Location:The property is situated towards the end of The Hundred which is the main thoroughfare through the centre of Romsey, a historic market town which has as its centrepiece a famous Norman Abbey and which is well served by an array of superstores and local boutique shops and retailers to suit all tastes. Romsey also has bus and rail stations providing direct links to the neighbouring cities of Salisbury, Winchester and Southampton and is also well-placed for access onto the M27/M3 motorway network for London and the South Coast.
Accommodation:
Steps lead up to the ornate pillared front door which opens into the impressive entrance hall, from which is access to all ground floor rooms and stairs to the upper floors. A door conceals the access to a large basement area which is perfect for storage and use as a workshop, and also has an area used as a boiler room. The kitchen/breakfast room has been stylishly refitted in recent years into a large and bright room at the front of the property, equipped with contemporary yet sympathetic fittings in keeping with the property's age and character which includes an ornate fireplace. A door opens into the adjoining dining room which also has a feature fireplace and cupboards either side, beautiful stripped flooring, and French doors to the courtyard garden. The snug is a cosy sitting room with wood burner and ideal for use as a bedroom as it adjoins a beautifully appointed shower room making it ideal for use by dependant relatives or an occasional guest suite.
The split level first floor landing has stairs to the second floor and provides access to a large first floor sitting room with exposed brick fireplace and inset wood burner. Also on this level are two double bedrooms and another beautifully appointed shower room fitted with period style sanitaryware. On the top floor are two additional double bedrooms.
Outside there is a pleasant and very private courtyard garden with well-stocked raised beds creating a continental feel to a space which, connecting to the dining room and rear sitting room, is perfect for al-fresco dining or a quiet place to sit and relax. Resident and visitor parking permits are available for a nominal sum from Hampshire County Council, and the sale also includes a garage situated a few minutes' walk away along The Hundred for secure parking and/or additional storage.
