Detached house for sale in Alexandra Road, Fordingbridge, Hampshire SP6

An attractive, traditional period 3-bedroom house with scope for cosmetic updating standing close to the town centre. No onward chain.

6, Alexandra Road is an attractive detached house believed to date from the late Victorian/early Edwardian period of traditional red brick elevation, well located close to the town centre in a mixed residential road of primarily similar aged properties. The house offers well-proportioned accommodation that exhibits a number of features typical of the age including generous ceiling heights, picture rails, exposed floorboards and fireplaces. The house has generally been well maintained but there remains scope for an incoming purchaser to cosmetically update certain aspects according to personal taste and ther emay be scope for further enlargement, subject to relevant planning permisison. Externally there is an enclosed rear garden and we understand there was historically an off-road parking bay at the foot of the garden accessed via a dropped kerb on adjoining Albion Road. No onward chain.

Alexandra Road is conveniently positioned for the Fordingbridge town amenities, which are within level walking distance and extend to a selection of local shops, a building society, post office, public houses, restaurants, churches of varying denomination, a medical centre and sports ground.
