Outside

The gardens are a very special feature of the property with several attractive vantage points and a backdrop of light woodland. Little Holt lends itself to al fresco entertaining really rather well.

To the eastern end there is a further area of lawn with borders and several mature trees. The house is approached via a driveway providing parking for several vehicles and leading up the detached oak framed barn with twin carport and workshop. From the terrace adjoining the dining/family room, steps rise to give access to the first floor annexe with shower room. Within the grounds there are a range of very useful garden stores and sheds as well as detached timber studio.

Situation

The property is set off a small no through lane and occupies a very attractive and slightly elevated rural location with views over rolling farmland. The small rural hamlet of Neatham is about half a mile from Holybourne and stands amidst fine countryside between the villages of Bentley, Froyle and Binsted. A footpath via Lower Neatham Mill Lane provides convenient access to the strong and active village of Holybourne. The village has a primary school (Andrews Endowed), infant school, 'The White Hart' public house, local shop and post office, village hall, church and a number of clubs and associations. The local area provides ample opportunity for many country pursuits together with a network of footpaths leading to the Wey Valley and the North Downs as well as the South Downs National Park.
