Longridge Farm - A complete life experience

A property for sale in Hampshire is not so much a home but more a complete life experience. Longridge Farm at Swanmore, near Bishops Waltham, comes with five acres of formal gardens and paddocks. But there’s much more to it than that.

“As contemporary homes go, this is head and shoulders above most of the rest. It is arranged over three floors that include two en-suite guest bedrooms opening off a fascinating galleried landing,” explains Matthew Hallett of the Winchester office of Dreweatt Neate.

“One wing of the ground floor has a vaulted gymnasium with a spiral staircase at one end to a galleried coffee lounge. At the other, just past the spa pool, another spiral staircase descends to a party area with fibre optic ceiling and adjoining a 3,000 bottle wine store and cinema.

“A central staircase dominates the reception hall, flanked by two sets of steps into the dining hall where French doors in a glazed wall open onto the terrace and lawns.

“Solid oak units and a range cooker in a chimney breast-style recess give the kitchen / breakfast room a traditional country atmosphere.

“Another ground floor wing contains a family room with glazed wall to one side and two sets of French windows to the other, a drawing room with magnificent open fireplace, and a study.

“On the first floor, the vaulted master suite occupies one wing. Passing through a dressing room reveals an en-suite with freestanding bath, pebble floored wet area, and twin waterfall showers. There are another three family bedrooms, one en-suite, as well as a family bathroom.

“Longridge Farm is approached along a gravel drive. Gardens surround it with post and rail enclosed paddocks beyond.”
