5 bed detached house for sale

Ackender Road, Alton GU34

An attractive detached family home occupying a highly convenient position close to the town centre, public gardens and just 0.9 of a mile from the mainline station. Set within mature grounds of approximately 0.19 acres, the property offers light-filled, well-proportioned accommodation with high ceilings and large windows enhancing the sense of space throughout.

Arranged around an inviting reception hall, the versatile layout is ideally suited to modern family living. The elegant sitting room provides a superb space for relaxing and entertaining, centred around a fireplace and opening into the family room. Overlooking the rear garden, this flexible space could also serve as a playroom, second reception room or home office. The dining room is ideal for both family occasions and formal entertaining and connects naturally to the kitchen/breakfast room. Fitted with a range of cabinets, an oven and electric hob, the kitchen benefits from double doors opening out to the garden, creating a very pleasant connection between indoor and outdoor living. The gardens and grounds offer plenty of space for children to play, summer entertaining and simply enjoying time outdoors with family and friends. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

The first floor provides five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with an en suite shower room. The house is well presented throughout and benefits from double glazing and gas-fired central heating. There is also excellent potential to further enlarge the accommodation through conversion of the loft space, subject to the necessary planning and building regulation consents.

Outside

The house stands within a generous and attractive landscaped garden. The grounds provide a beautiful setting and are far larger than initially expected with areas of lawn, well stocked flower and shrub borders and a variety of young and mature trees including a magnolia. A paved terrace adjoins the family room and kitchen/breakfast room and provides an ideal outside entertaining area. An area of raised decking provides a further outdoor space for relaxation and enjoying the garden. A timber shed with a work bench is also set within the rear garden. A private driveway provides ample parking to the front and access to the oak framed car barn.
