Full Details for 2 Bedroom Terraced for sale in Alton, GU34 :
A charming and tastefully presented period town cottage, the middle of an individual terrace of 3, nestling in a well-regarded no-through road level and adjacent to the town centre.
Description
Believed to date from the late Victorian/Edwardian era, the property displays traditional red brick elevations under a main slate pitched roof with vernacular characteristics internally including higher ceilings to the first floor, several chimneys and fireplaces, exposed floorboards, tall skirting boards and recessed panelled internal doors. The modernisation programme since 2010 has included a new gas heating system with the majority of the radiators having individual thermostatic valves, oak floors to the reception rooms, a generous supply of power points, and an additional bonus space with the creation of the loft room with its own paddle staircase. There is also sash effect double glazing.
Location
Tucked away on the South side of the heart of Alton town centre, Grove Road is within anetwork of roads consisting of mainly older style housing of varying types and sizes. TheGeorgian influenced High Street has individual and multiple shops, a weekly open air market, a programme of events, a choice of restaurants, inns and bistros, a fitness studio and the adjacent supermarkets of Sainsbury's and M&S. The neighbourhood also has The Butts - an historic green and the venue of the annual Victorian cricket match, The Butts primary school, churches, the Watercress Line steam railway and an intriguing network of town footpaths. Steeped in the history of Jane Austen, the English Civil War, the hop industry and Sweet Fanny Adams, Alton also has a library, community centre, station (Waterloo minimum 67 minutes) and a Waitrose store, senior and the Convent schools, and Alton College. Beyond the sports centre and two golf courses on the outskirts are miles of rolling Hampshire countryside.
