A unique opportunity to acquire a detached 1930s family home with double garage and a building plot within the garden for a spacious contemporary house both quietly situated on the edge of this highly sought after Test Valley village
A detached family house with double garage being offered together with the former side garden where there is planning permission to erect a contemporary house. The new access has been installed to the plot as well as a new boundary fence. The main house has planning permission for a two-storey extension and some reconfiguring that would essentially provide a porch, hall with cloakroom, an open plan living dining room, separate study and a large open plan kitchen/breakfast room with central island, sliding doors to the rear garden, an adjoining utility and opening into the dining area. The first floor would have a principal bedroom with dressing area and en suite, three further double bedrooms (one en suite) and a family bathroom. The plan was also to turn the garage into a games room/home office/studio.
The property is situated in the highly sought after village of Houghton, which has delightful walks traversing the River Test and on to the renowned Test Way, Clarendon Way and Monarch Way. There is also an excellent public house/restaurant (The Boot Inn) and a church, both within a short stroll. Further facilities can be found in the neighbouring town of Stockbridge (2.7 miles) which offers a variety of shops, a post office, hotels, restaurants and public houses, churches and a doctors surgery. The cathedral cities of Salisbury and Winchester are both within a 20 minutes drive, and the A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London, the South Coast and the West Country.
