Full Details for 3 Bedroom Detached for sale in Alton, GU34 :
Commanding an uninterrupted South Westerly aspect over adjoining open countryside, a barn style semi-detached house presenting a light and airy contemporary atmosphere in an unique village setting within the South Downs National Park.
Description
The property is one of an individual pair created by a conversion in 2009 within an exclusive scheme of 5 homes, the other 3 being newly built to an equally striking design. The exceptional open aspect over neighbouring rolling countryside to the rear is enjoyed by the principal bedroom with its Juliet balcony, and all the living space on the ground floor, the reception room and breakfasting kitchen being open plan. Noteworthy design features range from the oak veneered internal doors with chrome finished handles to the Shaker style kitchen with its integrated appliances. There are smooth finished ceilings, right angle cut architraves and deep skirting boards, white sanitaryware and a gas heating system with individually thermostatically controlled radiators. The security alarm incorporates the garage which has an integral staircase and useful attic storage area. For convenience, there is a double width car parking bay directly at the front. The Vendor informs us there is the balance of a 10 year Zurich warranty.
Location
Old Sidings is located away from roads and is approached by a long grass verged tarmacadam style driveway from Brightstone Lane and has historic connections with the long closed Meon Valley railway. The immediate village surroundings provide country walks, bridleways and byways, the Golden Pheasant Inn and access via the A32 to Alton and further towns to the North and the Meon Valley and coast to the South. Upper Farringdon includes a fine array of period and individual properties, the parish church and the Rose & Crown Inn among its attributes. Jane Austen's much admired village of Chawton has a primary school, specialist library and cricket club. Within 3.5 miles drive is Alton's High Street. This old market town has individual and national retailers including Sainsbury's, Waitrose, M&S, Boots, Iceland, Aldi and Wickes, a commuter service to London Waterloo (minimum journey time 67 minutes), senior and Alton Convent schools, a further education college, sports centre, 2 outlying golf courses, a programme of open air events and an intriguing Saxon, civil war and hop growing history. Brightstone Lane leads to Four Marks golf course, near one of the highest points in Hampshire.
