INTRODUCTION
Tollgate Cottage is a truly exceptional Grade II listed period home, originally dating back to the 1820s, thoughtfully enhanced with striking modern architectural extensions. This unique three-bedroom property seamlessly blends character features with contemporary living, offering versatile accommodation including a snug/study, two bathrooms, and generous reception space. Set within approximately a quarter-acre plot, the cottage enjoys far-reaching open field views and a peaceful rural setting, making it ideal for buyers seeking a charming countryside home with modern comforts.
LOCATION
Situated along Winchester Road in the desirable village of Waltham Chase, the property is within walking distance of the historic market town of Bishop’s Waltham. Known for its vibrant High Street, independent shops, traditional pubs, and community feel, the area offers the perfect balance of rural tranquillity and everyday convenience. Excellent road links provide easy access to Winchester, Southampton, Portsmouth, and London, making this an ideal location for commuters and families alike. The nearby South Downs National Park further enhances the appeal with scenic walking routes, cycling trails, and outdoor lifestyle opportunities.
INSIDE
The property opens into a light-filled entrance hall, part of the contemporary extension, featuring floor-to-ceiling glazing that creates a seamless connection between the original cottage and modern addition. The kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home, fitted with quartz worktops, bespoke cabinetry, and ample space for entertaining, alongside provisions for a range-style cooker and integrated appliances.
The spacious sitting room offers a perfect blend of comfort and character, complete with an exposed brick fireplace and wood-burning stove, while bi-fold doors open directly onto the garden, enhancing indoor-outdoor living. The ground floor also hosts the principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes and access to a stylish Jack & Jill shower room with underfloor heating.
Upstairs, two further bedrooms retain period charm with feature fireplaces, complemented by a beautifully appointed family bathroom with freestanding bath, delivering both elegance and practicality.
OUTSIDE
The property is set within approximately 0.25 acres of landscaped grounds, featuring a rear garden extending over 100 feet, predominantly laid to lawn with a paved terrace ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. The gardens enjoy stunning open countryside views, offering a peaceful and private setting.
To the front, a charming courtyard garden enhances the cottage’s kerb appeal, while the rear benefits from a detached garage with electric roller door, substantial car port, and a driveway providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. This combination of space, practicality, and scenic surroundings makes Tollgate Cottage a rare opportunity within the Hampshire countryside property market.
