Meon Valley Village Location and an Area of Outstanding Natural BeautyCorhampton Court sits proudly on approx. 2.38 acres of formal gardens on the outskirts of the small village of Corhampton, which lies in the valley of the Meon River, in the extreme east of the Parish the river forms the boundary. Corhampton Court is the primary eastern wing of the former Corhampton House, a substantial, extended mid 18th Century Manor House with mellow brick elevations of ochre-colour. In the mid 18th Century Corhampton House was refurbished and became the primary residence of the Wyndham family, the house and landscape was kept in the Wyndham family until the 1950’s when it was converted to a care home and subsequently divided to form three separate impressive dwellings. Set within beautiful parkland grounds, with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside, this impressive property provides extensive accommodation spread over two primary floors. The living space exceeds 4,163 sq ft and comprises; entrance hall with doors leading to a guest style suite/annexe and the primary house, within the main house is an extensive family room with bay window overlooking the grounds leading to an inner hallway with a cloakroom and kitchen/breakfast room, through an arched opening is an extensive two storey dining hall, with galleried landing over, which leads to an impressive dual aspect drawing room with bay window overlooking the grounds and fields beyond.

The ceilings in the main house are almost 13’ high with large sash windows (most with original shutters), each room is well proportioned, elegant and have an airy and bright feel. On the first floor are four bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate shower room. On the northern wing of the ground floor is a guest annexe with storage room, bedroom, bathroom and sitting room. When purchasing this rather impressive linked property, you are buying more than just a family home in an enviable location, you are also preserving a little slice of history for the next generation. Corhampton is located almost equidistance between the market town of Petersfield and the city of Winchester, both with good railway links to London Waterloo (less than 60 minutes – times may vary). Local facilities include Corhampton Golf Club, which was founded in 1891, a local post office, village store, the Bucks Head pub and sitting on a small mound is a Saxon church, believed to have been built around 1020. Located in an area of outstanding natural beauty in the upper Meon Valley, the valley is wide cutting through chalk uplands and sits within the National Park, early internal viewing of this impressive family home is strongly recommended in order to appreciate both the accommodation and location on offer.
