I The Property
Brocas Farm is a stunning Grade II listed Queen Anne
house having Elizabethan origins with later additions in
the 20th Century, and a contemporary octagonal
extension added to the rear of the house in 2008. The
house offers light and well-appointed accommodation,
making it a most fabulous family home. The kitchen/
breakfast room is an excellent size and has a larder
and doors out to the garden. The central hall, with its
imposing staircase, provides access to the principal
reception rooms being the drawing room with its open
fire and doors out to the garden, a delightful panelled
morning room with corner fireplace, sitting room with
good cupboards and fireplace, and finally the dining
room, off which there are steps leading to the kitchen.
To the rear of the house is an excellent lobby/boot
room providing access to the new extension which has
a first floor study/library, designed to take full
advantage of its delightful views over the garden and
surrounding grounds. Below the library is a
comfortable guest bedroom with adjoining bathroom.
The master bedroom has an adjacent dressing room
and bathroom. There are three further bedrooms on
this floor, with two bathrooms. To the second floor are
three further bedrooms and a bathroom. Throughout
the house there are numerous original features
including panelled walls, doors, window shutters and
timber framing of the Elizabethan period.
I Location
Brocas Farm sits on the edge of the highly sought after
and popular village of Lower Froyle. The neighbouring
village of Bentley, 2 miles away, has a local shop and a
doctor's surgery as well as a mainline station to
London Waterloo. Within Lower Froyle, and only a
short walk, is a good local pub, The Anchor. The
nearby market towns of Alton and Farnham provide a
wider selection of shops and leisure facilities, including
Waitrose stores. There is easy road access to London
via the A31, A3 or the M3. In the area are a number of
excellent independent schools including Alton School,
Lord Wandsworth College, Edgeborough,
Frensham Heights, St Swithun's, The Pilgrims’ School,
Prince’s Mead, Winchester College and
Peter Symonds 6th Form College. The rolling
Hampshire countryside that surrounds the village
provides many miles of public footpaths and
bridleways, ideal for walking, cycling and horse riding.
I Outside
The garden is a stunning feature of the property and lies
principally to the south of the house. The numerous
mature and well kept stocked beds are enclosed by
yew hedging and areas of lawn. There are terraces
adjacent to the kitchen and drawing room and a mature
wisteria adorns to the south east elevation. Beyond the
formal garden is a productive vegetable patch with a
soft fruit cage and an aluminium greenhouse. A grass
path leads through to the swimming pool area, and an
arboretum with numerous ornamental trees and an
Astroturf tennis court. The property is approached via a
five bar gate which opens onto a gravel drive leading to
a courtyard beside the house, providing parking and
turning. Within the courtyard is a stunning timber frame
barn, part of which has been converted to an excellent
party barn with a W.C. and kitchen. The remainder of
the barn can be used for garaging or machinery
storage. Also forming part of the courtyard is a former
stable, currently used as a workshop, and an open
carport. The cottage has a private access via a parking
area approached from the village lane, next to which is
a garage. On the ground floor there is a reception room,
kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and a further bedroom to
the first floor with a box room adjacent. It also has a
small private garden.There is a paddock which has
separate access from the village lane.
