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

CHAIN-FREE SALE. A mature 3 double bedroom semi-detached house needing modernisation in a good sized corner setting with a South Westerly facing rear garden and detached garage within a much requested area.

Description
Built in about 1962 and slightly extended before 1985, the property is being sold for the first time in some 30 years. Notable for its size, aspect and broad verged location, the accommodation is well arranged with all the rooms centred on the reception hall or landing apart from the lean-to and porch. This presents a great opportunity for a buyer to improve the existing house with capital appreciation. Useful features include a Rayburn gas cooker, a gas heating system with radiators and a roving didital thermostat, majority smooth ceilings, plastic finished facias and barge boards, and double glazing (unless stated otherwise in the brochure) with the majority of windows incorporating fanlights. The property is set away from Whitedown Lane within an inner corner position in a well respected network of no through roads.

Location
Bolle Road, a no through road, consists of mainly detached and semi-detached homes of a similar age also with a driveway of newer executive detached houses and a small close of more recently built bungalows. Occupying a level setting with The Butts Primary School in the vicinity, this Western side of Alton is frequently requested for reasons of not only the schooling but also The Butts - an historic green, Alton Sports Centre, walks in nearby Ackender Wood, and its strategic access to road routes including the A339 for Basingstoke and the B3349 for the M3 junction 5. There is also a network of interesting town footpaths enabling a shortcut to the town centre, which is otherwise within a 0.9 mile drive. The neighbourhood also has bus services, the French Horn Inn, Chawton Park Surgery, and local interest clubs such as indoor bowls, guides and scouts. Steeped in English Civil War and Jane Austen history, Alton has a varied range of shops, stores such as Waitrose, Sainsbury's and M&S, open air market events, a station (Waterloo line), senior schools, Alton Convent, Alton College, a library, museum and gallery, fitness clubs and two golf courses on the outskirts.
