THE Old School House in the rural hamlet of Ashe is appealing to local buyers in the Basingstoke area as it markets through agents Knight Frank with a price guide of £295,000.

The Victorian building dates back to 1873 and the accommodation features picture rails, open fireplaces and wooden doors.

The modernised semi-detached home (pictured above) has a sitting room, with a period-style fireplace, a separate dining room and a spacious kitchen-breakfast room.

The family bathroom is on the ground floor and upstairs the accommodation offers three bedrooms and an en suite shower room.

Knight Frank says: "This period cottage has much charm and atmosphere and well-appointed accommodation."

In the garden there is a paved terrace edged by cottage garden plants and enclosed by a brick wall.

The hamlet of Ashe is surrounded by open countryside and is renowned for its pretty church and for being the source of the famous River Test.
