These particulars are intended only as a guide and must not be relied upon as statements of fact. Your attention is drawn to the Important Notice on the last page of the brochure. Situation Arawai House occupies a prime, private position on Hill Brow situated within the South Downs National Park. The nearby village of Rake provides a public S house, an established garden centre and the highly regarded Church of Primary School. The villages of Liphook and Liss, which are both a short drive away, not only provide good shopping facilities for day-to-day needs, but also mainline train stations with services into London Waterloo and Portsmouth. The larger towns of Petersfield and Haslemere, provide a more comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities as well as two further mainline stations. Communications are excellent with the A3 M approximately three miles away at Liphook providing fast and direct road access to London, the M25, the international airports of Gatwick, Heathrow and Southampton as well as the south coast. Journey times on the A3 have been greatly improved since the opening of the Hindhead tunnel in summer 2011. The surrounding area has an excellent choice E of schools, including Highfield and Brookham schools at Liphook, St Edmund’s, The Royal Junior School and Amesbury at Hindhead, The Royal Senior School and St Ives in Haslemere, Churcher’s College at Liphook and Petersfield as well as Bedales at Steep. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and W provides many excellent opportunities for walking and riding, with an array of wonderful footpaths and bridleways within a very short drive. Arawai House Believed to date from the 1870s, Arawai House is a stunning example of a substantial Victorian family home. The property benefits from many period features one would expect from this era including generous ceiling heights, well- proportioned rooms and large windows, as well as a number of original fireplaces, wooden floors and doors. Being presented to the market for the first time in over 50 years, the property has been well looked after by the current owners, but at the same time offers the incoming purchaser a wonderful opportunity to put their own stamp on the property; refurbishing and extending subject to the usual consents. Highlights of the house include the beautiful formal drawing and dining rooms as well as the exceptional kitchen/breakfast room, which, with an Aga at its heart benefits from elevated views over the gardens to the rear.

Gardens and Grounds When the property was bought by the current owner’s family, the property was advertised in Country Life as benefitting from a ‘rough paddock’ to the rear. This land has been beautifully and thoughtfully nurtured over the years giving us the exceptional grounds we see today; benefitting from mature shrub borders, several distinct terraced lawns and some spectacular mature specimen trees all bounded by a beautiful old garden wall.
