Property description

Ripe for modernisation or development, an older style individual detached bungalow set back 94 feet on a 0.33 acre garden plot backing and opposite fields.

Description
Dating from 1955, the property is in need of substantial improvement and stands within large gardens with potential to create a true haven. Characteristics include its gable and bay fronted appearance with a twin aspect attic, a fireplace, picture rails, and quarry tiled windowsills. The rear has a South Easterly aspect over its own unkempt gardens, beyond which is a field. The sitting room and second bedroom at the front enjoy gently elevated views over a field opposite to Bowers Grove Wood.

Location
Proudly standing back in its own gardens, Glendown lies between Ropley Dean and North Street, Ropley being towards the north westerly country outskirts of the Parish of Ropley village. The immediate surroundings include mainly detached properties of varying ages, sizes and types on the same side of the A31. In the best traditions, Ropley has a well preserved village centre which incorporates a primary school, shop and post office, Church of St Peter, unique coffee/meeting room, village hall and sports field, and an ecclectic mix of sports and interest clubs and a programme of events. Footpaths and bridleways traverse the surrounding countryside with the serene valley of the River Itchen to the west. The major centres of Alton, Petersfield and Winchester have High Street shops, state and private schools, colleges, commuter trains to London Waterloo and golf courses, whilst Alresford, 3 miles away, has a landmark Broad Street, useful shops, Perins Academy senior school and annual agricultural shows and watercress festivals in September and May respectively.
