Set within sweeping, mature grounds, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers spacious family living with strong privacy and countryside character. The property combines traditional brick architecture with generous reception rooms, a well-equipped kitchen/breakfast area, separate study and a double garage — all arranged over a comfortable multi-storey layout. Double glazing (installed post-2002) and gas central heating provide practical modern comforts.
The gardens are a standout feature: very large lawns, woodland borders and a substantial patio create excellent outdoor space for children, pets and entertaining. Off-street parking is plentiful on a gated driveway, and the double garage adds storage and workshop potential. There is loft space that, subject to planning consent, could be converted to increase accommodation.
Practical considerations are stated plainly. The house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and, while well maintained, may benefit from sympathetic updating in parts to suit contemporary tastes. A Tree Preservation Order affects some grounds-related works and any loft conversion would require planning approval. Council tax is described as quite expensive — an important running cost for purchasers to factor in.
Located in comfortable, affluent Chandler’s Ford, the home sits close to good state and independent schools, fast broadband and excellent transport links to Winchester and Southampton. For families seeking space, privacy and scope to adapt a rare plot, this is a compelling opportunity — viewings recommended to appreciate the scale and setting.
