This is a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional house, which the current owners have been living in for the last 32 years, and has been a much loved family house. The house is Grade II listed dating from the late 18th century with its classical symmetrical north west front of two storeys with a brick porch with parapet. There are also substantial additions in the early 1900s.
The property is constructed of brick walls of Flemish bond under a tile roof. There are lovely sash windows creating excellent light to the rooms, as well as giving views of the gardens and grounds.
The house is approached by a long drive, leading past the annexe, rising to a sweeping circular parking area with a circular lawned area with an ornate water feature. There is a wealth of period features throughout the house and the well-proportioned accommodation is arranged over three floors and can be seen on the floor plans.
Situated to the southwest of the house, with a separate access from the main drive, is the courtyard of outbuildings, constructed of brick and flint with a tile roof, and comprise a collection of stores, stables and garages. There is also the very useful recently renovated two-bedroom stable cottage, ideal for family or staff use.
The garden and grounds are one of the features of the property and create a stunning backdrop. They are mainly lawned with a variety of well stocked herbaceous borders and mature trees. There is a hard tennis court. To the front of the house and beyond the driveway are well established post and railed paddocks, which are ideal for horses, as there is a shelter in the paddock below the house.
Upper Bordean House is situated in an excellent elevated position in the South Downs National Park to the West of Petersfield. It overlooks open countryside with many fine walks and riding in the immediate area, and is well located for the Georgian market town of Alresford, as well as Petersfield and the cathedral city of Winchester.
Communications to London are close with the A3 at Petersfield (3.7 miles) and railway links to London available from Alton, Petersfield and Winchester.
There are a large number of state and private schools in the area, including Froxfield Church of England Infants School, primary schools at Langrish, Steep and Selbourne, The Petersfield School, Bedales, Churcher's College, Highfield School in Liphook and Alton Convent in nearby Alton. Winchester has Princes' Mead, St Swithun's School for Girls, Winchester College, the Pilgrims School, and nearby Twyford School.
The countryside in the area provides a range of opportunities, with nearby golf courses in
