Hunters Moon is situated in open countryside between the villages of Hursley and Braishfield, north of Ampfield Wood, with views over the Test Valley. There are local village amenities in Braishfield or Hursley with the market town of Romsey and the Cathedral city of Winchester offering excellent shopping facilities, cultural and leisure facilities. Although deep in the countryside, the cottage is not isolated. At Winchester there is a mainline station to London Waterloo and access north on to the M3 or at Romsey a local railway station and just south access on to the M27 and Southampton International Airport and Parkway Station. The surrounding countryside offers good walking and riding, the River Test for chalk stream fishing and sailing and associated watersports along the south coast. Hunters Moon is an absolutely beautiful thatched house, Listed Grade II, dating from the 17th century, substantially extended in 1984, timber framed with brick infill and inset small pane casement windows under a newly thatched and wired roof (re-thatched in 2008). The house has been completely restored but very carefully retaining all its inherent character. For a thatched house the rooms are light and have good ceiling heights, there are exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace in the drawing room and the kitchen/breakfast room has been fitted with Cheviot Second Nature units, integrated appliances and granite work surfaces. There is a formal dining room and a study beautifully fitted with library bookcases and an oak spiral staircase in the centre of the cottage which rises up to the four bedrooms, the main bedroom being vaulted which also has a dressing room and there are two bathrooms. OUTSIDE From the lane, Hunters Moon is approached through double wooden gates which lead to a driveway and the Detached Double Garage with flint and brick elevations under a tiled and dormered roof. It has a cloakroom and an outside staircase rises up to a balcony and a games room. This building has the potential for numerous uses. THE GARDENS Surrounding the house are the most beautiful mature gardens with classic cottage herbaceous beds and shrub borders. The lawns are studded with trees including a fine walnut and a number of various fruit trees. A terrace adjoins the cottage and there is an ornamental pond with a water feature. The gardens adjoin open countryside with wonderful views to the west and they extend in all to about 0.6 of an acre.
