Mirroring its rural surroundings and nature views, this cottage brings the outside in with an earthy colour pallet, floral motifs and natural materials. Set within an 80-acre estate with a vineyard this charming converted oak barn is perfect for a quiet couple’s getaway with two beloved canine companions. Explore the ancient woodlands and sleepy villages of the South Downs National Park, spend a day by the coast or visit the surrounding cities like Winchester. Enjoy cosy evenings by the wood burner, relaxing in the garden or slipping into the freestanding bath you’ll find up the spiral staircase.
Enter the property to find an airy open-plan living space with tones of pink, green and orange throughout. Next to the spiral staircase is a white, compact ‘L’-shaped kitchen with a wine cooler. Beyond are two chairs and a dining table beneath a low-hanging light and a lounge area. Opposite the wood burner and patio doors, you’ll find a green velvet sofa and two beanbags. Climb the spiral staircase to reach a romantic pink and green bedroom with a freestanding bath opposite the king-size bed. Also on this level is a balcony and an en-suite with a rainfall shower. Outside is a private patio which expands onto a shared garden area. There is also private off-road parking.
Begin your time away by exploring the 80-acre estate where you can walk the hounds through woodland, vineyard and farmland with a lake and resident peacocks. You’ll be close to a handful of charming market towns like Alton (2.5 miles) and Selborne (4.5 miles) – where you can visit Gilbert White’s House and National Trust Selborne Common. Head to the south coast to see Portsmouth (30 miles) or stay inland with a trip to the historic city of Winchester (20.5 miles).
