Haydown Farm, Nether Wallop, Hampshire, SO20 - £1.35 million (Carter Jonas)
Haydown Farm is a very appealing period property with origins dating back to the early 16th century with later additions, and the benefit of a range of barns and grounds extending to circa 3 acres.
The sitting room is double aspect with open fireplace with stone surround and French doors onto the rear courtyard. Adjoining the ground floor of the house is a further wing, a former barn which is now divided into a store room, workshop and garden room. This area in particular offers great potential to convert into further living space, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
The grounds are a particular feature of the property, extending in total to about 3 acres. The formal gardens immediately adjacent to the main house are a delightful mix of lawned areas, borders and beds and mature trees.
Haydown Farm occupies a delightful semi-rural position in this highly desirable Test Valley village. It is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village itself has a primary school and a church, whilst a pub, village shop and post office can be found in the neighbouring village of Over Wallop.
