Foxholes is a detached, characterful property
with planning permission granted to create a
superb family home with open-concept living,
taking full advantage of the striking panoramic
views. The house is believed to be a former part
of the neighbouring Aldworth estate built in the
1860s by Alfred Lord Tennyson. Making the most
of its elevated woodland position, with much of
the accommodation opening onto a large sun
deck and taking in the magnificent views of the
surrounding forest, which is set on the highest
point of the South Downs. The principal rooms
have been designed with large windows to
maximise the far reaching views.
The charming, detached stone built cottage with
vaulted and timbered roof can be adapted into
additional guest accommodation or home office.<br /><br />The house is approached via a long private drive leading to a parking and turning area. A path leads down to a stone paved barbecue area surrounded by banks planted with a variety of ornamental trees and shrubs. The path continues to an elevated timber sun deck extending the full width of the house, with its vantage point for enjoying the magnificent views. There are steps up to a roof terrace and down into the gardens. The grounds slope away from the house into a valley, planted with a wide variety of shrubs and trees and where a spring-fed stream trickles down through a series of ponds to a small lake with an island. Beyond the garden the grounds comprise of mature woodland, which in spring enjoy a blanket of bluebells.<br /><br />Foxholes is surrounded by delightful woodland and in a highly desirable and secluded location on one of Haslemere’s most sought after residential roads. Tennyson’s Lane, named after poet Alfred Lord Tennyson, leads to hundreds of acres of National Trust land providing wonderful walking and riding countryside. Haslemere town is about 1.9 miles and provides a good variety of boutique shopping, restaurants, a Waitrose supermarket, recreational facilities and a mainline station to London Waterloo. The A3 London to Portsmouth road is about three miles distant providing access through the Hindhead tunnel to Guildford, London, Heathrow, Gatwick, the M25, and south to the coast.
There is a fine selection of schools in the area including St Ives, St Edmunds, The Heights, Highfield, Brookham, Amesbury and the Royal School (both junior and senior).
Sporting facilities include golf at Liphook and West Surrey, racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, polo at Cowdray Park and sailing off the south coast at Chichester.
Haslemere town centre 1.9 miles, Haslemere mainline station 2.4 miles (London Waterloo 53 minutes), London 42 miles
Agents note: Two areas of Japanese knotweed have been found in the grounds. The treatment plan is in process and fully paid for; report is available on request.
