Situation Ivy Cottage is situated in the hamlet of Wolverton, which lies mid‐way between the towns of Basingstoke and Newbury. The nearby thriving village of Kingsclere has a good number of shops, including a butchers, post office, as well as restaurants, public houses, doctor’s surgery and veterinary surgery. The area is highly sought after due to its uniquely unspoilt nature and delightful countryside and is well served by numerous bridleways and footpaths. There are more extensive facilities in Newbury and Basingstoke and local sporting facilities include golf at Sandford Springs, Kingsclere and horse racing at Newbury. The well known is within five miles and there are many other excellent independent schools in the area, including Elstree, St Gabriels and Downe House. Road and rail links are excellent from Basingstoke or Newbury and the M3 and M4 motorways are easily accessible, as is the A34, providing access to the north and south. Ivy Cottage Ivy Cottage is a very attractive period cottage, with more recent additions, which once formed part of the Duke of Wellington Estate. It is situated in a quiet setting off a small no‐through country lane, overlooking its own land, farmland and Sandford Springs golf course. Period features within the property include exposed timber framing from the original cottage, open fireplaces and vaulted ceilings. The accommodation is flexible and lends itself to further enlargement, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents. Outside there is a very attractive garden, comprising formal lawns, within which are well stocked herbaceous borders, numerous shrubs and trees and productive vegetable gardens. The outbuildings include a large store/workshop, garage and greenhouse. The paddocks adjoin the formal gardens and are enclosed by post and rail fencing. There is a separate access to the paddocks to the north of the cottage. The gardens and grounds enjoy a southerly aspect.
