Property description
PROPERTY SUMMARY Some properties are over rated with grand descriptions, however, No.40 Queens Road deserves the grand description and is certainly not over rated. It is a home with flexible accommodation which would suit the growing family or those looking to house an elderly relative or have a second family unit living with them. The interesting fact is that the whole of the accommodation which is spread over one floor, provides over 2,647 sq ft of living space, with the primary bungalow having a large drawing room opening on to a sun lounge, an extensive open plan kitchen/dining room with an opening leading to a family area, a bathroom, two bedrooms, the master having an en-suite, entrance porch and hallway. From this area a door leads you to the annexe wing which provides three further bedrooms, a shower room, and newly fitted bathroom as well as having a good size living room. Access to this area is either via the garage with an internal pedestrian door or through its own front door. Linking to the garage is a separate utility room. The gardens wrap around the property and rather unusually the house can be accessed from either side of the fork in the road, bearing left you arrive at the main bungalow and bearing right you arrive at the annexe. There is a raised patio area, car parking, access to the garage a terraced rear garden with feature planted areas and a summer house. Offered with double glazing to most rooms, electric storage heating, floor coverings throughout and being located in one of Waterlooville's most popular residential locations, yet within easy access of local shopping amenities, bus routes, recreation grounds and schools, early internal viewing of this unique home is strongly recommended in order to appreciate both the accommodation and location on offer.
