Thatch Cottage, Eversley

Believed to date back to circa 1650, the property was sensitively extended in the 1930s and again in the late 1990s, resulting in a home that is both characterful and versatile.

The central hallway, complete with ample storage and a cloakroom, leads to a spacious dining room with French doors opening onto the garden and a staircase to the first floor. Adjacent is a guest bedroom with an en suite, currently used as a home office.

The opposite wing boasts a Smallbone, hand-painted, Shaker-style kitchen with solid oak and granite worktops, an Aga, and double oven, flowing seamlessly into a cosy snug and a charming living room with a log burner. Two staircases provide access to the first floor: one leads to a double bedroom and a period-style bathroom with a roll-top bath and separate shower, while the second staircase opens to an impressive master suite with fitted wardrobes and a roll-top bath en suite, alongside a further guest bedroom with its own en suite.

Externally, the property is equally impressive. Electric gates open onto a gravel drive leading to a double-width garage, while the gardens, dotted with mature trees, provide delightful views and privacy. Hard-wired boundary and feature tree lighting enhances the grounds, and two quaint outbuildings offer additional storage. A spacious patio off the dining room creates the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a quintessential country cottage that effortlessly blends history, space, and charm.
