Secluded within approximately 1.3 acres of land and set on possibly the largest plot within Chandler's Ford lies this idyllic detached residence. Being built in 1939 the home oozes character whilst maintaining fantastic function for modern day living.
The current homeowners have spent over 20 years at 'Byewood' and when asked describe the property they expressed it as a superb home for all the family to enjoy having made many happy memories.
The sweeping in and out driveway guides you from desirable Hocombe Road and welcomes you to this stunning residence. You will immediately notice the charm this property has to offer along with a wealth of versatile space. It is a truly exquisite example of a property for the area and must be seen to be appreciated.
A welcoming entrance hallway greets you on arrival and features an elegant staircase rises up to the first floor landing. The ground floor accommodation has a lovely flow; a door way leads from the entrance hallway to the kitchen dining room which truly is a splendid feature of the house. This fabulous family space enjoys a rustic, country feel with a range of bespoke wooden fitted kitchen units throughout, granite work surfaces and a stunning AGA.. There is room for a good size table in the dining area perfect for Sunday lunch or hosting at Christmas. The utility/ boot room is just one of the rooms found from the kitchen a must for modern living along with a snug for the children and also the contemporary gym/ pool room with walk in shower and external access onto the patio.
The living room and sitting room areas overlook the substantial rear garden with the sitting room enjoying a beautiful open fire. These fabulous rooms enjoy a light and airy feel with a large bay window to the side of the formal reception room allowing a great level of light into the space.
All six bedrooms are on the first floor. The magnificent principal bedroom has a well-appointed four piece en-suite bathroom and offers delightful views over the rear garden. The guest bedroom further benefits from an en-suite bathroom with art-deco style tiling and freestanding bath. The remaining bedrooms are wonderful for children, guests or even as a home office for those looking to work from home and are serviced by the recently refitted shower room with Italian style tiling and rain shower.
The property sits on arguably one of the most generous plots within Chandler's Ford, approximately 1.3 acres which is predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by a panel fence with a border of mature shrubs and trees. Across the rear of the house there is a beautiful patio and entertaining space which overlooks a delightful swimming pool with an automatic safety cover, pond and the garden beyond. There is also wonderful private woodland space along with outbuildings, pool house and garaging which could be easily converted into an annexe. The vendor further has the possibility of offering the property with no forward chain.
Chandler’s Ford is a popular Hampshire town with a variety of shops, restaurants, traditional inns and with Chilworth golf course also within easy reach.
Schooling is typically outstanding. The local catchment schools are Chandler's Ford Infant, Merdon Junior and the sought after Thornden Secondary school. Independent schools include Sherbourne House, The Pilgrims’ School, Princes Mead, Twyford School, St Swithun’s School and Winchester College. Coast and country lifestyle pursuits are all within striking distance as the city is well placed for the South Downs National Park and The New Forest.
It is approximately a 15 minute drive to Winchester and a 17 minute drive to Southampton, both cities have an extensive range of facilities.
Communications are excellent with the M3 and M27 nearby and the railway station has links to Winchester and Southampton; London Waterloo is 57 minutes from Winchester and 65 minutes from Southampton Parkway.
