5 bed detached house for sale

Tunworth, Basingstoke, Hampshire RG25

Manor Farm is a wonderfully attractive farmhouse
which has been sensitively updated into a fabulous family home.

The farmhouse, walled garden and extensive tithe barn and range of outbuildings has changed little from the traditional farm layout of the 17th Century. The house, tithe barn, granary and brick stores are all Grade II listed.

The house has the original room layout which has
evolved from the 16th to 20th Centuries and features some lovely, exposed timbers, working fireplaces, vaulted ceilings to the first floor, wide boarded floors upstairs and a panelled drawing room. The house has a most impressive part timbered main façade which coupled with the magnificent tithe barn presents further potential/options.

Tunworth is a small rural village positioned between the Hackwood and Herriard Park Estates lying conveniently a few miles southeast of Basingstoke. The surrounding countryside is essentially unchanged predominantly of gently undulating agricultural land and ancient woodland. A network of local lanes
provide access to the neighbouring villages of
Upton Grey which has an excellent shop and The Hoddington Arms public house, Greywell and Odiham. The Herriard Park Estate owns much of the surrounding land, which has
remained unspoilt over many generations.

The M3 approximately 4 miles away connects with London and the south coast. Hampshire is well catered for with top performing state and independent schools in the area,
including Wellesley School, St. Neots, Winchester College, Lord Wandsworth College and Wellington. There are many footpaths and bridleways in the area which provide a varied network of walks or rides.

Tithe barn of 8 bays, matching pair of
threshing bays, a wonderful store providing a private screen from the lane to the inner courtyard. Behind lies the Granary set on staddle stones. There are brick stables, workshop and a covered vehicle store. The Pole barn is in the top paddock and behind is an old Nissen Hut. Overall the buildings provide about 10,000 sq. Ft
of covered space. In addition, there is a large timber workshop with adjoining store and brick store in the walled garden.

A rear drive swings past the end of the tithe barn into the inner garden/grounds which are essentially grassed having been a working
farm and are where a lovely garden could be created. Beyond is an unfenced paddock with separate access onto the lane and also a gate opening directly onto an adjoining bridle path. There are some beautiful old trees which provide an established mature setting. Overall about 2.95 acres (1.19 ha) providing an excellent space for children to roam freely within.
