Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Alton, GU34 :
A highly versatile and individual two storey detached country residence laid out with the emphasis upon space and circulation in a much acclaimed village location with southerly facing 0.95 acre grounds backing onto fields.
Description
The impressive ground floor footprint affords four reception rooms, a gym/bedroom 4, family kitchen, a utility/cloakroom, second bathroom and a distinctive part vaulted and galleried reception hall entered via a loggia from the in and out driveway. The part vaulted hall and glass gallery lead to the three principal double bedrooms and the main 4 piece bathroom. Family use, entertaining and the option of informal annexe use spring to mind. Noteworthy characteristics include the oyster stone floors, glass gallery, the 18'5 x 16'10 master bedroom with its Juliet balcony, open fireplace, white sanitaryware, exposed pine floorboards upstairs and white panelled internal doors. In keeping with traditional village life, the kitchen has the focal point of a Rayburn whilst additional features include downlighting with dimmers as specified, and double glazing with most rooms incorporating fanlight top openers.

The southerly views over the rear grounds to rolling open Hampshire countryside is enjoyed by the three main reception rooms and two of the four double/twin bedrooms.
