A fine Georgian country house in Hampshire
This Georgian property has an interesting history and sits in a splendid position on the edge of Binsted village in Hampshire

Telegraph House was built by the Admiralty in 1829 as a semaphore replay station linking London and Plymouth. The property has lime rendered elevations and sash windows beneath a slate roof - in recent years the property has been remodelled and extended to provide elegant, and flexible accommodation.
The reception hall has a high ceiling, cornicing and sash windows while the dining room boasts an open fireplace, as does the drawing room, which also offers a route out to the terrace through its French doors. Upstairs there are five bedrooms and a family bathroom and the lower ground floor has a separate outside entrance with the opportunity of conversion into an annexe - there is currently a superb media room.

The guide price is £1,595,000. For further information please contact Savills on 01252 729 002 or visit www.savills.co.uk.
