Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Havant, PO9 :

Stanford Lodge stands at the end of its own long gravelled driveway in a large private plot. This substantial Victorian villa retains a number of its original character features, such as an impressive moulded ornate ceiling in the dining room, fireplaces, picture rails and curved corner walls and a beautiful 43' long glass veranda along its western elevation. It is also hard to believe that the conservatory/sun room is a later addition. The current owners have created this in a true Victorian style so that it looks as though it has been there since the house was built. Stanford Lodge offers rooms of generous proportions, totalling over 3,200 sq ft, allowing ample space for a growing, or grown, family to enjoy their own freedom and privacy when desired. The accommodation could be used in any number of ways to suit specific lifestyle requirements. The ground floor provides five reception rooms, conservatory, two kitchens, bathroom and utility room. Currently some of these rooms are used as annexe accommodation, however have not been materially changed in any way which would stop them from being re-incorporated into the main living accommodation of the house. Upstairs, there are five bedrooms, the master being a generous 23'x15' in addition to a bathroom and separate w.c.



Denvilles is located in Havant near the charming harbour town of Emsworth. The property is close to a number of recreation grounds, tennis courts and Langstone Harbour water's edge is within a short walk. From the harbour it is possible to cycle or walk along the coastline on the 'Billy Trail' to Hayling Island. For sailing enthusiast, of which there are many on the south coast, there are two established sailing clubs in Emsworth and a good number of others to be found around Chichester Harbour. Whilst Emsworth offers a more relaxed retail experience with mostly privately owned shops, cafes, bars and restaurants, Havant provides a broader selection of retailers and recreational facilities. Gunwharf Quays shopping complex at Portsmouth and the historic Cathedral city of Chichester are easily reached along the A27. Commuters are well served by the mainline station at Havant to London Waterloo in about 1¼ hours and Southampton International Airport is only 23 miles west along the M27.



The current vendors have lived in the property for 25 years and say …… "This is a real family home. Our grandchildren are now enjoying the spaces and gardens that their parents grew up in. We have hosted numerous large events here, not only for our family but for the girl guides and church too. It's been a home to many over the years and we have been very happy living here."
