Liphook in Hampshire currently has an average house\nprice of around \u00a3580,000, which is over 20% less than popular Haslemere in nearby\nSurrey and a whopping 54% less than pricey Hampshire hotspot Soberton. In fact,\nit\u2019s still possible to find a one-bedroom flat for \u00a3120,000 and a two-bedroom\nmews house for \u00a3200,000 in one of Liphook\u2019s more recent housing developments,\nmaking the village a tempting proposition for local house hunters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore\nit\u2019s not entirely surprising that Liphook has been picked out by the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Telegraph\/status\/1384935294223405056\">national<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hampshirelive.news\/news\/hampshire-news\/telegraph-labels-stockbridge-liphook-it-5329954\">local<\/a> press as an \u201cit\u201d location for 2021 that is actually still affordable,\nalbeit by Home Counties standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fact\nthat technically Liphook is a large village is a major part of its appeal since\nquality of life is also what counts, and buyers with cash after a year\u2019s worth\nof lockdown are prepared to pay for quality. And Liphook \u2013 the former home of writer\non rural matters and author of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/books\/2008\/dec\/13\/lark-rise-candleford-flora-thompson\"><em>Lark\nRise to Candleford<\/em><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/programmes\/articles\/52VNKFmQ8LTky2VTb8c4LcQ\/the-life-of-flora\">Flora\nThompson<\/a> \u2013 is certainly on the money in this respect and retains much of its country\ncharm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although\nthe village <a href=\"https:\/\/homesea.co.uk\/on-home-ground-5-fascinating-facts-about-liphook-in-east-hampshire\/\">developed<\/a> on land\nabove the marshes near the River Wey as a refuge for tenants tired of paying\ntaxes to their local lords of the manor, it was coaching that put Liphook on\nthe map as a key stage on the route from London to Portsmouth in the\nseventeenth century. Magnificent coaching inns such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hungryhorse.co.uk\/pubs\/hampshire\/royal-anchor\/\">The\nRoyal Anchor<\/a> were built to meet the needs of the travelling\npublic, providing further opportunities for blacksmiths, farriers, and other\nessential tradesmen linked to coaching.&nbsp;&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inevitably,\nthe prospect of wealthy passengers on their way to the south coast drew the\nattention of highwaymen, one of whom is said to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hampshirelive.news\/whats-on\/haunted-hampshire-pub-visited-queen-5570247\">haunt<\/a> the\nRoyal Anchor, not to mention the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.liphookherald.com\/article.cfm?id=116597&amp;headline=Curious%20tale%20of%20folklore%20and%20smuggling...&amp;sectionIs=news&amp;searchyear=2016\">smugglers<\/a> who\nalso used the road. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/hampshire\/content\/articles\/2008\/12\/09\/london_road_feature.shtml\">Turnpiking<\/a> the roads alleviated the crime problem and increased the speed of the\njourney prior to the arrival of the railways in 1859, making the town even more\npopular with commuters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Transport links<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, Liphook\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.southwesternrailway.com\/travelling-with-us\/at-the-station\/liphook\">railway station<\/a> provides a vital link between the\nvillage, central <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetrainline.com\/train-times\/liphook-to-london\">London<\/a> and\nthe south coast with journeys to London Waterloo, Guildford and Portsmouth\n&amp; Southsea taking just over an hour, 27 and 45 minutes respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like the majority of coaching towns and villages,\nthe main road formerly ran through the centre of Liphook with an impressive\nsquare full of inns and other services developing around it. However, by the\nlate 20<sup>th<\/sup> century, the UK\u2019s historic towns and villages were no\nlonger able to take the increased levels of motor traffic. Like many villages Liphook\nwas bypassed in 1992, in this case by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roads.org.uk\/motorway\/a3\">A3<\/a> from London to Portsmouth. The outcome\nis that Liphook retains excellent transport links and also much of its rural\nambiance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Liphook\u2019s good rail and road links,\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.heathrow.com\/\">Heathrow\nInternational Airport<\/a> is only 39\nminutes away via the A3 and M25 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gatwickairport.com\/\">Gatwick\nAirport<\/a> is under an hour by car. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.southamptonairport.com\/\">Southampton\nAirport<\/a> offers a good\nchoice of domestic and international flights as well and is only 47 minutes\naway&nbsp;via the A3 and M27. There are no direct trains from Liphook to any of\nthe closest airports, but there are regular train services to London Paddington,\nClapham Junction and Havant, which provide onward changes for air travel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Schools<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a village (albeit a large one) the\nquality of education in and around Liphook is above average. Both state and\nprivate schools are consistently rated highly, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bohunt.hants.sch.uk\/\">Bohunt\nSchool<\/a>, which is rated \u2018outstanding\u2019\nby Ofsted and appears in the league table for the top fifty UK state secondary\nschools.
