Key features
Full description
This iconic and characterful Grade II listed cottage designed by Philip Webb is located on the rural fringes of Liphook.
The Clockhouse has been lovingly renovated whilst still keeping its attractive and original features - latched, leaded casement windows, decorative working fireplace, quarry tiles and the jewel in the crown being the turret clock and belfry with a 1905 Gillet & Johnston clock - the heartbeat of the house. The clock weight takes a week to descend through the stairwell to the ground floor and the belfry affords magnificent 360 degree far reaching views - one of the highest points in the area.
The two gardens are a delight. A herringbone brick path leads to the front door past a 'secret' wild flower garden. Fronting Chiltley Lane, a level area of lawn is bordered by flowerbeds. In all, a most charming and beautifully presented property located just 1/3 mile from the station and Liphook village yet with a delightful rural feel.
N.B. The Clockhouse has a single garage, 2 designated parking spaces (not on the title) and a small area of flying freehold.
