Drove Mead, Drove Lane, Alresford, SO24 9EX

A sizeable, detached bungalow set in a tranquil, semi-rural location on the southern edge of Alresford, with beautiful views and countryside walks from the doorstep.

The property sits on a wide plot and offers an opportunity for further extension, subject to planning permission being granted.

It is in need of modernisation throughout, but with an investment of time and money, it would be the perfect property for anyone who enjoys country living, whilst also wanting good access to the town centre.

Drove Lane is a quiet lane that leads north to Old Alresford and popular walking trails, which lead off in various directions.

The bungalow is approached from Drove Lane, with an in- and-out gravelled driveway and an outlook over the fields beyond. The front door opens to an enclosed porch and the entrance hall.

To the left and the right are two generously proportioned double bedrooms, with windows overlooking the driveway.

A door off the hall opens to the sitting and dining rooms, which have been combined into one large space.

To the side is another room, which could be used as a study or family room, and to the rear is the conservatory, with a lovely outlook over the garden.

The kitchen is at the far end of the hall and has a view of the garden. There is an adjoining utility/boot room with a door to the garden, and a bathroom and separate cloakroom.

A loft hatch in the hall allows access to the spacious loft via a bespoke loft ladder.

The main loft room measures 4.7m max x 4.3m max and has a window with a view of the neighbouring fields, and a door to further loft storage space.

Outside to the front, there is a good amount of driveway parking and two single garages that are attached to the property, offering the opportunity to provide further accommodation.

There is access to the rear garden from the right hand side of the property, with views over a low hedge to water meadows and countryside beyond.

The garden has a sunny, south-west facing aspect and is laid to lawn, with mature shrubs and hedging.
