Peagreen Lodge, Drove Road, Stockbridge, SO20 6AB

A detached, highly energy-efficient house, offering excellent accommodation in the desirable Test Valley village of Chilbolton.

The Property: Behind the façade of this classical Georgian-style village house, there stands a beautifully appointed, fully functioning modern family home.

Built in 1998 by the current owners to an exacting standard, and carefully-maintained since, Peagreen Lodge offers nearly 2,900sq ft of accommodation across two floors.

A spacious hallway provides an impressive welcome, with enviable ceiling height. With attractive views of the garden from many of the four reception rooms, natural light pours in throughout the house.

The hallway offers a central point from which all ground-floor rooms are accessed.

To the left is a study, equally well suited as a playroom or snug, alongside is a beautifully relaxing, air-conditioned, sitting room featuring a focal fireplace and doors opening directly onto the garden.

The formal dining room flows seamlessly into a charming garden room; the perfect place to enjoy the outdoors whatever the weather.

To the right of the property lies the spacious kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a good range of wall and base units, ample space for a dining table, and direct access to the garden and terrace.

This area is complemented by a separate utility room with further access to the rear garden, a home office, downstairs loo and cloakroom and there is ample storage across the ground floor.

Stairs lead from the entrance hall to the first floor landing, a versatile and inviting space in its own right (with scope to create a fifth bedroom if required).

In total, the accommodation comprises four double bedrooms, all with air-conditioning.

The principal bedroom is a serene retreat, complete with a dressing area, ensuite bathroom, and lovely garden views.

The main guest bedroom also benefits from an ensuite, while two further bedrooms share a well-appointed family bathroom. An attic runs the full length of the house with ladder access.

Outside: Peagreen Lodge is approached by a generous driveway providing ample off-street parking, complemented by a double garage with space for a workshop area and a number of built-in cupboards.

This is a naturally cool area and works well for wine and food storage.

To the rear, the garden is a standout feature: A private, south-west facing haven designed for both relaxation and low-maintenance enjoyment.

Predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by established hedging, it enjoys a high degree of seclusion, with carefully chosen trees and shrubs adding structure and interest.

Patio doors from all three rear-facing rooms open directly onto the garden.

A spacious terrace creates the perfect spot for outdoor dining and making this an ideal garden to enjoy from afternoon sun through to evening.

The striking large water feature and pergola provide attractive focal points.
