Generous living, double en-suites and large private garden near top-rated primary.
Large detached family house, c.2,000 sq ft
Myrtle Cottage is a spacious, well-proportioned detached home set in Durley village, offering roughly 2,000 sq ft of family-friendly accommodation across two storeys. The house combines a bespoke kitchen, generous lounge with ornate gas fireplace and a full-width conservatory, creating flexible day-to-day living and good entertaining flow. Two bedrooms benefit from en-suite bathrooms and built-in storage; a large study provides straightforward conversion potential into a fourth bedroom if required.
Outside, the property sits behind mature hedging with a very large paved driveway and integral single garage, giving substantial off-road parking and secure storage. The rear garden is private and secluded, framed by a living hedge and suitable for family use or informal entertaining.
Practical considerations include an EPC rating of C and mains gas central heating, though the double glazing was installed before 2002. Broadband speeds are limited (up to c.76 Mbps download, very slow upload), and the area records above-average crime levels. Council Tax Band E should also be factored into running costs.
Overall, this modern detached family house suits buyers seeking a substantial home in a peaceful rural village with strong local schools and good road connections to Southampton. It will particularly appeal to families wanting generous living space and parking, while buyers seeking ultra-fast broadband or lower council tax may wish to consider these trade-offs.
