Full description

Privately tucked away on arguably Hill Brow’s most sought-after private lane, Coast & Country by Henry Adams are proud to present Beacon House, a beautiful and charming family home dating back to the late-Victorian era with later Edwardian additions. This fantastic home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period property which has been sympathetically refurbished to a very high standard, set in mature grounds with South-facing Garden.

There is a warm and welcoming feel upon stepping through the front door. The accommodation is incredibly spacious and boasts a wealth of character throughout. The ground floor comprises: a large and inviting entrance hall, impressive drawing room with inglenook fireplace and log-burner and with patio doors opening onto the garden, open-plan kitchen and dining room that spans the depth of the house, walk-in pantry, utility room, study and a magnificent wood-panelled music room. Climbing the custom-made oak staircase, you get a sense of the grandeur of this Victorian residence with its high ceilings, stained-glass windows and galleried landing.

There are three well-proportioned double bedrooms on the first floor, two that benefit from well-appointed en-suite bath and shower rooms and the third accessing the family bathroom. Rising again to the second floor, there is another bedroom with en-suite, family bathroom, further study and a lovely bedroom/playroom encompassing the upper part of the turret. Amongst the classic Victorian architecture of Beacon House is the attractive turret on one side which provides a charming feature of the drawing room and the two bedrooms above. Positioned centrally in its plot, Beacon House offers a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Within its established gardens, there are a variety of fruit trees and bushes and a large Victorian greenhouse with grape vines and citrus fruits. The swimming pool - with lockable safety cover - is heated and offers a private, secluded space to cool off in hot summer days. Towards the foot of the gardens there is a tennis court which would benefit from some remedial work. As well as a comfortable and spacious family home, Beacon House with its elegant reception rooms and established gardens provides a fabulous entertaining space for both formal and casual gatherings.

To summarise, Beacon House is a wonderful family home located in a popular residential lane and privately screened from view. The property provides the perfect setting for family life with ample living space and outbuildings. Enjoying a privileged location, the property provides easy access to local amenities in Petersfield, Liss or Liphook, an excellent choice of schools, and transport links, ensuring a lifestyle of comfort and convenience.

Petersfield often features on lists of the best places to live and work and was recently voted one of the top 10 most desirable market towns in England; The Guardian went so far as to describe Petersfield as ‘a commuter’s Nirvana, the urban equivalent of a foot rub and a G&T’.

We have a delightful choice of properties in the area, from beautiful character cottages, some dating back 500 years, to coach house style homes and large rural retreats to modern family homes. There’s also a thriving rental market here as the convenient location, attractive setting and abundant facilities make this an excellent base for those working in the wider area or simply wanting a perfect place to raise a family.

One of the major attractions for families is the choice of world-class schools – The Petersfield School is rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted and Bohunt School at nearby Liphook is one of the top performing state schools in the country. In the private sector, Churcher’s College and Bedales are located in the town, while Ditcham Park School is just to the southeast.

We have cosmopolitan range of shops, restaurants and cafés, with most major retailers represented. The Petersfield Market is held twice a week in The Square and a Hampshire Farmer’s Market is held on the first Sunday of every month. We also have many sports facilities, including two golf clubs, the Taro Leisure Centre and the Petersfield Open Air Swimming Pool, which, despite being open to the elements, is always heated to an average of 27 degrees.

But what really sets Petersfield apart is the beautiful countryside and its pretty villages. These include Selborne with its post office, primary school and choice of two pubs, Steep Village, which sits on wooded slopes known as The Hangers and was once home to Sir Alec Guinness, Buriton Village, which sits between Petersfield and the Queen Elizabeth Country Park and Rogate and Rake to the east within in the Rother Valley.
