Property description
A beautifully presented 4 bedroom family house in the popular Whitedown Lane area. Lovely large garden, driveway and garage.
Description
The property benefits from new carpets to most rooms, gas central heating, modern kitchen with granite worktops as well as good sized bedrooms.
Location
A green lies between the house and Whitedown Lane, which is towards the Western country outskirts of Alton. Adjoining Downsway leads to a small network on no-through roads also providing shortcut footpaths to the town centre. The Butts area of Alton is frequently requested for reasons of its proximity to schooling, The Butts - an historic green, Alton Sports Centre, walks in nearby Ackender Wood, and strategic road routes including the A339 to Basingstoke, the A31 Winchester-Guildford axis and the B3349 leading to the M3 Junction 5. The neighbourhood also has bus services, the French Horn Inn, Chawton Park Surgery, the Jubilee playing fields and local interest clubs such as indoor bowls, guides and scouts. Steeped in English Civil War and Jane Austen history, Alton town centre is within a short walk or drive with its varied range of shops, M&S and Sainsbury's stores, weekly street and farmers market events, and pubs and eateries. The town also has a station (Waterloo line), senior schools, Alton Convent and College, a Waitrose and retail park, library, cultural centres and two outlying golf courses.
