Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Hook, RG27 :

If you want to escape to the country and enjoy a fine, impressive and beautifully presented country home, a viewing of Vann Place is highly recommended.

The former farmhouse of Vann Place Farm is principally a 16th/17th Century Yeoman's home (originally part of the Bramshill Estate), offering immense character and impressive beautifully presented accommodation. The house retains a wealth of charm and a very welcoming atmosphere, with the added benefit of equestrian facilities via the paddock and stables. Set within arguably one of Hampshire's most prestigious village locations and adjacent to the historic cricket green, the property enjoys wonderful views over the Blackwater Valley and Finchampstead Ridges.

The current owners have lovingly restored the property exposing many of the original features including superb inglenook fireplaces (one complete with a \"Priest Hole\"), a bread oven, ship's timbers and vaulted ceilings. The original outside walls are 18\" thick, resulting in a house that is cool in the summer and cosily warm in the winter.

The generous accommodation includes entrance hall, laundry/cloakroom (with under floor heating), 'walk in' pantry, kitchen with feature bread oven and 'Aga style' cooker, drawing room with superb oak half panelling and large feature inglenook fireplace containing multi fuel stove and feature arch to one side with priest hole above, dual aspect family room with feature pine fireplace, large study/third reception room with inglenook fireplace and additional dining room. A superb addition that compliments the property is a fantastic 21ft conservatory; the separate gas fired heating ensuring all year-round use to enjoy the views of the gardens and countryside beyond.

The first floor is accessed via two staircases with the main staircase flanked by oak panelling leading to the split level landing with views to the front of the property and fields beyond. All four large double bedrooms have exposed beam work with both the master and second bedroom boasting a 'Jack and Jill' bathroom. The third bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and the fourth is dual aspect with a fantastic vaulted ceiling exposing 16th century beams. In addition, there is a family bathroom with a clawed 'roll top' bath and separate double width shower cubicle.

To the rear of the property there is a feature terraced patio area with pathway leading to rear access gate, pond/rockery, waterfall and fountain and an ornate 'naturally fed' well, supplying water for the gardens, greenhouse and fishpond. The main part of the garden is laid to lawn with mature well stocked shrub tree borders, including an insulated workshop with telephone & electric points and a wood store area behind, a summerhouse, two further sheds and Gazebo. The gardens are fully enclosed by brick walling with a side access gate leading to a large brick paved courtyard, providing a generous amount of parking with a five barred gate to the private entrance. The gardens and house occupy 0.4 acres in total.

The paddock area is 1.5 acres with two stables and a tack room served by electricity and water, accessed via the shared gravel driveway leading out onto Fox Lane.

The property is thirty five miles from central London (as evidenced by the roman sign by the private entrance), with excellent road links via the M3 and M4 corridors. Fleet station is 5 miles away where the fast train gets you to London Waterloo in 40 minutes.
