Full Details for 2 Bedroom Terraced for sale in Alton, GU34 :
An immaculately presented town cottage of character with parking and a South Westerly 79\‘ x 18\‘ garden tucked away in a charming no-through road equidistant to the historic town centre and station (Waterloo minimum journey time 67 minutes).
Description
Offering 2 bedrooms, an upstairs bathroom complete with a bath and large separate shower, an impressive kitchen/dining room and a charming sitting room with a stove, the cottage has much charm and comfort and is complemented by a utility area and cloakroom. Within a terrace of 4 cottages believed to date from circa 1930, the property displays reclaimed stripped pine internal doors with \‘borrowed lights\‘, several delightful fireplaces, white sanitaryware and smooth finished ceilings with higher ceilings to the first floor. The gas heating system has a modern \‘A\‘ rated boiler and new thermostatically controlled radiators. The cottage also has a water softener installed and uPVC double glazing.
Location
Kingsmead is a unique unadopted, yet hard surfaced residential road consisting of an eclectic mix of mainly terraced cottages believed to date from the early part of the 20th Century also with paths connecting with a network of useful town walks leading to King\‘s Pond and Alton Station. The road lies to the Easterly side of the town centre, which affords High Street shops, stores such as M&S and Sainsbury\‘s, restaurants, hotels and inns, a library, museum and gallery, a private fitness club, and weekly and specialist open air market events. Steeped in the history of Jane Austen, Hampshire brewing and the English Civil War, Alton also has primary schools, two senior state schools, Alton Convent, Alton FE College, a sports centre and on the outskirts, 2 golf courses. The unspoilt countryside of the North Downs and the South Downs National Park encompass the Wey Valley.
