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.

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.
