Property description

Gascoigne-Pees: We are delighted to offer for sale this truly amazing Grade II listed property with important historical interest. This property forms part of the principal building of the old Eggars school, believed to be the oldest school in Hampshire and is the largest within its development.

The nearly 400 year old building and grounds have been beautifully converted by the highly regarded HA & DB Kitchin of Hamlet to provide a stunning small and select development of houses and luxury apartments. The entire development retains an immense wealth of character both internally and externally.

Set over three well planned floors, the house offers a stunning flow of versatile accommodation with a large amount of natural light throughout due to the large stone windows, with many rooms having more than one set.

The reception space comprises of a main lounge with a stunning original inglenook fireplace, with the original bread ovens either side still intact and a large luxury oak finished kitchen with adjoining dining area. The first floor offers two double bedrooms, both boasting en-suites and a beautifully large landing that would serve suitably as a study area. The second floor offers two further double bedrooms and a wonderful period bathroom and another wide galleried landing.

To the outside this property benefits form two good size private gardens, the larger of which is set to the side and enjoys a lovely secluded feel.

There is ample parking with a dedicated parking space as well as its own garage and additional parking in front.

A truly unique property with an amazing history that would easily suit a family or someone downsizing, the property is within a very short walk to the Alton mainline train station, town centre and local schools and parks.

We would highly recommend an internal viewing to appreciate the vast size and stunning features that this property offers.
