Finchdean, Waterlooville PO8

Set discreetly back from the central square in the heart of Finchdean, Myrtle Cottage is a charming and characterful period home that perfectly captures the essence of English village living. Symmetrical in design, the property features a central entrance hall, with a cosy sitting room to one side and a formal dining room to the other. Both rooms retain a traditional cottage feel, enhanced by feature fireplaces and exposed details. The dining room flows through to a fitted kitchen at the rear, enjoying views of the rear courtyard with ample natural light.

Upstairs, the cottage offers two comfortable bedrooms, a versatile dressing area or study room, and a family bathroom. From the second bedroom, a ladder-style staircase leads to a loft room, ideal as a hobby space, home office, or additional storage. The interior throughout blends warmth and practicality, with tasteful décor and a sense of timeless charm.

Outside, a pretty pedestrian pathway leads to the property, enclosed by a picket fence and bordered with mature shrubs and fruit trees. The garden provides a mix of patio seating areas, a central lawn, and an original well, while steps lead to a raised, split-level garden that gently ascends towards open countryside. Myrtle Cottage is a delightful home offering character, comfort, and peace in a rarely available village setting.
