Denise White Estate Agents Comments - Dating back to the 18th century and beautifully extended in 2021, The Hutch is a stunning period cottage positioned on the edge of the picturesque village of Alton. This charming home perfectly combines the warmth and character of a traditional cottage with the space and style required for modern family living, creating a property that is both inviting and highly practical.

A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the home and leads through to a cosy lounge positioned to the front aspect. Here, a magnificent exposed stone fireplace forms a striking focal point, housing a multi-fuel stove that brings warmth and atmosphere to the room. Adjacent to the lounge is a versatile study or playroom, offering an ideal space for home working, children's activities, or a quiet retreat.

To the rear of the property lies the true heart of the home - a superb open-plan living kitchen designed with both everyday family life and entertaining in mind. This impressive space incorporates a comfortable sitting area with French doors opening onto the garden, allowing natural light to flood the room. The beautifully appointed kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units and integrated appliances, centred around a stylish island with breakfast bar seating.
