Property description
A deceptively spacious and individual detached bungalow offering No Onward Chain, constructed we believe in the 1930's and has been extended by the current owners with a generous rear garden measuring in excess of 100ft.
Description
To fully appreciate the size, an internal inspection is highly advised. The generous accommodation comprises entrance hallway, large dual aspect living room, refitted kitchen breakfast room with good size refitted utility room adjacent. There are four separate bedrooms with the master having a full range of fitted wardrobes and drawers. The bathroom and WC have been refitted with a modern white suite. The inner lobby leads to the Ante room. At the rear of the building is a fantastic double glazed conservatory enjoying views over the large rear garden. Further internal features include a modern gas central heating system with individual thermostatic controls to most radiators and replacement Upvc windows throughout. Outside, the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with various established shrub beds. At the bottom of the garden is a detached timber stable block with centre store/tack room. There is power to the stable and it would benefit from some maintenance. To the front is a shingle laid driveway providing plenty of off road parking.
Location
The property lies towards the eastern outskirts of Medstead, a traditional village with footpaths, bridleways and byways, riding establishments and Alton Abbey in the neighbourhood. Hussell Lane leads to the village centre with its Handy Store, Medstead Hardware/Post Office, the primary school, St Andrew's - an ancient church, the Castle of Comfort Inn, a green and village hall, and local interest societies connected with gardening, amateur dramatics, tennis and bowls. The village outskirts also have a mini-retail park and The Watercress doctors surgery. The High Street shops of Alton, an historic old market town, are within 4 miles providing stores such as Boots, Iceland, M&S and Sainsbury's. The town also has a station (Waterloo line), a Waitrose store, senior schools, Alton Convent, Alton FE College, a sports centre and fitness clubs. The area has several golf courses. Local landmarks include Jane Austen's Chawton, Gilbert White's Selborne and gliding at Lasham airfield.
