Take a look at the video of this beautiful family home.

Built around 1907, this is the kind of home that immediately reminds you why period houses are so loved: Generous rooms, high ceilings, handsome double-fronted bay windows, working fireplaces and a sense of space that modern homes so often struggle to recreate. Set in one of the finest roads in the sought-after Pondtail neighbourhood of Fleet, it has been lovingly maintained and combines Edwardian charm with the practical ease of contemporary family life.

From the welcoming entrance hallway, two beautifully lit reception rooms open to either side, each with large bay windows and a fireplace including one wood burner and a gas fire. These are proper sitting and dining rooms: Elegant, characterful and full of natural light.

At the heart of the home is a superb kitchen-family room, warm, sociable and beautifully connected to the private, south-facing garden through trifold doors. With underfloor heating and room for a large table, it is the natural gathering place of the house: Somewhere for homework, coffee, weekend lunches and everyday family life to unfold with ease. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room. Three further double bedrooms and a fifth room which is ideal as a nursery or home office. They are well served by a well-appointed family bathroom with both a bath and separate shower.

The vast attic above offers significant further potential, whether as a studio, bedroom suite or home workspace, subject to the usual consents. The property also benefits from solar panels that actively reduce energy bills, double glazing throughout and good insulation - making it as efficient as it is characterful.

The south facing garden is very private due to the mature trees and as well as the lawn and well stocked borders, there is a patio which runs across most of the rear of the house as well as a separate patio to the rear of the garden. There is also a garden shed. The front and rear driveway provides parking for 3 cars.

The Location Pondtail is one of Fleet's most popular addresses, and it's easy to see why. Fleet Pond, Hampshire's largest freshwater lake, is a three-minute walk away. The High Street's shops and cafés are five minutes on foot, and Fleet mainline station, with direct services to London Waterloo in around 40 minutes, is just seven minutes away. The area has a high reputation for the quality of the schools whether primary, secondary, state or private schools it is one of the further appeals of Fleet as the place for a family to put down their roots
