‘Little Meadow’ Hambledon Road, Denmead, Hampshire

Set back from the road this impressive, individually designed family home offers the best of both

worlds, with open fields and woodland to the rear and the South Downs National Park to the front. It is set within semi-rural surroundings yet just outside the village of Denmead in a position equidistant to the historic village of Hambledon, ‘the home of cricket’. ‘Little Meadow’ has been extended to create over 2,410 sq ft of living accommodation which is arranged over two floors and comprises; hallway, drawing room, sitting / family room, kitchen / breakfast room, morning room, utility room, dining room, cloakroom and garage on the ground floor, with five bedrooms, a large family bathroom and shower room on the first floor. There are mature front and rear gardens with the plot extending approximately 0.43 of an acre backing onto open fields and woodland. Within Denmead there is an active community, with a junior school, Parish Council, dental practice and health centre, a variety of small shops

and public houses. To the north west is Hambledon, a small historic village, known as the ‘Cradle of Cricket’, where there is also a highly regarded primary school, a public house and two active shops. Early internal viewing of this impressive family home is strongly recommended in order to appreciate both

the accommodation and location on offer.
