A rare opportunity to make a home your own in the heart of the Hampshire countryside.
For the first time since it was built in the 1930s, Mahone Cottage is being offered to the market, presenting a unique opportunity to acquire a home in an elevated position and with uninterrupted views across the surrounding fields.
Situated in the idyllic village of Cheriton, this two/three-bedroom mid-terrace cottage has remained in the same ownership since new. While the property would now benefit from updating throughout, it offers buyers the exciting prospect of creating a home tailored to their own tastes and lifestyle, in a setting that is increasingly difficult to find.
Set back from the road, the property enjoys a particularly appealing approach, with a recently installed gravel driveway providing generous off-road parking. To the rear, a substantial garden offers plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors, whether relaxing in the sunshine, entertaining family and friends or creating a garden to suit your own vision.
The existing accommodation offers flexibility, with two/three bedrooms and a choice of living spaces, including a sitting room with a working open fireplace and a separate snug. The kitchen opens towards the conservatory, providing further scope to reimagine the ground-floor layout and make the most of the available space.
Upstairs, the bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, while the overall layout provides a useful starting point for buyers looking to modernise and personalise their home.
Perhaps the greatest appeal of Mahone Cottage lies in the combination of its established village setting, easy access to miles of countryside walks and untapped potential. Whether you are looking for a first home, a project to make your own or a longer-term investment in a sought-after Hampshire village, this is an opportunity to create something special.
