Set on a generous plot in a quiet Romsey lane, this link‑detached five-bedroom bungalow blends period character with contemporary touches such as solar panels. The single‑storey layout is spacious and versatile, with an L-shaped plan that creates distinct living and bedroom zones — ideal for families seeking ground‑floor convenience or buyers wanting annexe potential.
Externally the property delivers strong practical value: a large gravel drive provides ample parking and leads to a double garage, while the landscaped gardens offer private outdoor space for children and pets. Internally the rooms are well‑proportioned with natural light from large windows; several reception rooms give scope for flexible use as home offices, playrooms or formal living spaces.
Buyers should note the property’s construction era (1950s–1960s) and that heating is oil‑fired with a boiler and radiators, which may be a consideration for running costs or future fuel changes. While the bungalow benefits from double glazing and solar panels, parts of the house may need updating or cosmetic refurbishment to suit modern tastes.
Overall this is a rare single‑storey home in an affluent, low‑crime area with excellent connectivity and local schools nearby. It will suit families wanting spacious, adaptable accommodation or those seeking a property with annexe conversion potential and good parking, provided they are comfortable with some improvement works and the existing oil heating system.
