Osborne's House South is an historic Hampshire village property built in 1706 by the publican of the Anchor Hotel for his daughter, who was scheduled to marry a Mr Osborne. The property subsequently stayed in the Osborne family for over 100 years.
In 1821 the house was extended, and in 1981 it was split into two. The accommodation is well proportioned; the impressive entrance hall provides access to the formal drawing room with its open fireplace from which open to the terrace outside. The lower ground floor has a useful cellar area and on the first floor the main bedroom enjoys good views out over the garden; the fourth bedroom is currently converted to provide a dressing room for the master bedroom suite.
