High Street, Wherwell, Andover, Hampshire, Sp11

A pretty and charming semi detached period cottage with a large garden situated in the heart of this beautiful village renowned for its many beautiful thatched cottages and in the heart of the Test Valley

A semi detached Grade II listed cottage providing well presented accommodation and featuring a large south easterly facing rear garden. There may be potential to extend the rear of the property subject to planning and all required consents. Wherwell is a beautiful village with outstanding walks in the surrounding countryside, to the River Test and near villages where there are well regarded pubs. It is also strongly rumoured that The White Hart public house in Wherwell is to be completely overhauled and re-opened in the near future which will be a great enhancement to the village.

The property is situated in the heart of the village of Wherwell, renowned for its many period properties and which also has a church, village hall, playing fields and primary school. There are charming country walks nearby including one along an unspoilt lane to the fine old Victorian church, and another across a long footbridge to The Common and neighbouring village of Chilbolton. The nearby town of Andover offers a comprehensive range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities, as well as a mainline railway station providing fast services to London (Waterloo) in a little over an hour. The A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London and the West Country, and the cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury are approximately 20 minutes and 30 minutes distant respectively.
