Stoner Hill, Steep, Petersfield, Hampshire, GU32

A substantial detached family house with a tennis court in the popular village of Steep.

The property is an extended lodge house in the popular village of Steep with brick and part tile-hung elevations under a tiled roof, accommodation over three floors and believed to originally date from about 1850. The deceptively spacious layout can be seen in the floorplan but of particular note is the wonderful reception space which seems to never end! Outside, the house is approached by a tarmac drive leading to a parking area. The gardens, mainly on the east and south sides of the house, are predominantly laid to lawn with a variety of mature borders, shrubs, trees and hedging. The garden is enclosed; perfect for containing dogs (or children!). Situated towards the south-east corner of the plot is a tennis court. There is a detached studio or annexe, which would make an ideal home office or accommodation to house relatives for a lengthy period of time. In all, the house amounts to 4,160 sq. ft. of accommodation plus an additional 460 sq. ft. in the studio and lies in a plot of approximately 1.1 acres. An internal viewing is strongly recommended.

The property is situated in the village of Steep, in the heart of The South Downs National Park.
