Description

An impressive detached country residence set within beautifully landscaped grounds of approximately 0.57 acres, enjoying uninterrupted views across surrounding farmland.

Beech Copse is an elegant and thoughtfully updated home, enhanced significantly by the current owners to create a bright, spacious, and inviting living environment. Many of the rooms benefit from picturesque outlooks over the gardens and neighbouring countryside.

The ground floor opens into a striking galleried reception hall with a vaulted ceiling, setting the tone for the rest of the home. A dual-aspect sitting room features double doors leading out to the front garden, while a cosy family room with a double-sided log burner flows seamlessly into the dining room, which in turn opens onto the garden via French doors. The recently installed bespoke kitchen/breakfast room is superbly appointed, offering a wide selection of base units, integrated AEG appliances, and a stylish central island with induction hob. This space extends directly onto a generous terrace, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. Double doors lead from the kitchen into a conservatory, which overlooks the heated swimming pool and open fields beyond. Both the kitchen and conservatory benefit from underfloor heating. Additional ground floor features include a spacious utility room with external access, a practical boot room area, and a shower room.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite offers a luxurious retreat, complete with fitted wardrobes, a dressing area, en suite shower room, and two balconies that take full advantage of the far-reaching views. Three further bedrooms are served by a recently updated family bathroom.

The property is accessed via a traditional five-bar gate, opening onto a large gravel driveway with ample parking and access to a detached garden store. The gardens, which wrap around the house to the south, west, and east, are attractively landscaped with mature planting providing year-round interest. Expanses of lawn create excellent space for recreation, while a substantial terrace is perfect for relaxing or entertaining outdoors. A standout feature is the heated swimming pool, powered by a modern air source heat pump, allowing for extended use from spring through to autumn. The grounds offer a high degree of privacy, enjoy sunlight throughout the day, and provide exceptional views over the surrounding countryside.

Beech Copse enjoys a superb setting in the charming village of Bentworth, offering far-reaching views across open countryside and towards the nearby cricket green. The village sits on the edge of the highly regarded Candover Valley, an area known for its collection of fine country homes. Bentworth itself features the historic 12th-century Parish Church of St Mary’s, a well-regarded primary school rated ‘Good’/‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted, and a popular local pub, The Sun Inn.

A wider range of amenities can be found in the nearby towns of Alton (approximately 5 miles), Basingstoke (10 miles), Farnham (15 miles), and Winchester (20 miles). The property also offers convenient access to London and the national motorway network, with the M3 (Junction 6) around 9 miles away and the A303 easily reached to the west. Rail connections are excellent, with a fast and regular service from Basingstoke to London Waterloo taking around 45 minutes. Alternatively, Alton station, just 5 miles away, provides a direct service to London Waterloo in approximately 75 minutes.
