Maidenstone Heath is one of the most historically significant private residences in Hampshire - a substantial period house of medieval origin set within approximately 3.5 acres of landscaped grounds on the west bank of the River Hamble, with its own private lake, a detached one-bedroom cottage, boathouse and double garage, extending in total to over 8,200 square feet across the main house, annexe and outbuildings. Offering five principal bedrooms, three bathrooms, five reception rooms and a suite of first-floor offices, it presents a rare combination of historic provenance, generous family accommodation and practical workspace in one of Bursledon's most secluded and sought-after positions. The name Maidenstone Heath appears in the historical record as far back as 1353, when a deed recorded a grant of land at the site, and the estate is known to have supported a settled community from at least the 14th century - possibly earlier. The Oysel, Sonday, Blundell and Spencer Smith families are all woven into its story across six centuries, and the property lane itself - Blundell Lane, understood to follow the course of an ancient Saxon drove road to. Winchester - bears the name of the family who owned the estate for much of the 19th century. The core of the present house is understood to date from the 16th century, and the estate retains a quality of timelessness rare in a property so close to both the motorway and the city. Approached via a long, sweeping private drive that curves through mature planting to a broad gravelled sweep in front of the house, the setting immediately conveys the seclusion and scale of the property. The house sits well back from the lane, screened by established trees, and the front grounds open directly towards the River Hamble, with views across the water from the principal elevations. The architecture is characterful and unhurried - warm brickwork, generous proportions and a rhythm of tall sash windows reflecting the Victorian-era improvements that shaped the house into the substantial residence it is today. Accommodation The ground floor is arranged around a generous central lobby, from which the principal reception rooms unfold with a natural sense of flow. Five distinct reception spaces serve a variety of purposes: a sitting room of considerable proportions (just over 24 feet in length), a formal dining room of similar scale, an elegant drawing room extending to over 28 feet - the largest room in the house and a natural venue for entertaining - and a quieter reading room[KM1.1]. A fully equipped gym completes the ground-floor reception accommodation, occupying a well-proportioned room adjoining the kitchen wing. The kitchen and breakfast room lies at the heart of the domestic side of the house, with space for both a cooking and dining area, and connects directly to a utility room of practical scale. The rear section of the first floor has been thoughtfully arranged as a self-contained working environment, with four separate offices of varying sizes, served by their own circulation space and entirely separate in character from the residential accommodation at the front. This arrangement — professional yet private, integrated yet discreet - makes Maidenstone Heath genuinely suitable for those running a significant business from home without compromise to family life. The residential first floor is entered from the main staircase and opens onto a broad landing serving the principal bedroom suite, which is exceptionally generous at nearly 18 by 17 feet, with a dedicated dressing room and en-suite bathroom. Two further double bedrooms and a family shower room complete this level, together with a versatile playroom. The second floor provides two further bedrooms - both good doubles - alongside a cosy snug ideal for a sitting room or quiet retreat, and a four-piece bathroom of notable quality. A terrace[KM2.1] is also accessed from this level, providing an elevated outdoor space with views across the grounds. The Cottage Set within the grounds and entirely independent of the main house, the detached annexe offers an open-plan lounge and kitchen, a bedroom and Two bathroom[KM3.1]s, one with a bath and another with a shower - well suited to use as a guest suite, staff accommodation or a source of rental income. It adds a further 678 square feet to the overall accommodation. Grounds and Outbuildings The grounds extend to approximately 3.5 acres and have been landscaped to make the most of the waterside position. A private boating lake sits within the grounds - an extraordinary feature for a residential property - with a substantial boathouse extending to approximately 1,000 square feet, offering excellent storage and convenient access to the nearby waterfront. The sweeping driveway is itself a statement arrival, with established planting on either side giving the approach a sense of ceremony. Ample off-road parking is provided. A substantial outbuilding - nearly 1,000 square feet across two floors, with a barn and store - provides considerable scope for further workshop, storage or conversion, subject to consent. The front grounds enjoy open views over the River Hamble, with the changing light on the water forming a constant and captivating backdrop throughout the day. A public footpath from Blundell Lane runs north along the river directly into the River Hamble Country Park, providing immediate access to miles of walking along the shoreline without setting foot on a road. Location Bursledon occupies the western bank of the River Hamble at a point where the river widens before its estuary, and the village has been shaped by that relationship with the water across many centuries. The Jolly Sailor, one of Hampshire's most celebrated waterside pubs, and the nearby Elephant Boatyard - where vessels including HMS Elephant were built - are among the landmarks that recall the area's long shipbuilding and maritime heritage. The river itself offers sailing, paddleboarding, kayaking and fishing, and the Hamble is one of the most active sailing waters on the south coast. For everyday needs, the village has a good range of local facilities, and both Waitrose and Marks & Spencer are within easy reach. The River Hamble Country Park provides further open space and recreational amenity. The Hamble Sports Complex offers gym, pool and court facilities nearby. Southampton city centre is approximately 4.5 miles by road, with West Quay shopping centre, extensive dining, museums, galleries and cultural venues all accessible within a short drive. Southampton Airport is 6.6 miles from the property. Commuters are well served: Bursledon railway station is just 0.3 miles away, with services to Southampton Central in around 21 minutes and London Waterloo in approximately 1 hour 10 minutes via Southampton Airport Parkway. The M27 Junction 8 is 1.5 miles from the property, connecting directly to the M3 for London.

Orchard Hill is a substantial late‑1920s Arts and Crafts family home set high above the River Hamble in Old Bursledon, with around 4,500 square feet, seven bedrooms and 1.33 acres of landscaped gardens enjoying long views to the water and beyond. Orchard Hill is a substantial late-1920s Arts and Crafts home set high above the River Hamble in the conservation village of Old Bursledon, enjoying long views across its own 1.33 acres of established grounds to the water and beyond. Arranged over two floors and extending to around 4,500 square feet, it offers generous and flexible family accommodation with seven bedrooms, four bath/shower rooms and four reception spaces, together with extensive parking and a double garage. Approached via a long, tree-lined drive that curves up between banks of planting to a deep gravel sweep, the house sits well back from the lane and feels wonderfully private. The elevations are classic Arts and Crafts, with warm brickwork, steep tiled roofs, tall chimneys and a strong balcony line across the river front. The entrance is deliberately theatrical: a brick-tiled threshold leads to a heavy oak front door and, once inside, you step down into a wide reception hall, with immediate views of the garden and river. Throughout the house, the original detailing has been carefully preserved. William Morris wallpaper and matching curtains appear in a number of rooms, complemented by parquet flooring, panelled oak doors, deep skirting boards and period ironmongery. Fireplaces are a recurring theme; there are several substantial brick inglenooks, some with space to sit in the chimney breast itself, creating atmospheric focal points for the main reception spaces. Accommodation The broad reception hall immediately sets the tone, with parquet flooring underfoot, William Morris wallcoverings and an impressive brick fireplace. From here the principal living space unfolds towards the river. From here, folding stained glass doors, specially commissioned by the owners to echo the colours and forms of the Hamble, open into a beautifully proportioned drawing room spanning much of the width of the house, with windows on more than one side, an ornate brick inglenook and French doors opening directly onto the terrace so that the river forms a constant backdrop. The reception space also links into the large dining room. This arrangement allows the three rooms to work either as one large suite for entertaining or as separate, more intimate areas. From the dining room, through a further set of stained glass folding doors is an impressive garden room, more orangery than conservatory, with brick walls, a glass roof and full-height glazing on three sides overlooking the front gardens. It is an everyday living space filled with light, enhanced by the golden tones of the stained glass doors, and easily opened up in warmer weather. A further reception room, fitted with bookcases and another brick fireplace with a wood burning stove, provides an inviting snug or library. The kitchen/breakfast room runs along the opposite side of the house and is designed for family use, with extensive bespoke timber cabinetry, display cupboards and a long run of Corian work surface wrapping around a central space that comfortably accommodates a large table. At the heart of the kitchen has a four-oven gas Aga set into a tiled recess, which also contributes to the hot water system, with further integrated appliances including a Miele dishwasher and built-in fridge and freezer. A utility room, cloakroom and additional ground floor shower room complete the principal level. An original oak staircase rises from the hall to a generous galleried landing, lit by wide windows overlooking the gardens. The upper level is arranged to make the most of the outlook: several of the bedrooms open via French doors directly onto a long first-floor balcony that runs across much of the river elevation. From here, the view takes in the formal gardens below, the tops of the clipped yews, and beyond them the masts and water of the Hamble. In total there are seven bedrooms, six of which are good double rooms, each with space for freestanding furniture and, in some cases, fitted wardrobes and dressing furniture. The principal bedroom is notably generous, with a sitting area by the windows, extensive built-in storage and dual aspects including over the river. Three bath/shower rooms serve the accommodation on this floor, all offering both bath and separate shower. Gardens and setting The grounds are arranged in a series of distinct but flowing areas. To the front, mature trees and shrub borders line the approach, with lawns and stone retaining walls giving a sense of depth and seclusion. Paths and steps rise gently away from the drive towards orchard-style planting and more informal lawn areas, where trees and specimen shrubs are set within broad sweeps of grass. On the river side of the house, a broad stone terrace runs the full length of the elevation, providing multiple places to sit and dine while enjoying the outlook. From here, steps lead down to a large lawn flanked by clipped yews and established hedging, with the river visible between the trees. Further down the garden, a circular pond and stone-paved surround create a focal point, with open lawns leading to an orchard of productive fruit trees beyond giving a sense of space and scale that is hard to find in such a central village setting. Old Bursledon itself is a small, historic village on the western bank of the River Hamble, designated as a conservation area and long associated with boatbuilding and the river. The nearby Elephant Boatyard recalls the village’s shipbuilding past, while the Strawberry Trail offers well-known walking routes through countryside and along the shoreline. The Jolly Sailor, a popular waterside pub with its own slipway, is a local landmark and a focal point for river life. Bursledon railway station is around half a mile away, connecting to Southampton Airport Parkway for services to London Waterloo in approximately 1 hour 10 minutes, and the M27 and M3 provide straightforward road access to Southampton and London.

The Old Post House, Preston Candover Thoughtfully renovated and sensitively improved over recent years, The Old Post House occupies a cherished position at the very heart of Preston Candover - one of the Test Valley's most sought-after villages. Rolling Hampshire hills lie moments from the door, while a village of genuine and thriving community life surrounds it, and London remains effortlessly within reach. What sets this property apart from so many homes of comparable age and character is its remarkable sense of flow. Far from the warren of low-ceilinged rooms that period properties so often present, The Old Post House moves with ease from space to space - a quality greatly enhanced by the addition of a handsome new oak-framed orangery, which floods the heart of the home with natural light and opens an entirely new dimension of day-to-day living. Private and peaceful from every vantage point, yet superbly connected to the life of the village, this is a home of genuine distinction - one that rewards both quiet contemplation and generous entertaining in equal measure. Character & Provenance Three buildings, one remarkable home. The Old Post House has its origins in three separate buildings of varying ages, each of which has been woven together over the generations into a single, cohesive residence of 2,321 sq ft. Lived in, worked in, and deeply loved across many chapters of village life, the property carries its history lightly - confidently rather than apologetically. Evidence of that past is everywhere, and all the better for it. Sections of original wattle and daub walling have been carefully preserved and put on display; ancient beams speak quietly of former uses; and the building's long and proud life as the village post office is woven into its very decoration. Against this, the present reveals itself just as clearly: a beautifully appointed kitchen completed in 2024, double glazing throughout, and a new boiler installed in 2025. Whether one chooses to lean into the property's irresistible country cottage character or to introduce a more contemporary aesthetic, both would suit this building with equal ease. Multigenerational Living & Flexible Arrangements The retention of two original staircases lends The Old Post House a natural and largely self-contained duality - a split way of living that is ideally suited to multigenerational households or those seeking dedicated space for home working. The upper floors are connected by a hallway but could readily be made more entirely independent. There are, in effect, two front doors. On the ground floor, several generously proportioned reception rooms offer further scope - whether as shared family space, separate home offices, or studio accommodation. This is, after all, a building that has housed more than one business simultaneously within living memory. Setting Privacy at the heart of village life The L-shaped footprint of The Old Post House - wrapping around its courtyard and gardens - creates an enviable sense of enclosure and privacy. Every outlook faces inward, onto garden, terrace, or sky, and yet beyond the front gates, the village unfolds with ease. A short stroll in one direction leads to the community-owned Candover Valley Store - a much-loved local institution that also serves as the village's post office - alongside the Village Hall, recreation ground, and a thriving tennis club. In the other, barely a minute's walk away, stands The Candover: a newly opened pub with rooms of impressive style and ambition, owned and run by three local residents. It is a venture that feels destined to put Preston Candover firmly on the map as a destination in its own right. Accommodation - Ground Floor Generous, purposeful, and wonderfully cohesive The ground floor of The Old Post House offers a rare sense of warmth and intention. Kitchen, orangery, drawing room, study, dining room, breakfast room, utility room, and cloakroom flow together as a cohesive whole - each space with its own character and purpose, yet unified by a sense of easy, comfortable living. The kitchen - approximately two years old, finished to an excellent standard and complete with integrated appliances and a useful larder - opens naturally into the breakfast room and on further to the dining room and new orangery, extending the heart of the home into a bright and sociable space of real quality. The dining room features a wood-burning stove, while the breakfast room conceals a particularly well-placed secret cupboard - perfectly proportioned for a wine collection. Accommodation - First Floor Four doubles, three bathrooms, and a principal suite of distinction The first floor provides four generously sized double bedrooms, each enjoying excellent natural light and pleasing views over the gardens and surrounding village. Three bathrooms serve the floor, of which two are en suite. The principal suite is, quite simply, the star of the show. Exposed beams lend it an atmosphere of real warmth and age, while the en-suite bathroom - finished in stone, with a freestanding feature bathtub as its centrepiece - offers a level of luxury one might more readily associate with a fine boutique hotel. Storage is excellent throughout the upper floor. Outside Gardens, courtyards, and outdoor living spaces Arriving through the wooden vehicle gate, a gravelled driveway provides parking for three or more cars alongside a practical garage - currently in use as a workshop and motorcycle store - and several further enclosed storage units. The raised lawn garden is a particular delight: edged by mature, considered planting and presided over by an ancient yew of real presence. Tucked within its canopy sits an impressive treehouse, complete with climbing and swinging apparatus - a space that will prove irresistible to younger members of the household for years to come. A wonderfully private decked terrace offers an ideal setting for outdoor dining and relaxed summer evenings. Descending closer to the house, the courtyard-level terrace - fitted with built-in seating and a substantial jacuzzi, included within the sale - completes an outdoor offering that is as versatile and considered as the home itself.

Hook Park House, a magnificent, detached home is tucked away within the exclusive Hook Park Estate on the edge of Warsash. Located on the sought after Hamble peninsula this is the largest home on the estate offering 4600 sq ft of living space surrounded by the kind of setting that most buyers only dream of - ancient woodland, protected nature reserve and short stroll from the shimmering waters of Southampton Water. On leaving Newtown Road in Warsash you will drive over a bridge into Hook Park and the house is approached from the route of the original carriage drive along a part gravelled private driveway. The original mansion, Hook House, built by William Hornby in 1790 was modelled on Government House in Bombay, where he was the Governor, on land given to him on his retirement by the British Government. Over the ensuing years the house was neglected by his descendants but early in the 20th century a new owner started a renovation project but it is likely that a fire was accidentally started by contractors working on the house and it was totally destroyed and never rebuilt. However, the Coach House, Orangery, and other staff cottages were untouched by the fire and have all been sympathetically converted to create 6 very unique homes in a quintessential, country house setting. The estate covers an area of approximately 5 acres of which just under 3 acres are for communal use by the residents and includes part of the original walled garden to Hook House which is now an orchard and another part which is a more formal garden with a long herbaceous border and central area with a dinning table and chairs and other secluded seating areas for the sole use of the residents. This home has been occupied by the same family since its completion 25 years ago and during that time has been modernised and extended to provide spacious multi-generational living for all ages. Upstairs there are 6 bedrooms, 2 of which share a full ensuite bathroom, 2 others share a full bathroom and the principal bedroom has a bathroom, dressing room ensuite and double aspect windows overlooking the garden. On the ground floor there is a welcoming entrance hall that leads to several reception rooms that include a drawing room with open fire, dining room, library/TV room, orangery, study and as the 'hub of the house' there is a large well fitted kitchen/breakfast room with central island unit and french doors leading to a large terrace for outdoor living which includes a built in charcoal barbecue. The accommodation has many features including atriums to the orangery and breakfast area which also benefit from underfloor heating. The remainder of the house has traditional gas fired central heating. There are solar panels on the roof to the rear, a Tesla Powerwall smart battery and double glazed windows. All the ground floor rooms facing the front have recently installed wooden shutters. Also on the ground floor is a bedroom with an ensuite wet room and cloakroom which together with one of the reception rooms could be converted into a self contained annexe with its own entrance and access to a private part of the garden. Outside the rear garden is divided into 3 areas surrounded on 2 sides by the original Grade II Listed garden wall providing total privacy and protection together various seating areas to enjoy the sun at all times of the day. There are shrub and herbaceous borders and a small fenced off area with raised vegetable and herb beds. To the front there is a double garage which is currently used as a gym and storage. Hook Park Estate is a very prestigious location close to Warsash with access to the Hook with Warsash Nature Reserve which combines, woodland, pasture and wetlands to provide a habitat for a diverse range of wildlife and includes the shoreline of Southampton Water up to the mouth of the River Hamble well known as a yachting Mecca for yachtsmen with several marinas within a few minutes drive. Warsash has a wide range of local amenities including several pubs, shops, a cafe, an active Tennis Club within walking distance and several golf clubs a short drive away. There are numerous footpaths and one that leads to the village of Warsash along the fore shore where the iconic Pink Ferry will take you across the river to Hamble village. Solent Way, a well known walking route, is within a few minutes walk and is very popular for dog walking. Access to the M27 at J9, airports in Southampton and Bournemouth and mainline trains from Fareham and Southampton Airport Parkway give easy access to to all parts of the UK and areas of Europe. There is a Management Company, run solely by the residents that requires unanimity on all decisions, for the maintenance of the communal grounds in which each residence is granted a share and is responsible for the payment of an annual maintenance charge which is currently £475.00 per quarter (£1900.00 pa) Location: Southampton City Centre: 8.8 miles Portsmouth City Centre: 15 miles Marinas on the east bank of the River Hamble - 3.5 miles Southampton Airport Parkway - 13.5 miles Southampton Airport - 13.1 miles Solent Airport (Private Aircraft) - 7.5 miles M27 J9 - 4.1miles Prep Schools: West Hill Park Titchfield Boundary Oak Wickham Meon Cross Stubbington Pilgrims Winchester Public Schools: Winchester College Portsmouth Grammar Churchers Petersfield King Edward VI Southampton St Swithuns Winchester Primary Schools: Locks Heath Junior School Secondary Schools: Brookfield School Warsash For more information and an appointment to view please contact: David Brierley: 07464 679875 or [email protected]

On leaving Newtown Road in Warsash you will drive over a bridge into Hook Park which is worlds away from the mainstream and an oasis of calm. The original mansion, Hook House, built by William Hornby in 1790 was modelled on Government House in Bombay, where he was the Governor, on land given to him on his retirement by the British Government. Over the ensuing years the house was neglected by his descendants but early in the 20th century a new owner started a renovation project but it is likely that a fire was accidentally started by contractors working on the house and it was totally destroyed and never rebuilt so the land was sold for development. Located on a large plot of 1.3 acres Cotswold House is a substantial family home with an attractive facade to the front that is approached over a sweeping gravel driveway which leads to the front entrance, two double length garages with space for 8 cars, a single garage attached to the Pool House and ample parking for several cars. There are steps up to an imposing front door which leads into a large reception hall. The accommodation in the house extends to 4200 sq ft and is spread over 2 floors which includes on the ground floor a drawing room with substantial stone open fireplace and oak beams, original polished wood flooring, double aspect dining room, family room and a kitchen with separate breakfast/casual dining area. On this floor there is also a guest bedroom with ensuite bathroom and separate rain shower. There is also a cloakroom and utility room.. Stairs lead to the first floor landing with access to a large balcony overlooking the nature reserve and Southampton Water. A principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom and 3 further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a small nursery are all on this floor. Outside there is a single story building of 543 sq ft currently used as a one bedroom home called The Pool House which could easily be converted ( subject to planning regulations) to create a gym, sauna, spa, showers and changing rooms for the pool(currently unused) that is located to the front of this building. Adjoining the main house there is a double length garage with a 2 bedroom flat that has a kitchen/living area above and a separate entrance to the rear. Between the house and garage is an internal yard currently used as a dog run and kennel. There is a gardener's WC there too. The second double length garage is detached with a one bedroom Garden Flat above. Both these buildings lend themselves to re-development as a home office or incorporation into the main house to create more space. Currently, each unit is let under the terms of the Renters Rights Act which became law on May 1st 2026 and are generating approximately £1000.00 per month each, inclusive of heat, light and Council Tax. The Pool House is separately rated at Band C. The two flats are included in the main house for Council Tax purposes. Agent's Note: The Pool House and one of the flats has been separately assessed for energy efficiency, the other flat is included in the assessment of the main house. AI has been used to demonstrate what the pool could look like when filled with water.
