Hampshire is a county steeped in regal history and brimming with coastal charm. Tucked away in the South West of England, the region has a rich tapestry of heritage. It's the birthplace of cricket, Jane Austen, and known as the launching place of the D-Day invasion and the Titanic. As a county, Hampshire is vast and varied, spanning from the towns of Basingstoke and Petersfield to Southampton and the ancient city of Winchester.

The appeal of Hampshire’s picturesque landscapes and rolling chalk downs is strong: research by Knight Frank reveals that 36% of property buyers in the area last year came from London and the South East. Families, in particular, are attracted by Hampshire's abundance of Outstanding-rated schools, with 126 institutions offering top-tier education in the region.

On the south coast, Portsmouth proudly displays Hampshire's maritime heritage, where visitors can explore iconic vessels like HMS Victory and the historic Mary Rose. Hampshire’s waterfront locations, stretching across Highcliffe, Barton on Sea, and Milford on Sea, teem with activity, providing residents and visitors with an array of dining, shopping, and entertainment options. In the southwestern reaches, the New Forest National Park offers a serene escape amidst open heathlands and verdant woods.

With its rich history and contemporary appeal continuing to draw buyers to the region, here we explore some of the finest properties in Hampshire currently on the market.
