About this listing

The property has a particularly fascinating history, having formerly served as a public house before closing in the early 1900s, with aspects of its past recorded in local publications. Today, it has evolved into an elegant and comfortable family home, with the sympathetic renovation carefully balancing the character and proportions of the original building with a fresh and contemporary style. The handsome double-fronted façade provides an attractive first impression and, on entering, there is an immediate sense of the property's period origins. The accommodation unfolds naturally across two floors, with a light and airy atmosphere throughout and a particularly pleasing balance between more formal entertaining and relaxed day-to-day living. The ground floor provides a series of comfortable and well-proportioned reception spaces, each with its own character whilst flowing naturally from one to another. The principal living areas provide inviting spaces in which to relax and entertain, while the kitchen and adjoining snug form a natural focal point for everyday family life. Throughout the house, considerable care has been taken with the renovation, introducing a sophisticated yet understated finish that complements rather than competes with the building's Georgian character. The result is a home that feels both established and contemporary, retaining a tangible sense of history whilst being exceptionally well suited to modern living. A useable cellar provides valuable additional space and is another interesting element of the property's historic fabric. On the first floor are four bedrooms, providing excellent flexibility for family life, visiting guests or home working. The bathrooms have been finished with the same attention to detail evident elsewhere in the house. Outside The gardens are an especially appealing feature and have been extensively landscaped to create a beautifully considered setting for the house. Carefully planned planting and areas for outdoor seating and entertaining combine to provide interest throughout the garden and an attractive outlook from the principal rooms. There is a delightful Summer House, insulated with a cedar roof. Of particular note is the property's direct access from the gardens to the Basingstoke Canal, an unusual and highly desirable feature that provides an immediate connection to the water, towpath and surrounding countryside. Situation The Old Cricketers Inn occupies an attractive position on Colt Hill in Odiham, alongside the Basingstoke Canal and Colt Hill Bridge. The setting combines a rural waterside environment with convenient access to the village of Odiham and the surrounding Hampshire countryside. The property is well placed for access to the M3 motorway, with Junction 5 providing connections towards London and the south coast. Hook railway station is approximately 3 km from the postcode and provides rail connections on the main line towards London Waterloo and the west of England. Odiham is approximately a mile from the property and provides a range of everyday amenities, independent shops, restaurants and village facilities. The surrounding area offers extensive opportunities for walking, cycling and enjoying the Hampshire countryside, with the Basingstoke Canal immediately adjacent to the property. Conveniently situated close to Odiham town centre, the property is equally well suited to a growing family or a couple seeking generous and flexible accommodation. In all, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a handsome Georgian home combining fascinating local history, beautifully renovated interiors, extensively landscaped gardens and an exceptional canalside connection.
