Property description

Meriden Cottage is nestled into the hillside in the popular village of Ewshot, Hampshire. Individually designed with breathtaking views across Surrey and Hampshire this substantial country home would appeal to those needing to be close to day to day needs such as good road and rail connections and excellent schools, but want the feeling of a private countryside location.

There are many stunning features to this property - the reception hall is one of them and very central to the house with turned staircases leading to the first and lower ground floors. The drawing room is arranged on two levels with a large inglenook fireplace for those cosy winter evenings. There is a second reception room currently used as a music room with a small study/workroom tucked away. Both of these rooms have views of the fields and countryside beyond and doors giving access to the terrace and rear garden.

For those wishing to entertain, the dining room would make the perfect setting and could accommodate substantial dining furniture to meet these needs – an attractive bay window with the same views would complete the perfect lunch party vista!

The kitchen is attractively fitted with high spec cabinets and granite worktops. This is a perfect entertaining/family/casual living space and with an extensive range of Miele appliances with gas and induction hobs, double oven, in-built steamer, plate warmer, Fisher and Paykel duplex dishwasher, American style fridge/freezer to name just a few–a dream come true for the most discerning of cooks. Off the kitchen is a snug eating area, a pantry and utility room plus doors accessing front and rear gardens.

Also on the ground floor is bedroom 6/home office with built-in shelving. Adjacent to this is a downstairs cloakroom.

Stairs from the reception hall lead down to the lower ground floor, with study area, sauna and separate wine cellar. The superb home leisure area is accessed from here. A luxurious heated swimming pool can be found as well a shower and an area for gym equipment – all within a climate control system plus the option to open double doors to the garden – ideal for those warmer summer days.

On the first floor there is a master bedroom with ensuite bathroom. A guest suite with bathroom, three further double bedrooms plus two additional bathrooms would meet the needs for those wishing for guest accommodation with a good degree of privacy.

Flooring in the property is a mixture of solid oak, carpet, Amtico and ceramic tiling.

Accessed through a secure double gateway with separate pedestrian gate, the entrance is imposing and attractive. There are various areas of lawn, plenty of space for play equipment and more formal parts such as the paved terrace with stone balustrade adjoining the rear of the house. There is a double garage, parking for a number of vehicles, a single garage, outside cloakroom and large shed with power and light. The grounds are of approximately one acre.

Meriden Cottage is extremely appealing and manages to feel grand as well as charming. With its significant proportions and fine views Meriden Cottage is also in an excellent location. Close to Farnham, Fleet and Hook it is well placed for the mainline stations of these towns and within easy access of the M3.
