CALLING ALL MUSIC PRODUCERS ! This property has its own Music Studio which could also be converted into a salon or seperate living quarters. Garden is perfect for Al Fresco dining and entertaining, with its stunning southerly sea and city views. Must be viewed to be appreciated!

Situated on the upper hills of Drayton, not far from Ports Down Hill which is famous for its magnificent views over Portsmouth and beyond, makes this large Detached, Three Bedroom, split level property, one of the most desirable in the area.

* Converted Double Garage - Currently Used As A Music Studio - Ideal As A Home Office, Annexe, Salon etc

* 100ft Three Tier, Landscaped Garden With Footings For Additional Accommodation / Swimming Pool ( Subject To Planning )

* Large Detached Home Situated On A Generous Plot ( 179 sq m floor area on a 235 ft plot )

* Superb Entertainment Terrace With Bar, Electrical Points And Outstanding Southerly Views

The Property - Impressive as soon as you arrive, you will be greeted by a large block paved driveway which will comfortably provide parking for several vehicles, and a double garage. Planning was granted in January 2022 to convert the garage into and is currently being used as a music studio, accessible via the side door.
This would also make a fantastic number of alternative uses if required, for example an office space, salon or additional accommodation, with the outbuilding opposite having been converted into a W.C and kitchen area.

The entrance to the property provides you with secure side and front access which leads you to a surprisingly cosy for its size, impressive lounge ( 17ft x 17 ft ), with access to a huge terrace area ( 28ft x 17ft ) which is currently branded with the owners music label logo, as the stunning southernly views make for a fantastic backdrop for any photo!
There is also a large W.C/cloakroom and additional side access to the property, for all those muddy coats and shoes from walks around the beautiful surrounding countryside

Moving through to the rest of the property you will find a good size three piece family bathroom, huge kitchen/diner and utility area. What we really love about this 1970's architect-designed house is how many internal feature windows there are, that provide views into the lounge from the kitchen/ diner and out to those southernly views, and also up to and down from the snug, it really makes the place feel bright and open whilst also providing you with an eye on the kids for example.
The Kitchen / Diner is a fantastic entertaining space with a breakfast bar and plenty of cupboard space for any keen chefs and bakers. The utility area is much like everything in this property, a great size and has everything and more that you'd expect and need, which also provides access out to the garden...

The garden is beautiful and has had a complete makeover, with thousands spent by its existing owner to include footings that have already been laid, which with planning can provide an additional living space or the option of a swimming pool. The top level has been converted into a wonderful entertaining space, with a brick built 'bar/dj' area, electrical points and built in lights perfect for Al Fresco Entertaining. They have also installed a rear gate at the top for secure rear access, potentially making this a fantastic private entrance to the proposed additional living space ( subject to planning ) and perfect additional income / Air B&B for the keen walker - please call to request further information regarding this. Stunning southerly views can also be seen from all levels of this beautiful garden.

Upstairs, there are 3 good size bedrooms and a snug. The snug, full of character, is a lovely extra space, with panaromic views of the garden, and internal window that looks down into the dining area. The third bedroom is a quirky layout and would be loved as a sleeping space by young children and adults alike as it is currently used. The second and master bedroom are both great sizes with stunning southernly views to be appreciated from, morning and night, with the master providing built in wardrobe space and a delightful balcony area to further enjoy the views from.

The property benefits from new carpets and paint throughout, with 16 Solar Panels providing an income of around £2,500 (2020/2021).

We would be delighted to show you exactly why we love this property in person, viewings can be booked online 24/7 by 'requesting details' ( ( ... )), 'email agent' ( ( ... ) ) or 'request viewing' ( On the market) or by calling the office.
