This charming, well-proportioned, Grade II Listed house is understood to date back to the 16th Century. It is timber framed and constructed of brick elevations under a tiled roof.

Inherent features are present throughout the property and include the open fireplace in the superb drawing room, a good size cellar and a wealth of exposed beams. The house has plenty of natural light and although the house has been well maintained, it would benefit from modernisation.

The house is approached off the high street by double gates leading to a driveway with parking in front of the double garage. A brick wall surrounds the boundary and conceals the property from the road. The garden lies predominantly to the rear of the house and is mainly laid to lawn with herbaceous shrub and flower borders. There are a variety of specimen trees which also provide colour all the year round. There is a good greenhouse, shed and a wood store.

The Small House is positioned in the heart of the village of Droxford which is located within the South Downs National Park. Droxford has been voted the Best Small Village 2023 in Hampshire and the Ilse of Wight and was also runner up in the Best Open Spaces by the Hampshire Association of Local Councils. The village benefits from a junior school, a village pub, post office, doctors' surgery, garage and petrol station with a shop. More extensive facilities can be found in Bishops Waltham and the Cathedral City of Winchester, with railway services from both Winchester and Petersfield providing access to London Waterloo in approximately 1 hour.

The beautiful Meon Valley is well known for a range of outdoor pursuits including walking and riding, with a cricket club in the village of Droxford, golf at Swanmore Golf Centre and Corhampton Golf Club, and sailing on the Solent and the Hamble.

For those with families the local schools include Droxford Junior School, Swanmore Church of England Primary School, Ridgemead Junior School and Swanmore College at secondary level. There are also numerous independent schools which include Winchester College, The Pilgrims School, Twyford School, St Swithun's School for Girls, Wykeham House School, West Hill Park at Fareham, and King Edward VI School in Southampton, with a coach service from Swanmore Lane.
