Hook Lane, Hook Village, Warsash

Situated in a conservation area within the beautiful hamlet of Hook an attractive cottage dating back to the late 1800’s set within private and tranquil gardens and benefitting from ample parking and garaging; the property has been owned by my clients for thirty five years and during their time of ownership they have fastidiously maintained the property throughout providing 1598 sq ft of accommodation.

The cottage is approached via a sweeping tarmac drive and is flanked on all sides by mature privet and yew hedges leading to an area of parking and the garaging. A brick pathway leads to the front door and on entering the wealth of period features are immediately apparent with exposed ceiling beams running through the old part of the cottage. The Sitting Room is dual aspect and centres on a woodburning stove with a flagstone hearth; a doorway leads into a good-sized Study nestled in the corner of the house. Leading off the Sitting Room to the rear of the cottage is a wonderful Sun Room fitted with Karndean flooring wrapping round the side of the house providing a generous area in which to relax overlooking the garden. The Dining Room and the Kitchen both have beautiful flagstone flooring and the Kitchen has ample cream cupboards, a breakfast bar for informal dining and a superb racing green Heritage Duette range for cooking, heating and hot water. There is also a Utility Room with space for additional appliances, a Pantry cupboard and a Cloakroom. Upstairs are four bedrooms, three of which are doubles, and bedroom 1 has a wonderful vaulted ceiling and benefitting for a bank of fitted wardrobe cupboards. The bedrooms are complimented by two well appointed bathroom suites. A particular selling feature of this home is the lovely cottage garden which has mature shrub borders with some fruit trees and an area of lawn, part of which has been planted with a pretty flower meadow. There is a large pond filled with acquatic plants and a stunning running rill sets a wonderful scene for relaxing on the deck terrace nearby. To the rear of the cottage is a brick terrace area with three raised vegetable beds and a wooden gardeners shed provides good storage. There is also a bespoke log cabin garage with workshop space at one end.

Hook Village is nestled in a semi-rural location equidistant between the historic village of Titchfield and the maritime village of Warsash and is within easy walking distance to Chilling Beach down a quiet country lane. Sports facilities can be found nearby at Abshot Country Club offering a gym, fitness classes and a swimming pool. Locks Heath Shopping Centre and Waitrose are also just down the road.
