Description
Stanhope House
This attractive period property, believed to have been originally built in around 1832 has since been subject to extensive and sympathetic modernisation and extension in recent years. The particularly fine drawing room has an array of original features including large decorative windows from which the sea views are enjoyed. The modern kitchen/dining room and a garden room both open to the south facing courtyard. A versatile extension to the rear can provide either an additional bedroom suite or a further reception room whilst there are 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on the upper floors.

Stanhope House occupies an elevated position set back about 100 metres from Queens Road in a quiet position yet with wonderful views across the Solent to the Hampshire Coast. Stanhope Drive is a no-through road and the seafront is within 135 metres, from which the town centre can easily be accessed by a level walk with its range of shops, restaurants and high speed Red Jet ferry service to Southampton.
