A family home designed by a local architect in the village of Bowerchalke is on the market for £825,000.

Verulam House is a traditional-style detached house set back from the village lane.

Designed by local architect, Mike Lyons, the house was built by the owners in 2009, constructed of locally quarried Green Sandstone, under a clay tiled roof.

Double gates lead onto a gravel driveway in front of the house, with lawn to one side and a vegetable garden to the other.

The terraced lawn also features a variety of shrubs and trees, including pink magnolia, white magnolia and fig. The garden boundary consists of mature beech hedging and mixed native hedge, such as hawthorn and hazel.
