House For Sale £500,000
DESCRIPTION
A detached house that has been largely extended to the rear over the years providing excellent accommodation offering scope for improvement, and providing an opportunity for the new owners to “put their own stamp” on the property. The house has a mature secluded garden and an attached garage with a workroom/utility to the rear – the garage is attached to the neighbouring property’s garage. In brief the accommodation comprises a reception hall with shower room, two large reception rooms (one with log burning stove) and five first floor bedrooms and a family bathroom.
LOCATION
The property is situated in a popular residential area in Chilbolton which has a Post Office/store, church, village hall and public house. A second public house ‘The Mayfly’ sits on the bank of the River Test within walking distance. There are many charming walks from the door to West down and Chilbolton Common – a designated Area of Special Scientific Interest and a renowned local beauty spot particularly noted for its rich flora and traversed by the River Test. West Down, also a short walk away, is ideal for dog walking. There is a reputable primary school in the neighbouring village of Wherwell, about 1½ miles away and Stockbridge 4 miles. Andover (4 miles) offers a comprehensive range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities, as well as a mainline railway station providing fast services to Waterloo. The cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury are about 15 and 25 minutes’ drive respectively, and the A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London and the West Country
