Accommodation:
The property is approached via a front garden, spacious driveway and pathway leading to the entrance, where the accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall providing access to the principal living accommodation. The sitting room is positioned at the front of the house and provides a good-sized reception space, with a window overlooking the front garden. Whilst the property would now benefit from some updating, this is a well-proportioned room offering an excellent starting point for creating a comfortable and contemporary main reception space. To the rear of the house is the kitchen and dining area, extending across the width of the property and offering considerable scope for reconfiguration and modernisation. This in turn opens into a neat conservatory, creating a useful additional reception space with views and access towards the rear garden. The existing arrangement could be transformed to create a generous kitchen/dining space, providing a sociable heart to the home and an excellent connection between the indoor and outdoor living areas.
From the conservatory, there is access to the rear garden, further enhancing the connection between the house and outside space. The existing layout provides a good foundation for a purchaser to consider how best to modernise and personalise the ground floor to suit modern family life. A useful downstairs cloakroom/WC and access to the integral garage further add to the practicality of this level.
To the first floor, the landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms, providing excellent flexibility for family living, guests or home working. The principal bedrooms benefit from useful built-in storage, whilst the third bedroom offers versatility as a child's bedroom, study or dressing room. The family bathroom completes the first floor.
Outside:
The property enjoys gardens to both the front and rear, with a spacious driveway providing off-road parking and access to the integral garage. The rear garden offers a good degree of privacy and provides a blank canvas for landscaping, outdoor entertaining and family enjoyment.
Whilst the property would benefit from updating throughout, it presents an exciting opportunity for a purchaser looking for a home where they can put their own stamp on every aspect. The underlying accommodation is well proportioned and presented in a neat and tidy condition, with three good bedrooms, generous reception space, garage and parking, together with a pleasant established position within this popular Romsey road. For those looking to undertake a programme of modernisation, this property offers considerable potential to create a stylish and highly individual home in a well-established residential setting.
