• Bedrooms: 5

A detached cottage style residence of character pleasantly positioned within a small rural community and enjoying an unusual partly wooded setting with views to the rear over adjoining countryside.

• Attributes
  
• Situation
  Doctors Hill is a charming extremely unusual lane linking Newtown Road and Branches Lane. This rural community features many private homes of character and quality surrounded by areas of farm land and countryside.
  
• Position
  Autumn Glen enjoys an elevated position within partly wooded grounds extending to 1.22 acres and overlooking adjoining farmland to the rear. The grounds include a deep recessed partly wooded valley providing a delightful setting. A staircase from the upper area of garden to the base of the valley has been constructed to access this unusual feature.
  
• Accommodation
  The property offers excellent family accommodation featuring a large kitchen/living room at the rear overlooking the terrace and swimming pool area. The double garage adjoining the property has an internal staircase giving access to a useful storage room/attic currently divided into two separate rooms with windows to the front and rear.
  
• Improvement Potential
  We would suggest there may be potential for adapting or converting the double garage into additional accommodation (for example an annexe). This conversion would require planning and building regulation approval.
  
• Location
  Sherfield English is situated just inside the Hampshire/Wiltshire border in the Test Valley area. It has a village store with Post Office, recreation ground, garage, church, village hall and public house. Dunwood Manor Golf Club is within two miles. Romsey approximately 4 miles away. The village is approximately half way between Salisbury and Southampton (about 11 miles). The New Forest is approximately 5 miles away at Nomansland. There are primary schools at the nearby villages of Awbridge, Lockerley and West Wellow.
