About
Offered to the market for the first time since it was built, this three double bedroom detached home presents an exceptional opportunity to create a substantial family property in one of Lightwater’s most desirable residential locations.
No onward chain. Occupying a generous plot and set well back from the road, the property offers tremendous scope for extension and reconfiguration, subject to the usual planning consents.
The existing accommodation already provides well-balanced living space, including a spacious 21ft reception room opening into the dining room, a separate kitchen/breakfast room, downstairs cloakroom and integral garage.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, a family bathroom and useful walk-in eaves storage.
A particular feature of the home is the mature south-easterly facing rear garden, extending to over 80ft and offering an excellent degree of privacy.
The plot and surrounding properties clearly demonstrate the exciting potential available for enlargement and enhancement.
MacDonald Road is regarded as one of Lightwater’s most established and sought-after residential roads, appreciated for its peaceful setting, mature surroundings and convenient access to local amenities.
Lightwater Village is within easy reach and offers a selection of independent shops, cafés and everyday conveniences, while the area is particularly well known for its excellent access to outdoor space, including Lightwater Country Park and nearby woodland walks.
The property is also ideally positioned for commuters, with swift access to the M3, providing connections to London, the South Coast and surrounding business hubs.
Nearby towns including Camberley, Farnham and Guildford offer a wider range of shopping, restaurants and leisure facilities, while the area is well served by highly regarded schools in both the state and independent sectors.
