Haydown Farm is a very appealing period property with origins dating back to the early 16th century with later additions, and the benefit of a range of barns and grounds extending to circa 3 acres. The farmhouse itself is a well loved family home which now has the potential for sympathetic improvement. The accommodation is well laid out, with ground floor accommodation comprising a tradition farmhouse kitchen with a range of wall and base units and an oil-fired AGA. An elegant dining room has original oak beams, parquet flooring and an inglenook fireplace with wood buring stove. The Sitting room is double aspect with open fireplace with stone surround and French doors onto the rear courtyard. In addition there is a well-proportioned study, utility room and downstairs w/c. First floor accommodation includes four good sized bedrooms, all with built in storage, the principal bedroom having an en suite bathroom, and a further family bathroom. Adjoining the ground floor of the house is a further wing, a former barn which is now divided into a store room, workshop and garden room. This area in particular offers great potential to convert into further living space, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

The Barn Complex
To the north of the main building is Haydown Barn, a complex of agricultural outbuildings and stores with an internal footprint in excess of 3,500 square feet with full planning consent to convert to a residential dwelling Application Reference Numbers: 22/03347/FULLN and 22/03348/LBWN). The current layout comprises a double height area of the main barn, with many original beams and barn doors to front and rear. There are additional single-story cart sheds and stabling adjoining the barn which will also form part of the conversion. Period features include cob walls and historic beams and weatherboarding.

Gardens and Grounds
The grounds are a particular feature of the property, extending in total to about 3 acres. The formal gardens immediately adjacent to the main house are a delightful mix of lawned areas, borders and beds and mature trees. A recently installed driveway provides access to the south side of the main house, with an additional access to the rear and to the barns. There is a swimming pool between the barns and the courtyard. The gardens reach down to the Wallop Brook, part of which is included within the ownership. The brook is a very good example of a chalk stream for which Hampshire renowned and is a tributary of the River Test. Further grounds include a paddock to the rear of the barn, a small water meadow and an island in between the two streams.
