CHARMING THREE BEDROOM HOME SITUATED ON THE GROUNDS OF A COUNTRY HOUSE DATING BACK TO CIRCA 1762
Steeped in history and built in the grounds of Brambridge House, is The Dove House, The Close. Historically used as a dove house and stables, the buildings in The Close originally serviced the main house for many years. They were subsequently converted into various residential dwellings around the 1950's and are now occupied by a range of residents. Brambridge House is a Grade II* listed country house, dating back to circa 1762, and was remodelled after a fire in 1872 by M. Digby-Wyatt. The property is accessed via a private road through the estate, which is managed by Brambridge House Residents Management LTD. The estate itself is Grade II* listed and there are curtilage/heritage considerations for permitted developments/planning permissions.
Remaining within the same owners for the last 48 years, The Dove House comprises many original features such as high ceilings and large windows throughout. On entering the property, the hallway leads to all principal ground floor rooms, along with stairs to the first floor bedroom suite. The internal layout is spacious and comprises; kitchen/dining room with ample built in units, space for dining table, fitted electric oven/hob, sink, accompanied by views directly onto the garden, utility which offers further storage and houses the boiler, bedroom two, the home office/bedroom three, a three piece shower room, and the living room. The living room boasts dual aspect windows, along with French doors opening onto the garden. To the first floor is the principal bedroom suite, a stunning addition to the property, with a vaulted ceiling in the bedroom area, a range of windows for various views that also flood the space with natural light, a dressing area and en-suite facilities.
The gardens are a particular feature of the property, designed as a well-established and maintained space, enjoying the meandering River Itchen making it enjoyable throughout the year with the changing colours of the seasons. Swans, ducks, herons, and more native wildlife have been sighted along the river by residents of the estate. Those with a fishing licence can enjoy this hobby and fish in the River Itchen whilst remaining within the boundary of the property.
