About this listing

A much-loved period home with class and charm in equal measure, nestled in the heart of one of the Test Valley’s most coveted villages. Cob Cottage is a delightful Grade II listed home effortlessly satisfying more 21st century requirements. Character unfolds through exposed timbers, traditional latch doors and inviting, well-proportioned rooms. Carefully maintained and extended over the years, it combines the intimacy of a country cottage with surprisingly generous accommodation. The sitting room, with its beamed ceiling and wood-burning stove, is somewhere to settle comfortably on cooler evenings, while a discreet study recess provides a useful tucked-away workspace. A welcoming entrance hall could double up as a dining room - adjacent to the fitted kitchen where a broad window frames the garden. A separate utility room adding everyday practicality. Upstairs are three double bedrooms, including a charming principal bedroom with exposed framework, a window seat and an en suite shower room, alongside the family bathroom. The gardens are an equally endearing part of the home. There is space for morning coffee, summer lunches and quiet afternoons among the planting, all with a lovely sense of seclusion despite the central village setting. At the garden’s upper boundary, a substantial detached outbuilding incorporates a double garage, separate workshop and loft room, complemented by additional parking accessed from a side road.

Between the river and Harewood Forest, life here invites a closer connection with the countryside: woodland walks, paths through the water meadows and a stroll across the footbridge towards Chilbolton Common. The wider Test Valley is renowned for its fly fishing, while the village’s primary school, church and village hall provide a foundation for community life, with clubs, activities and gatherings offering opportunities to get involved and feel at home. Neighbouring Chilbolton complements this setting with its village shop and post office, church and pub, combining useful everyday amenities with another welcoming village community. Nearby Stockbridge offers independent shops and places to eat, while Andover provides more extensive facilities and rail services to London Waterloo. With Winchester also within easy reach and convenient access to the A303, Wherwell offers an appealing balance of peaceful country living, community and practical connections.
