Full Description
- Property Overview: The Arcadia Safari brings the spirit of an African safari retreat to the Hampshire countryside, not through imitation, but through the qualities that make those spaces so compelling: shelter, warmth, natural materials and an effortless connection with the landscape. Its distinctive roofline extends out over a deep covered veranda, creating a generous outdoor room from which to take in the surrounding countryside. Substantial timber supports, dark external cladding and expansive glazing give the architecture a strong sense of character, while allowing it to sit naturally within the open setting of Hampshire Hills. This relationship between inside and outside is central to the design. Large glazed openings frame the landscape from the main living areas, while the covered deck encourages life to move outdoors - from morning coffee and slow lunches to evenings spent watching the light change across the countryside. Inside, the atmosphere is warm and tactile. Exposed timber elements, natural finishes and a restrained material palette create a relaxed sense of escape, complemented by an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space designed around spending time together. Available in one, two and three-bedroom configurations, ranging from 55m² (592 sq ft) to 92m² (990 sq ft), each home is thoughtfully designed to maximise space and comfort. The largest three-bedroom layout includes a principal en-suite bedroom, family bathroom, open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, and two deck areas. The Arcadia Safari can suit anything from a private retreat for two to weekends and longer stays shared with family and friends. The design comes from Shack, an architecture-led company creating distinctive properties for homes, country estates and resorts. Shack is founded on the belief that exceptional architectural thinking need not be confined to one-off commissions, but can inform a considered collection of homes that combine design quality, thoughtful construction and a closer relationship with the natural world. That philosophy is evident throughout the Arcadia Safari. The architecture has presence, but it is the experience of living in it that takes priority: generous spaces, natural light, tactile materials and places to sit, gather and look out across the landscape. Owners can also personalise aspects of the final specification, creating a holiday home shaped around how they want to spend their time and the atmosphere they want to create. At Hampshire Hills, where the landscape, quiet and changing seasons are at the heart of the experience, the Arcadia Safari offers a retreat with a distinct sense of adventure, somewhere to slow down, reconnect and feel a little further away from everyday life. Note: Floor plans and elevations illustrative, with final orientation, finishes and features subject to consultation and contracted client approval.
