Village Street, Chilbolton, Stockbridge, So20

A beautiful Edwardian terrace house with extremely well appointed accommodation and long south facing garden situated in the old part of this sought after Test Valley village.

A Grade II Listed Edwardian mid terraced house. It is unusual for Edwardian houses to be listed but this set of Arts and Crafts style, former rural workers cottage is attributed to the architect W. D. Caroe. The characterful and beautifully presented accommodation includes entrance porch, sitting room with fireplace and log burning stove, separate dining room also with fireplace and log burner, well fitted galley kitchen and separate utility. On the first floor a principal double bedroom with cast iron Victorian fireplace as well as a luxury shower room. On the second floor there is a second large double bedroom. The property is set back from the lane with an enclosed front garden. The main garden is also well enclosed and has the great benefit of a southerly aspect.

The property is situated in the sought after village of Chilbolton which has a Post Office/store, church, village hall and public house. A second public house The Mayfly sits on the banks of the River Test. There are many excellent walks to West down and Chilbolton Common – a Designated Area of Special Scientific Interest and a renowned local beauty spot. There is a reputable primary school in the neighbouring village of Wherwell, approximately 1½ miles away, and the picturesque town of Stockbridge, some four miles distant. Andover, also four miles away, offers a comprehensive range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities, as well as a mainline railway station providing fast services to Waterloo. The cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury are about a 15 and 25 minute drive away respectively, and the A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London and the West Country.
