2 bedroom detached house

Full description

A spacious detached 1900’s home with two double bedrooms, large Sitting Room and Kitchen/Diner, two further rooms in the basement with fireplace, windows and external door. Includes off-road parking for two cars and rear gardens with outbuildings, set in a wonderful and convenient location. Full of character but now requiring modernisation and with a great opportunity to reconfigure.

Ground Floor:

The front door opens into the inner Hallway which extends to the Kitchen/Dining Room.  A traditional flight of carpeted stairs, with banister rail and spindles, leads to the first-floor landing.  Underneath the stairs is a large cupboard with shelving and window.

Sitting Room: a bright room with a large bay window to the front overlooking Lion Lane.  There is a traditional fireplace with tiled surround and a range of shelving to either side of the chimney breast. Plenty of space for sofas and armchairs and coffee table etc.  

Kitchen/Diner:  is a large L-shaped room with range of base and wall cupboards with space for an oven/hob, with the sink to one end.  There is plenty of space for a dining table and chairs.  The room is heated from a log burner.  A window allows natural light in and gives a view towards the rear garden.  Off the dining arear is an internal door that opens to an area of storage/shelving and stairs to the basement level.  From the Kitchen side, a door opens into a covered brick storage room with a further window and door to the garden.

Basement: stairs lead down past the external door to two large rooms with three windows and a fireplace to one room.  Both basement rooms are currently used for storage but offer much potential to convert to areas of living space.  The external doorway opens to one side of the house at ground level.

First Floor:

Master Bedroom: the generously sized Master Bedroom has a range of fitted floor to ceiling cupboards to one wall, which includes hanging space and shelving.  There is also a further cupboard to one end for more storage.  The Master has a large wide window for lots of natural light and overlooks the front to Lion Lane.

Bedroom 2: is a good-sized double with a window overlooking the rear garden and has plenty of space for a double bed and free-standing wardrobe and drawers etc.  There is a central boarded chimney breast with space either side for shelving and storage.

Bathroom:  comprises of a white suite, with bath (electric shower over), hand basin and WC.  There is a deep airing cupboard which houses the immersion heater.  The bathroom could easily be reconfigured to include a separate walk-in shower. There is also a window facing the rear garden.

The Loft is accessed from a hatch on the first-floor landing.

The house has some double glazing with secondary double glazing to some of the rooms.  The property has storage heaters to some rooms with a fireplace in the Sitting Room and log burner in the Kitchen/Diner.  The water is heated from an immersion heater.

Outside:

To the front is off road parking for two cars on the driveway with a low-level wall to one side.  A pathway leads along the side of the house to the rear garden and back door.  There are a set of steps that lead up to the front door.

Rear Gardens:

The porch off the kitchen has a few steps that lead down to the rear gardens where you will find an area of patio.  The garden is mainly laid to lawn with flower beds to one side with roses and mature shrubs with a selection of trees to the far end.  A pathway leads to the rear and to a gate that opens into a further area of secluded garden.   The garden could be opened up fully to create a wonderful family outdoor space.

Outbuildings: There is a brick-built store room with tiled roof and wooden door and another external door to a WC with window.

The property is located on popular Lion Lane, a few mins walk from the shops of Weyhill, which include many independent shops and an M&S Foodhall, Tesco Supermarket, Lion’s Den Coffee House, Dylan’s Milk Barn (ice cream parlour) and Little Locks Children's Hairdresser. Haslemere Town Centre is 1.4 miles away and is a lively market town, again with a good selection of independent boutiques, restaurants, coffee shops and pubs.  There are two leisure centres (one with a swimming pool).
