A period cottage in an “idyllic position” with an “exceptional blend” of character and comfort has gone on the market.
The two-bedroom property is part of a terrace of five cottages, known as The Terrace, in Easton, a village within the South Downs National Park.
The terrace, which is said to capture the “essence of this quintessential Hampshire village,” was built in 1860 and was extended in 1984.

The cottage is said to have undergone extensive refurbishment in recent years to combine “thoughtful modern improvements with a respect for the building’s period heritage.”
It is now on the market for offers over £600,000 with freelance estate agent Nony Kerr-Smiley.
The estate agent said: “Set in an idyllic position in the highly sought-after village of Easton, within the breathtaking surroundings of the South Downs National Park, this beautifully refurbished two-bedroom period cottage offers an exceptional blend of timeless character and contemporary comfort.
“Forming part of a charming terrace of just five cottages known locally as The Terrace, the property occupies a particularly special position at the heart of village life.
“With its mellow brick elevations, open lawn frontage and classic proportions, The Terrace is an enduring and much-admired feature of Easton’s historic streetscape, perfectly capturing the essence of this quintessential Hampshire village.”
The property is accessed via a gravel path across the open lawn.
A double-door weather porch shelters the entrance, where a stable door opens into the kitchen.
This has pale polished stone flooring, bespoke solid wood cabinetry, a breakfast bar, integrated appliances, a spacious larder cupboard and a range cooker.

The second bedroom has an attractive fireplace and a built-in cupboard, with views across the front garden towards the neighbouring cottages.
