I The Property Steep Farm is a lovely package made up of a Grade II listed farmhouse dating from the 16th Century with later additions, sitting in pretty gardens. The house is very well presented, with well-proportioned rooms and numerous period features including beams and Inglenooks. The kitchen and garden room give an interesting contemporary twist as do the bathrooms. The house abuts the garden on one side and the old farmyard, which now forms a large courtyard on the other. Across the courtyard, are two cottages and a large office suite, together with sauna room, and garaging. The cottages offer flexible secondary accommodation and the office is served by its own kitchen and WC. In all a unique package which can only be truly appreciated on viewing.
The A3 provides good regional transport links to the M25 and beyond and the larger centres of Winchester, Guildford and Chichester are all within reasonable driving distance, as are the harbours and creeks of the South Coast. I Location The property lies in a rural setting near the Hangers on the edge of Steep, with easy access to the centre of Petersfield. It is the principle house in a small hamlet at the end of a private road. Steep village is highly sought after, under 2 miles from Petersfield and probably best known as the home of Bedales School (a 5 minute walk across the fields from the house). Apart from Bedales, the village has a thriving primary school and two pubs, with The Cricketers in the main village and the ever popular Harrow Inn also just a short walk from the house. Petersfield has a comprehensive range of facilities including Waitrose and a mainline station with train services to London Waterloo in just over an hour. The area is particularly blessed with an excellent range of schools including Bedales as already mentioned, Churchers College, Ditcham Park and in the state sector TPS and Bohunt.
There are a number of wonderful footpaths and bridleways in the surrounding area including the South Downs Way, Hangers Way and Sussex Border Path, some of which can be accessed directly from the private road to the house, a real bonus for walking the dog.
