Property description

CHAIN-FREE SALE Seldom available, an opportunity to acquire a 1.2 acre (0.487 hectare) paddock with a long road frontage on the rural outskirts of this revered Hampshire village. A further small paddock may also be available *.

Description
The paddock is relatively level, has recently been re-fenced with post and wire and includes 3 gates - 2 galvanised metal farm gates and a brick piered gated driveway being situated just to the East of Field Cottage, one of an individual pair of post-war semi-detached houses. The frontage considerably exceeds 300' to Ashley Road, a metalled country lane connecting the village of Bentworth with Lower and Upper Wield. Enjoying a gently elevated location within the North Downs, the land enjoys farmland views across a dry valley towards South Lease Copse and Bradley Wood. There is a network of footpaths, bridleways and byways in the area. Lying within this tract of fine Hampshire countryside, the immediate neighbourhood has a small number of individual and character homes.

Location
Within a mile of the land, the highly esteemed village of Bentworth has a history dating back towards the Domesday Book having been part of the Royal estate of Odiham and includes Medieval buildings such as St Mary's Church and Hall Farm House. The more recent claim to fame is commemorated by an Olympic Gold postbox. The paddock lies to the North West of the village. The central village area is occupied by the church, primary school and village hall. The village lists the Sun and Star inns, a delightful small village green, private cricket pitch and local societies including a gardeners club among its attributes. London is accessible via the M3 junction 5 and rail connections to Waterloo are available from Basingstoke and Alton, the latter being within 6 miles. Alton has High Street shops, M&S, Waitrose and Sainsbury's stores, education establishments including a college, a sports centre and library.
