2 bed detached house for sale

The Street, Old Basing, Basingstoke, Hampshire RG24

Thought to date back to the 1600s and Grade II listed, it offers a warmth and individuality that only a home of this age and setting can provide. The living room is full of character, with exposed beams, low ceilings and a deep inglenook fireplace creating a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. The space leads through to a dining area and into the kitchen, where traditional pine cabinetry, quarry tiled flooring and a stable door add to the cottage's rustic charm. At the rear, the oakframed garden room is light and airy, with a vaulted ceiling and double doors opening to the garden. The ground floor bathroom was updated in 2021 and blends modern style with period feel. Upstairs are two double bedrooms with pleasant views, the principal featuring a cast iron fireplace. A separate cloakroom is positioned just off the landing.

A stream runs quietly alongside the cottage, its soft trickle adding to the sense of calm and escape. The front garden is bordered by mature hedging, offering privacy and a sense of seclusion. To the rear, the courtyard garden enjoys sun through the afternoon and evening, making it a lovely space to relax or entertain. With parking for up to three vehicles, the setting feels peaceful yet well connected. The community is home to a popular village hall, tennis club, a well regarded junior school and an independent bakery, along with a selection of traditional pubs. Just a couple of miles away, Basingstoke offers a wide choice of shops, supermarkets and a mainline station with direct rail links to London Waterloo in around 45 minutes.
