Set in a quiet, sought-after lane in Ampfield, this red-brick five-bedroom home offers abundant period character and a generous plot with a double garage and off-street parking. The layout includes a separate dining room and a ground-floor shower room, giving flexible space for family life. Large windows and mature garden boundaries create a peaceful, private setting ideal for those seeking countryside living.
The house requires extensive modernisation throughout—cosmetic and likely system upgrades are needed to bring the property fully up to modern standards. Rooms are generally comfortable but on the smaller side with some low ceilings and characteristic ceiling angles; buyers should expect renovation work to reconfigure or improve head height, insulation, and services. Broadband speeds are very slow, which may matter for home working.
This freehold property of about 2,161 sq ft provides scope to reimagine the interior while retaining charming traditional features such as pitched roofs and gable ends. Its location in a low-crime, affluent rural hamlet and proximity to well-regarded primary schools make it particularly appealing to families seeking a quieter lifestyle with room to expand or update. Flood risk is minimal.
In short: a characterful family home on a large plot with clear potential, best suited to buyers prepared to undertake renovation for long-term value and comfortable rural living.
