4 bedroom detached house for sale

This substantial detached family home features a delightful, mature, and private garden extending to about 60 feet, offers ample parking, no forward chain, and an excellent opportunity to create a home tailored to the buyer’s own specifications. Offered at a price to allow for modernization, the property also provides outstanding scope to expand further (subject to consent).

This charming, bright and spacious chalet property has been owned by the same family since it was built in 1972. It was originally chosen because of its peaceful cul-de-sac position and its proximity to the Castleman Trail and Lions Hill Nature Reserve (both within a few hundred metres). It is also within 800 metres of Moors Valley Country Park and the Ringwood Forest, making it a perfect family home, or a comfortable home for those looking to downsize without compromising on space for guests.

The flexible accommodation includes two well-proportioned ground floor bedrooms, in addition to two further first floor bedrooms, a ground floor shower room, first floor bathroom, and a first-floor landing with additional storage areas (not shown in the floor plan).

The remainder of the ground floor comprises a large, welcoming reception hall, a light and airy sitting room, a double- glazed conservatory and an open- plan, fitted kitchen/dining room. The kitchen has been significantly extended, creating a spacious area approximately three times the size of the original kitchen layout, and further merged with the original dining room.

This impressive property further benefits from gas central heating, with a new boiler and unvented pressurised cylinder installed approximately four years ago, along with double glazing throughout. There is ample storage space within the house, complemented by a very large undeveloped loft area above the garage and entryway, which is not included in the stated floor area (similar properties have often converted this space to part of the main house).

The rear garden is accessible from both the conservatory and the kitchen/dining room, and is enclosed with a mix of fencing, mature trees, shrubs, and hedging. Extending to approximately 60 feet in length (with the overall plot approaching 0.17 acres), it features a generous lawn, a full width paved terrace, and a rockery providing a natural transition between the patio and the lawn. A large glass greenhouse, in a separate private patio/outdoor area to the side of the house, and a useful storage shed complete the back garden area.

To the front is a driveway providing parking that leads to the attached single garage. The remainder of the front is also laid to lawn with trees, shrubs and hedging, providing privacy and seclusion.
