Full Details for 3 Bedroom Terraced for sale in Alton, GU34 :
A character circa 1930 end terraced 2/3 bedroom cottage set directly opposite both the bowling green and Westbrooke Gardens adjacent to the town centre.
Description
Affording a light and airy open plan expanse of living accommodation, the property benefits from not only an extensive ground floor footprint but also 2 double bedrooms and a large bathroom upstairs. This delightful cottage, which is at the end of a terrace of 4 similar homes with natural brick elevations and a slate roof, enjoys a Westerly aspected rear garden and features high ceilings, an open fireplace, a versatile study/third bedroom, downstairs cloakroom and useful utility area. Comfort comes in the form of double glazing(unless stated otherwise below) and has a gas heating system with radiators served by a replacement boiler and remote controlled programmer.
Location
Abutting the well tended expanse of the central town park-like gardens, Westbrooke Road occupies a level setting off Lenten Street which leads to the Market Square, town centre and routes to the M3 and Basingstoke. A stroll across Westbrooke Gardens also leads to the High Street and town centre. Westbrooke Road and Rack Close Road are 'access only' roads consisting of mainly pre-war and Victorian properties of varying designs and sizes. Steeped in Civil War and Jane Austen history, Alton, an old market town in the Way Valley, has major and family shops, restaurants and inns, M&S, Waitrose and Sainsbury's stores, primary and senior schools, a library, museum and gallery, and private health clubs. Just beyond the town centre lies the station (Waterloo line), Alton College and Kings Pond with the RC Convent school, Alton leisure centre and 2 golf courses on the outskirts. The town has churches of several denominations and an interesting network of town footpaths also leading to the water meadows.
