairs, the first floor boasts four to five spacious bedrooms, most with dual-aspect windows framing stunning views of the landscaped gardens and surrounding countryside. Two of the bedrooms benefit from en-suite bathrooms, and a luxurious family bathroom serves the remaining rooms. Enhancements by the current owners include the addition of a spacious family room, a double garage with an upstairs chill-out space, and recent refurbishments to both the kitchen and bathrooms - ensuring the home is ready to meet the needs of modern family life. The gardens, which were professionally landscaped in 2019, have been lovingly nurtured and cherished - an evolving space that has provided both adventure and sanctuary. From children’s games on the lawn to quiet evenings by the pond, it offers something for every season of life. A wildflower meadow and a peaceful bench provide the perfect spot for sunset views and quiet reflection. Chilcomb’s close-knit community is brought to life through its annual church fête, regular services at the historic St Andrew’s Church, and a calendar of local events that foster a vibrant village spirit.
