A charming and historic thatched cottage in Ampfield is up for sale with a guide price of £1.25 million.
The Grade II listed home named Broomhill is tucked away on Pound Lane, amidst the serene rural scenery of the Test Valley.
The estate agents handling the sale, Henshaw Fox, have described it as a “beautiful” home, full of character and situated quietly within a two and a quarter-acre plot.
The agents believe it to be an ideal home for those longing for a house imprinted with charm in a picturesque environment.
The cottage offers a welcoming sitting room, characterised by exposed beams and a striking fireplace that serves as a focal point of the room.
A mezzanine level provides handy storage while the doors leading to the gardens ensure plenty of natural light filters into the room.
The kitchen and breakfast room has been thoughtfully designed and equipped with a selection of eye and base-level units, integrated appliances – a drinks fridge and Bosch dishwasher – and provisions for an American style fridge/freezer and Rangemaster style oven.
A utility room also adds extra storage, as well as a butler sink, and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
Between the kitchen and the sitting room lies the dining room, offering plenty of space for a dining suite, making it perfect for both everyday use and entertainment.

The first floor is navigable by two staircases, one from the kitchen and the other from the dining room.
At the top, there are four bedrooms and the family bathroom.
Unique to the property is a crawl space that connects bedroom two to bedroom three.
The piece de resistance, however, is the extensive outside space.
The well-maintained gardens encircling the house offer a serene retreat and have great views of the Test Valley countryside.
A large terrace is also included at Broomhill, providing superb space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing while enjoying the far-reaching views.
A heated swimming pool with a retractable cover and surrounding terrace makes it easy to enjoy the outdoors during the warmer months.
Beyond the gardens, a further area of land, extending to approximately 0.85 acres, is divided between outbuildings and a fenced enclosure potentially suitable for animals.
This space is likely to appeal to those interested in equestrian or smallholding activities.
An assorted range of outbuildings add approximately 1,203 sq ft of additional space to the property.
These consist of a large detached garage, garden shed, studio/home office with an adjoining large store room, a garden room currently used as a bar and entertainment area, and towards the end of the garden, a workshop and a further garden shed provide handy storage and workspace.
