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.

Why live in Petersfield?
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.
