The accommodation is as shown on the floor plan and includes a light and airy dual aspect drawing room with open fireplace and double doors on
to the terrace. Accessed from the internal hallway off the drawing room is the dining room (currently used as a playroom), the study, bedroom 4 with ensuite shower room and the eat-in kitchen which also benefits from double doors on to the terrace and an Aga. Bedroom number 5, a further bathroom and the utility
room complete the ground floor. Upstairs is the principal bedroom with dual aspect, built in wardrobes and further storage in the eaves. There are two further bedrooms beyond and also the family bathroom with shower over the bath.

Outside
The garden is mostly laid to lawn and surrounds the property on three sides. The L-shape of the property creates a sunny sheltered inner courtyard where the terrace is and is easily accessed from the main living spaces. There is an existing large brick and tile garage with gravelled driveway to the front and side with plenty of
parking for a number of cars. The garden and grounds extend to approximately 0.8 acres.

Location
The historic and unspoilt hamlet of Quarley is situated to the west of Andover in an attractive bucolic setting close to the Hampshire/Wiltshire borders and has the reputation for being one of the county’s prettiest villages. The nearby market town of Andover offers a good range of shops with the cities of Winchester and Salisbury also within reach and provide further shopping, eating and other recreational facilities. The many easily accessible recreational pursuits include walking, riding and golf with boating opportunities to be found on the south coast and Solent. The village of Grateley, a couple of miles to the north has a mainline station and provides direct services to London Waterloo twice hourly (1 hour 20 minutes). The A303 provides excellent access to the West Country or to the east via the A34 and M3. There is a good selection of schools in the area including Farleigh, Dauntsey's School, Salisbury Cathedral School, Godolphin, Bishops Grammar (Boys) and South Wilts Grammar School (Girls).
