Every so often a house comes on to the market that ticks all the boxes and Honeysuckle Cottage certainly does that. Spacious and flexible accommodation, light fitted kitchen with Aga and breakfast / dining area, 5 bedrooms, large enclosed front garden and peacefully set in the highly sought after village of West Meon, it offers it all.
Originally one of three farm cottages believed to date from 1810, it was extended in 1872 to a family home and has been further extended and upgraded by the present owners to the lovely family home it now is.
A pretty entrance porch leads to the hall with wooden floor. The kitchen is lovely and light with windows to the side and front garden, fitted units, butlers sink, oil fired Aga, tiled floor, and a good sized breakfast / dining area. The kitchen leads through to an internal conservatory style family room with tiled floor and French doors to the garden. Cleverly designed by the present owners this room joins the study, utility and store rooms to the rest of the cottage giving flexible family accommodation. The utility room is fitted with sink and units and has the boiler in it plus good ceiling height making a perfect utility room. The study has a good working area and bay window giving plenty of light. There is also a good sized store room.
The sitting room is another large light room; double aspect with an attractive working fireplace. The recently finished modern downstairs shower room is an ideal addition for a family home.
Stairs lead to the four upstairs bedrooms which are all beautifully finished with plenty of cupboard space and good ceiling height. The family bathroom is tastefully designed with marble sink unit, wooden floor, heated towel rail and oak units.
A second staircase leads to a lovely spacious attic conversion giving a large twin room with double aspect windows, fitted storage space and plenty of ceiling height. A separate well designed bathroom on this floor gives the flexibility to use this as a separate area for guests, au pair or office accommodation.
Outside the garden has been thoughtfully laid out for family use with mature beds, paths, a lovely large lawn, play area, established borders, a wide block paved drive with five bar gate and ample parking for at least four cars. There is also a sitting area to the side of the cottage facing the pretty brick and flint decorative end wall.
Another positive feature of this property is its position. Peacefully set near the centre of the highly sought after village of West Meon the cottage is perfectly placed for all the facilities the village has to offer, plus easy access to the A32 and A272 for commuting.
West Meon enjoys a thriving lively community with a renowned village school, highly regarded butcher, community run village shop with post office, a historic church and popular pub. Sporting facilities include an extensive recreation ground and sports clubs. West Meon is surrounded by beautiful countryside and rolling hills that can be seen from the property.
With good family homes in the popular Meon Valley rarely coming onto the market, early viewing is highly recommended.
