Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in Rownhams, this detached four-bedroom house offers comfortable family living and a private southwest-facing garden. The layout includes a sitting room, dining room with sliding doors to the garden, a kitchen, study (part garage conversion) and a ground-floor WC — overall rooms are a practical size for everyday family use.
The property sits within The Mountbatten School catchment and close to several good primary schools, making it well suited to families. The garden is well screened by mature trees and shrubs, enjoys afternoon sun, and provides a secluded outdoor space for children and entertaining. Driveway parking for two cars leads to an integral garage with power and light.
The house requires some updating: the kitchen and bathrooms are dated, and the property is described as needing renovation in places. The part-converted garage/study and original fittings (parquet floors and dark wood kitchen units) give scope for a coherent refurbishment to increase value and adapt the layout to modern family needs.
Practical points: the home is freehold, double-glazed, gas central heated with radiator heating, and sits in a very low-crime, affluent suburb with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Council Tax Band E reflects higher running costs; buyers should allow a budget for updating and any desired reconfiguration.
