The Hassock, 21 OxenwoodAbout this home

The Hassock is a Victorian property that not only offers light, space and height in abundance; it is a delightful period property that has been extended and improved. It has good reception rooms as well as a centrally placed kitchen. There is a delightful conservatory that links the house to the outbuilding which, could serve as a 5th bedroom or a further reception room. The end result is a house that offers excellent accommodation with beautiful gardens and woodland. The property also benefits from planning consent (PL/2021/03227) to extend the accommodation further on the 2nd floor. Oxenwood lies in the heart of a Conservation Area and was a sparsely populated area until several Victorian buildings were erected in the 1860s, designed by Samuel Teulon, a notable Gothic Revival architect, which then gave the area a core and village focus. On the borders of three counties, Wiltshire, Hampshire & Berkshire, the property is located in the hamlet of Oxenwood, amongst wonderful, rolling countryside consisting of estates and farmland, near the highly popular villages of Shalbourne & Vernham Dean. Upon arrival, there is immediately a sense of its wonderfully private setting. There is an abundant network of footpaths and bridleways that are easily accessible from the property, allowing for some delightful dog walks and riding.
