West Meon, Petersfield, Hampshire, GU32

This charming Grade II listed medieval jetty house, rich in history, has undergone various transformations over the centuries.

Originally serving as the Vicarage, it later became the Red Lion public house before its closure in 2011. Since then, the property has been meticulously renovated, in line with guidance from the necessary governing bodies, into a magnificent, spacious and elegant family home. The west-facing rear garden is a true highlight—completely private, thoughtfully landscaped and featuring a large terrace that serves as a stunning sun trap. The garden is beautifully presented, offering an ideal space for relaxation and entertainment.

Upon entering through the front door, you are greeted by an entrance hallway with solid oak flooring, stairs leading to the first-floor landing and an understairs storage cupboard housing the valve for the underfloor heating and electrics. To the left is the principal reception room, featuring solid oak flooring and a large open fireplace, which seamlessly connects to a bright, gloss-white kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with an island unit offering ample storage, two integrated Bosch fan-assisted ovens, an integrated dishwasher, stainless steel sink with a boiling hot water tap, and large timber French doors that open onto the rear terrace. The floor is finished with porcelain tiles. To the right of the hallway is a spacious drawing room with a wood-burning stove and solid oak flooring. Across the hallway from the kitchen, a rear lobby leads to the terrace and garden. This area also connects to a large utility room that houses the oil-fired central heating boiler and washing machine. A separate cloakroom with a porcelain tiled floor is adjacent. A door from the utility room leads to a covered sideway with a corridor that extends to a glazed door, providing additional access to the front of the house and is currently used as an office. Across the corridor is a large cellar with a curved ceiling, doors leading to the front of the property, and a further door leading to a separate, much larger self-contained cellar area.

The first floor is split between two landings and features a large principal suite with floor-to-ceiling built-in wardrobes and a bright, spacious three-piece en-suite shower room. The guest suite boasts a vaulted ceiling with exposed wood beams, a walk-in wardrobe, an en-suite shower room, and a private external door leading to a raised, private terrace with glass screens overlooking the terrace and rear garden below.

Additionally, the first floor includes a beautifully finished family bathroom with a bathtub, twin sinks set onto a stone worktop, two heated towel rails, porcelain tiled floors and walls, and two Velux roof lights. Off the landing, there is a large walk-in airing cupboard with a MegaFlo hot water tank.
A further split-level landing leads to the second floor, where two large bedrooms with exposed beams and a three-piece en-suite shower room await.

Externally, the front of the property features a path leading to the front door, bordered by a small retaining brick wall. The west-facing rear garden is a standout feature, completely enclosed and private, with a well-maintained lawn, lovely flowering borders, and wooden panel fencing complemented by a beech hedge for added privacy.

A gate provides access to private parking. Steps lead down from the garden to the terrace area, which is both private and well-planted, incorporating a built-in pizza oven with a Victorian chimney flue. Additionally, a covered area has been created as an outdoor snug room, complete with lighting and power, offering a cosy space for year-round enjoyment.
