within the parish of Shalden village, the property lies on the
country fringes in an area of mainly detached individual homes in
large gardens and is strategically placed for access to not only

5, Basingstoke, Reading and the Thames Valley. Alton includes
varied shops with Waitrose, Sainsbury's, M & S and Boots stores, a
