6 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Rockbourne, Fordingbridge, Hampshire, SP6

Outside
From Mintys Hill a gated entrance opens to a sweeping driveway that ascends the hill, following a route through the lower gardens to a wide expanse of parking and turning space to the front of the house. From here there is access to the DOUBLE GARAGE with twin sets of wooden doors, overhead storage, electricity connected and personal door to side. The driveway continues to the side of the house where there is a further parking area and a brick built, open fronted LOG STORE.

The lower section of garden is shaped by the contours of Mintys Hill and a historic chalk pit, from which the name of the house is derived. The garden is laid principally to lawn with several deep, mature shrub and flower beds, with the lawn wrapping around the house on the side and rear elevations. From the driveway a set of steps lead to a patio/seating area designed to catch the afternoon and evening sun. Accessible from various points within the house, the patio continues to the side and rear of the house with a feature raised rose garden and retaining brick wall and offers generous outdoor entertaining/dining/relaxing space. In the upper north-west corner of the garden is a greenhouse, a number of raised vegetable beds and the large oil tank. This productive area is screened from the house by a summerhouse with electricity connected; to the front of which stands a further patio/seating area.

At the foot of the driveway is a versatile BARN, which is currently utilised as a HOME GYM with electric and light connected and a useful internal STORE ROOM. We understand that there was historic planning permission (Application No. 13/11096) for conversion to a holiday letting unit.

Opposite the entrance is a field gate that gives access to PADDOCK of approximately 1.47 acres that runs down to the village winter bourne. Within the field is a timber SHELTER.

Directions
Leave Fordingbridge travelling towards Sandleheath and Damerham on the B3078. On reaching Sandleheath, turn right at the crossroads sign posted to Rockbourne and proceed into the village. Take the second turning on the right into Mintys Hill and the entrance will be located after a short distance on the left hand side.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING REGULATION
We are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering checks on all parties involved in the sale of a property - i.e. both buyers and sellers. We use a service offered by The Guild of Property Professionals called Verify365 to perform these checks. This is a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: Woolley & Wallis receive a portion of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.
