Newton Cottage is a Grade II listed residence located in the Alverstoke St Mary parish of Gosport. It offers plenty of charm and character, with original style features spanning across three floors. The current owners have added secondary glazing to the feature sash windows at the front of the house, improving energy efficiency and reducing external noise. Refurbished guttering and downpipes, along with brand-new bespoke double glazed windows and French doors to much of the rear elevation, further enhance the property. The near 2,000 sq ft of internal accommodation can be tailored to suit individual requirements, and there is scope to convert the detached coach house (subject to the necessary consents). Viewing is essential to fully appreciate everything this wonderful home has to offer.
The current owners are offering the property with a complete onward chain, having already found a property to purchase, ensuring a smoother and more straightforward transaction.
The house boasts three large receptions rooms with the sitting and family rooms to the front. Both of these rooms have feature fireplaces, picture rails and French doors along with high ceilings and stripped wooden entrance doors. To the rear of the house is the cottage style kitchen/breakfast room which has a range style oven which occupies the chimney recess and there is also an integrated dishwasher and cupboard housing the re-fitted boiler. There is a separate utility room which has a larder cupboard and stable style door. The formal dining room overlooks the rear garden and has French doors leading out. There is also a cloakroom/w.c on the ground floor.
The split level first floor landing provides access to the family bathroom which has a feature roll top bath and traditional high level cistern on the w.c. Also on this level are three bedrooms consisting of two large double bedrooms, with bedroom one benefiting from an en-suite shower room and a further large single bedroom. On the top floor there are two further double bedrooms with dormer windows which offer elevated views to the rear aspect and side aspect towards the Spinnaker Tower.
The wall enclosed country style rear garden offers a good degree of privacy and features a range of established plants, trees and shrubs and a new Pergola. There is a stone patio area which really catches the Summer sun and a large lawn area, part of which offers good shading. There is a timber built shed, brick built shed and gated side pedestrian access. There is also a detached coach house with power and light which has a personal side door from the garden, double doors to the driveway and further door opening from the first floor hay loft. To the front and side of the house is a block paved driveway providing parking for several vehicles along with outside lighting and double gated access from the main road.
