Full description

Coast & Country by Henry Adams are delighted to bring ‘Foxley Wood’ to the market. This charming family home is situated in the exclusive private estate of Leydene Park near the highly desirable village of East Meon. The property was built within the grounds of the original H.M.S Mercury by Berkeley Homes in 1997 with attractive brick, tiled and flint elevations and has been finished to an exceptionally high standard, with a ‘Clive Christian’ kitchen, bespoke bedroom furniture and wardrobes as well as decorative lighting by Vaughan Designs.

Upon entering Foxley Wood you’re greeted by a warm and welcoming feel and the accommodation flows exceptionally well, benefitting from plenty of natural light throughout. Boasting over 3250 sqft of internal accommodation, Foxley Wood is a spacious and comfortable family home. The ground floor comprises a large and inviting entrance hall; triple aspect drawing room with fireplace; large dining room/study; cosy snug; well-appointed ‘Clive Christian’ kitchen/breakfast room; separate utility and two cloakrooms. Climbing the stairs to the first floor you’ll find: main bedroom with a beautiful en-suite and custom wardrobes; two double guest bedrooms both en-suite; two further double bedrooms with built in wardrobes and a large family bathroom suite.

Externally the house is approached via block paved driveway which provides ample parking for several vehicles and leads to the detached double width, double length garage offering sufficient space for at least four vehicles and garden machinery. The gardens and grounds extend to just over one acre with a beautiful large lawn area, mature trees, a wealth of herbaceous shrubs, flowers beds and hedging. The charming paved terrace wraps around the house and makes an ideal spot for soaking up the sun and al fresco dining with family and friends alike. There is also a vegetable garden and garden sheds adjacent to a secondary access to the plot, a Nordic BBQ-hut and summer house/studio space.

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.

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.
