The gardens are very well established and include two wells to the front of the house; to the rear is a patio area with a pretty pond. The lawned garden has a selection of fruit trees and the fruit cage has been prolific. An acre of woodland has been planted with snowdrops, bluebells, cowslips and many wild flowers. There is also a section of open pasture towards the top of the land.
The property comes with a former stable used for storage, two sheds and a greenhouse.
Situated on the south east outskirts of Bighton near Alresford in Hampshire, the property is surrounded by unspoiled countryside. Bighton itself has a village hall, church and pub while Alresford has a wider range of facilities. Alton, Basingstoke and Winchester are all also within easy reach.
