4 Bed Detached House For Sale

A spacious four-bedroom semi-detached village house enjoying beautiful rural views and a west-facing rear garden.



The property is far larger than first anticipated. Formerly a farm worker’s cottage, it retains a wealth of character and has been extensively renovated and extended over the years to provide well-balanced and generously proportioned accommodation with a modern layout—ideal for family living and entertaining. The front door opens into a welcoming reception hall with doors to the principal rooms and a ground floor WC. The impressive, double-aspect sitting room features a central fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove. French doors open directly out to a paved patio, offering wonderful views over the garden and the far-reaching countryside beyond. The spacious kitchen/dining room is set to the heart of the house, extended in recent years and flooded with natural light thanks to three large, electrically operated Velux windows and bi-fold doors opening out to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of traditional cabinets, granite work surfaces and complemented by integrated appliances. In addition, there is a separate utility room with space for further appliances. To complete the ground floor accommodation, there is a further reception room currently used as a play room/snug, which could equally serve as a formal dining room.



The first floor is of equal merit, offering four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room, while the remaining three bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom with a separate shower.

In addition to the main house, there is a useful store area above the garage with stunning countryside views. This space has been used as an occasional home office or studio space

Outside

To the front, the property is approached via two five-bar gates leading to a large gravel driveway, offering ample parking for several vehicles. The frontage is fully enclosed by mature yew hedging, providing privacy and charm. Gated access leads to the side of the property, where there is an additional single garage with power and lighting.



The rear garden offers a peaceful haven, backing directly onto open countryside with stunning far-reaching views. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by a small pond and a large paved patio providing an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. A rear door gives access to the double garage, with stairs leading to the store area above.

Situation

The property enjoys a tranquil setting in the popular village of Bentworth, surrounded by picturesque countryside, just five miles from the historic market town of Alton. Bentworth offers a welcoming community with a traditional village pub, The Sun, and St Mary’s Church of England Primary School. Nearby Alton provides a wide range of shops, including M&S and Waitrose, along with everyday amenities, restaurants, pubs, cafés, and several large supermarkets.
