Mole End is set amongst glorious rolling countryside and has undergone imaginative remodelling which includes an exceptional Orangery style kitchen/family room that enjoys a strong relationship with the outside through vast expanses of glass and double doors that open onto the terrace.
The main ground floor reception room is the 22ft drawing room which has a fireplace with a woodburning stove, a window to the front and French windows to the rear. There is also a home office with wooden flooring, a woodburning stove and French windows opening to the rear garden, while the 27ft kitchen and dining area provides an open-plan space in which to dine as a family or entertain guests. The kitchen has shaker style units, a central island and an Aga, with the dining area located in a orangery-style extension with two sets of French windows, panoramic views across the garden and a roof lantern.
The first floor provides three well-presented double bedrooms, two of which are en suite including the principal bedroom with its dressing room. The first floor also has a family bathroom.<br /><br />At the front of the property there is a gravel driveway with plenty of parking space and access to the oak framed detached carport, garage, workshop and store built by renowned Rookery Barns. The garden to the front, side and rear of the cottage includes rolling lawns, dell, paved terracing for al fresco dining and various border shrubs, hedgerows, trees and climbing plants. Beyond the garden there are enclosed paddocks, an all-weather riding arena and a stable block with three loose boxes and a tack room. There is power and water. Vehicle access to the stable block is via a separate gated entrance to the paddocks from Well Lane<br /><br />The property lies in a desirable rural position between the small villages of Shalden and Bentworth, two and a half miles north of the Hampshire market town of Alton. Bentworth has a local pub 'The Sun', church, hall and St Mary's primary school. Alton offers a variety of shops and everyday amenities, as well as a number of restaurants, pubs and cafés, and large supermarkets including Waitrose and M&S Simply Food. The surrounding countryside provides ample opportunity for many country pursuits.
Basingstoke and Alton mainline station provides services to London Waterloo (43 minutes and 1 hour 5 minutes), while there are also good road connections, with the M3 10 miles away. There are several excellent state and independent schools in the area including Alton School, Eggar’s School and Lord Wandsworth College.
