Walking up the pathway sets the scene for this beautiful period cottage which blends the charm of the old with the convenience of a modern lifestyle having been lovingly restored by the current owners. As soon as you open the door, you are taken in by the bright double height entrance hallway opening into the real heart of the home, a stunning open plan living area. It can be divided into different spaces with furniture but also provides a wonderful place to entertain friends and family. 32 people have sat round the extended dining table at Christmas. The warmth of the reclaimed herringbone wooden flooring throughout the room is a real feature too. <br/><br/>The kitchen is always the heart of any family home and the layout here also continues the feeling that this is a home to share with friends and the wooden units compliment the whole feel of the home. However it is also a proper cooking kitchen with lots of worktop space, storage, 3 ovens and a practical utility room which serves as a laundry and pantry as well. Two French doors open out into the garden from the main living area and there are full bifold doors out from the kitchen which means the garden becomes an extension of the living space as well. The whole room benefits from underfloor heating too. <br/><br/>There is a cosy snug lounge to the front of the house with the original bay front and sash windows. A perfect place to curl up with a book, the dog and some music when you light the log burner. <br/><br/>The ground floor also has a spacious modern shower room with rain drop shower. <br/>Climbing the stairs of the double height entrance to the top floor leads you to three generous bedrooms and a smart family bathroom. They offer calm, comfortable spaces, each retaining the grace and proportions that make period homes so special.<br/><br/>The private rear garden feels like an extension of the living space. The large raised patio with feature railway sleepers is a wonderful place for barbecues, entertaining or just spending a quiet relaxed time together. In addition to the shed, there is a versatile outbuilding which could accommodate a whole series of uses, away from the main house. To the rear of the garden is an off street parking space. The large lawned front garden means the house is well set back from the road, increasing the sense of privacy too. <br/><br/>Location<br/>Echo Barn Lane is one of Wrecclesham’s most sought-after addresses being close to excellent schools, acres of green space and the historic Georgian town centre of Farnham with its independent shops, cafés, and restaurants is a short walk away. More local facilities are available at The Ridgway, providing the convenience of a Tesco Express, butchers and bakery as well as Langham's recreation ground. Rowledge village is also on the doorstep, with its quintessential village green, cricket and tennis clubs. There is an excellent choice of local and state schools in the area. <br/><br/>For weekend adventures, Alice Holt Forest offers 2,000 acres of woodland walks, cycling, and outdoor pursuits.
