OWNERS COMMENTS
?It has been a joy and privilege to live in East House, a sentiment echoed by everyone from toddler to grandparent who visits this wonderful property. It has an immediate feeling of warmth, belonging and homeliness that seamlessly combines the property's history, elegance, and comforts of a modern family home. Its position in the centre of Titchfield, with its large tranquil garden and pond, charming summer house, and spire of St. Peter's Church as a gentle backdrop, is unique within the village. But there is only one way to get a proper sense of how special East House is and that is to visit it.?

GROUND FLOOR
Entering from the gravel driveway though French doors into the spacious kitchen, the family home feeling of East House becomes immediately apparent. The bespoke, hand-made Mark Wilkinson kitchen features a 4-oven gas Aga with 2 hot plates and a warming side-plate, complemented by a NEFF electric hob/fan oven cooker, Bosch dishwasher and a Hisense double fridge/freezer. Integral to the kitchen is a large walk-in pantry providing plenty of convenient practical storage. Separate from the kitchen is a utility room with toilet, Belfast sink, washing machine and dryer. The kitchen leads straight into an elegant dining hall with wonderful 17th Century limestone slab flooring that is at the heart of the ground floor. From here, access branches off to the main reception rooms, a study, staircase to the first floor, the utility room, and a boot room hallway leading to the backdoor onto the driveway. The main reception room is an inviting drawing room, full of natural light from its large sash windows with an elegant open fireplace as its focus. A separate, good sized family room, provides a cosy retreat ideal for chilling out and big screen viewing. Also off the dining hall is the dedicated study that sits above a deep cellar.

FIRST FLOOR
The first floor comprises three large bedrooms, each offering plenty of space with its own distinctive charm. As well as considerable bedroom space, the master bedroom has a large dressing room that could be a sixth bedroom. The bathroom on this floor features a fixed rainfall shower head over the bath with an integrated handheld shower head facility, a toilet, hand basin and full-length heated towel rail.

SECOND FLOOR
The second floor has two further double, attic bedrooms, each with exposed beams. The second bathroom has a free-standing roll-top bath with traditional cranked bath and handheld shower tap mixer, a toilet, wide hand basin and combined radiator and heated towel rail.

OUTSIDE
The sweeping gravel driveway opens up onto a substantial parking area with a lovely old, large, open, timber-framed garage and workshop on one end, a Georgian style summer house on one side and the garden on the other. The summer house, with its full-length sash windows and French doors, is effectively an external reception room looking out over the pond onto the garden, perfect for relaxing and entertaining throughout the year.
The stunning, mature, south-facing garden incorporating the pond and a large patio that captures the sun all day, has been carefully landscaped to combine tranquility, elegance and the practicality of a family garden. The large lawn area, surrounded by flower beds with an extensive mix of herbaceous, perennial and exotic plants and shrubs, is big enough for family ball games or a marquee garden party. The spire of St. Peter's Church provides the perfect backdrop to this idyllic and peaceful garden.

SITUATION & AMENITIES
Historic Titchfield is situated east of the River Hamble and 2 miles from the Solent between Fareham and Locks Heath. As its name suggests, the village is steeped in history dating back to the 6th century with connections to Henry VIII, Charles I and Shakespeare. St. Peter's Church, the oldest church in Hampshire with 7th century origins, is a remarkable example of England's religious and architectural heritage. East House is on the corner of East Street and Church Path. The quiet Titchfield Canal is a 2 minute walk, whilst the bustling High Street, with its shops, cafes, and pubs is only 3 minutes away. Also in the village centre is a doctor's surgery, pharmacy and a private dental practice. Titchfield Primary School is located within the village, and West Hill Park Prep School is on the outskirts. The 15th century Titchfield Abbey, rich with infamous royal history, and the Titchfield Haven bird sanctuary bordering the canal, are both 10 minute walks. Meon Shore on the Solent, with views of Ryde and Cowes on the Isle of Wight, is a picturesque 2 mile walk along the canal and bird sanctuary. There are good bus services to Fareham (2 miles), Southampton (11 miles west), and Portsmouth (12 miles east), and there are excellent rail services from Fareham and Southampton Parkway connecting to the rest of the UK. Central London is easily commutable on a daily basis. Southampton airport has regular services within the UK, to the Channel Islands and several European destinations.
