Full Details for 3 Bedroom Detached for sale in Alton, GU34 :

CHAIN-FREE SALEA character 3 double bedroom terraced cottage with on-site parking occupying a level setting in a favoured road adjacent to the town centre - High Street within 0.2 mile.

Description
Believed to date from circa 1901 in a terrace of four homes called Hazelhurst, the property retains characteristics reminiscent of the Victorian/Edwardian era with its double height bay fronted design, higher downstairs ceilings, open fireplace and slate roof. Having the advantage of both a proper hall and galleried landing, the house also has reclaimed stripped and waxed recessed panelled pine doors to the ground floor. There are uPVC double glazed windows unless otherwise stated below whilst heating is via a gas system with radiators. This individual terrace sits proudly on the corner of Ackender Road and Kingsland Road, both 'access only' roads yet borders the South West corner of the town centre.

Location
Ackender Road lies immediately to the South Westerly side of Alton's historic town centre, the High Street being within 0.2 mile, and consists of mainly Victorian and Edwardian properties of varying designs, sizes and appearances. The neighbourhood has a network of footpaths, the water meadows, All Saints Church, Westbrooke Gardens and access to major routes including the M3 via the B3349 Odiham Road. Maintaining its historic connections with the English Civil War, Jane Austen and hop cultivation, Alton has High Street shops and stores such as M&S, Sainsbury's, Boots and Iceland, a station (London Waterloo line), Waitrose and Aldi stores, and weekly and specialist open air market events. Further churches, cultural facilities (The Curtis Museum and Allen Gallery), primary and senior schools, Alton Convent, Alton College, a library, fitness clubs, a sports centre and two golf courses on the outskirts are some other facets of the town.
