About
An exciting opportunity to renovate a spacious period home in this most sought after location within the popular village of Ampfield Occupying a delightful position along one of Ampfield's most desirable lanes, this charming period residence presents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a character home requiring complete modernisation and refurbishment throughout.
Retaining many original features including exposed timber framing, brick elevations and fireplaces, the house provides an excellent canvas for sympathetic restoration and, subject to the necessary planning consents, offers considerable scope for reconfiguration, extension or enhancement to create a superb family home.
The current accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a generous sitting room, separate dining room, study, kitchen, ground floor cloakroom and utility area.
To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, one with en-suite WC, and a family bathroom.
Externally, the property enjoys gardens to the front and rear, together with a driveway and detached double garage, offering further flexibility for storage and workshop space Located in the highly regarded village of Ampfield, the property benefits from easy access to Romsey, Winchester and Southampton, whilst being surrounded by beautiful Hampshire countryside.
The village is renowned for its strong community, centered around the pub, golf club and village cricket ground. There are excellent walks nearby within Ampfield Wood.
Although requiring comprehensive renovation, this is an exceptional opportunity for purchasers seeking to restore a character property in a prime village location to their own specification.
Situation Ampfield is one of Test Valley's most sought-after villages, offering a strong community atmosphere and a range of local amenities including a church, public houses (including the newly re-furbished Potters Heron), recreation ground, cricket club and par-three golf course.
Ampfield Wood provides extensive walking routes nearby, while the cathedral city of Winchester and the market town of Romsey offer a wider selection of shops, restaurants, schooling and leisure facilities.
Excellent road and rail links provide convenient access to Southampton, London and the South Coast.
