A beautifully presented and deceptively spacious unlisted period cottage in an idyllic and private woodland setting of approximately 2.5 acres.

Description
Brushwood is a beautifully presented 5 bedroom property which has been the subject of extensive sympathetic restoration and extension since the mid 1970’s. In the last 5 years the property has been greatly enhanced and extended by the current owners to create a wonderful family house. While still retaining an abundance of character it offers generous living accommodation in a beautiful peaceful setting – a real hidden gem. A light and airy entrance hall, with woodburning stove, offers additional space to extensive accommodation. There is lovely sitting room with open fire and exposed beams which has a door to the study and opens out into an expansive dining room. The kitchen/breakfast room has a real ‘wow’ factor with a beautiful, fitted kitchen, large island unit and snug area and is perfect for accessing the garden through the fully glazed sliding doors. Off the kitchen is a utility room and WC cloakroom. The first floor has been completely remodelled and provides a newly formed principal bedroom with an impressive fitted en-suite bathroom with separate, walk-in shower and dressing room. A second double bedroom has an en-suite bathroom room/dressing room and there are 3 further bedrooms complemented by the family bathroom.

Outside
The property is approached over Crookham Common and entered via wooden double gates. There is a sizeable lawned garden that extends the recreation space and benefits from a drive, garage, shed and timber store. To the rear there is a southerly facing garden with expansive patio area overlooking the adjoining fields with a large, quality bespoke timber built summerhouse. A real feature of the property is the land which measures over 2 acres and is made up of part paddock land with a stable and the beautiful woodland.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
