## Description

The Old Riding School, built on the site of a former equestrian facility, offers an up-to-date living environment with light and airy, versatile accommodation and a neutral colour palette creating an air of calm sophistication. The heating and hot water is provided by an air source heat pump and solar panels. Underfloor heating features throughout the property. Triple glazing insulates for further efficiency. The reception hall leads to a bright and spacious drawing room, with vaulted ceiling and floor-to-ceiling window, along with a brick-built fireplace and wood-burning stove. There is a large study overlooking the garden. Providing the sociable hub of the home, a light-filled adjacent kitchen/dining room is fitted with modern cabinetry with a breakfast bar unit creating a subtle divide within the space, and an external door offering access to the garden. In the westerly wing, there are three en suite bedrooms, with the principal room featuring a well-appointed dressing room and generous en suite bath and shower room. Two further bedrooms benefit from access to en suite facilities, with one linking to the smart family bathroom. The northerly wing is home to a utility room and has a door linking to a family room which adjoins the fourth en suite bedroom. With independent access points, this arrangement of accommodation provides options to offer a self-contained annexe, if required.

The south-facing aspect offers a semi-circular, paved terrace with sheltered walkway adjoining the house, and direct access from the drawing room and principal bedroom. This elevated setting provides a sunny spot to sit, dine and relax with an outlook across to paddocks and farmland beyond. A brick and flint wall forms the boundary to one side, with deep, well stocked borders framing an expanse of lawn. A gravelled driveway provides the approach to the property, where the individual architecture of the building is revealed, and where there is ample parking space for several cars in addition to the detached double garage.

The property occupies a tucked-away position in the village of South Warnborough, with local amenities including a post office with café, church, a village hall hosting clubs and events, a recreation ground and The Poacher Inn. Historic Odiham offers a good range of shopping and services for day-to-day needs, with the larger towns of Basingstoke and Farnham providing a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and cultural facilities. For commuters, there are mainline stations at Hook and Winchfield and road users have access to the M3 for onward journeys into London and southwards to coastal towns. Well-regarded schooling is provided at Long Sutton C of E Primary School, Robert May’s School and independent schools in the vicinity include Lord Wandsworth College, Wellesley, St Neots and St. Nicholas.
