Meon Road, Titchfield, PO14 4HJ

Situated in a semi rural location amongst glorious grounds approaching half an acre, a picturesque Grade II listed thatched cottage occupied by my client since 1979.

This much loved cottage exudes character from the moment you enter with extensive beams and exposed timbers.

There are two reception rooms; the Sitting Room centres on an inglenook fireplace with electric log burning stove with French doors leading to the beautiful rear garden.

The Dining Room is open to the Kitchen and has an open tread staircase leading to the first floor.

The Kitchen is fitted with ample cupboards with some integral appliances and a built in breakfast table. The Utility Room is off this with a further door to the outside.

Upstairs are three Bedrooms, all with part vaulted ceilings and wardrobe cupboards. Bedroom 1 also has a delightful window seat overlooking the glorious gardens.

There is also a Family Bathroom to compliment the three bedrooms.

Externally, the cottage benefits from glorious and beautiful gardens of excellent size, extending to approximately half an acre with a stunning pond, mature trees including a magnificent willow tree, well stocked beds and delightful seating areas.

There is a summer house, tucked away and an orchard to the far boundary.

The cottage is set back from the road with areas of lawn the front and a carriage driveway providing excellent parking for several cars.

The garden is truly special and must be viewed to appreciate it on all its glory.

The situation of the property is stunning, being situated in a semi-rural location, well positioned for commuters and being within easy reach of the A/M27 road networks and Fareham Train Station with trains to London in 1hr 40 or 1hr 11 from Southampton Airport Parkway and only 75 minutes from the top of the A3.
