Seller Insight
When we first came across Heathcroft, it was the location and setting that drew us in. Having lived in the area for years, we knew we didn t want to leave, and this house despite being in a poor state offered everything we dreamed of. The expansive 5.5 acre grounds were a rare find and promised a safe haven for our children to roam freely. The views, space, and potential won us over, and so began a long journey of transformation.

There s a special magic in waking up each morning to uninterrupted views that shift with the seasons. Heathcroft offers year round beauty from the landscaped gardens to the cosy corners indoors. Winters are for snuggling in the Snug with the log burner crackling, while the Drawing Room has seen many joyful family Christmases. The Atrium is a favourite spot to unwind and take in the scenery, and the kitchen has always been the beating heart of the home full of chatter, cooking, and connection, whether with our children or now, our grandchildren.

Over the years, we ve thoughtfully renovated the house from the ground up adding the Atrium and a galleried landing to improve flow and highlight the views over Rake Hanger and toward the South Downs. Modern upgrades like complete rewiring, complete upgrading of the hot and cold water system, a new heating system, and a four oven Aga in the kitchen have made it both comfortable and characterful. The addition of solar panels, a Tesla battery, a triple garage, and EV charger have brought us right into the future, making Heathcroft particularly economical to run.

Life here has always been well connected. With easy access to Liss, Liphook, and Petersfield, all daily needs are within reach, along with great schools both state and independent. For commuting, the direct train line from Portsmouth to London is indispensable. We re also lucky to be within the South Downs National Park, and with the Sussex Way running along the southern boundary of the property it provides ideal access for walking and cycling. The coast isn t far either, offering a refreshing change of pace with its beaches and sailing spots. Petersfield was named the best place to live in the Southeast by the Sunday Times in their 2025 Guide due to its family friendly atmosphere, excellent schools and strong community, highlighting its diverse range of sport and arts activities, and its scenic location.

The locality is blessed with an abundance of sport and leisure facilities from Champneys Forest Mere and Old Thorns Hotel Resort and Golf Club to the local recreation ground in Liss which is home to the local football teams and the tennis club.

The garden has been our sanctuary home to herbaceous borders, a bog garden, a soft fruit patch, and a large Koi pond with an OASIS filter, letterbox waterfall, and deck that s perfect for morning coffee. We ve hosted everything from weddings and retirement parties to charity garden open days, thanks to the generous outdoor spaces and ample parking.

Despite the rural feel, we re part of a warm, active community, especially through local groups in Liss and a neighbourhood WhatsApp group that brings everyone on the Ridge together. Whether you re after peace and privacy or vibrant community life, Heathcroft offers the space to shape your lifestyle as you see fit.
