Timsbury, Nr Romsey

DESCRIPTION:
A spacious and well-arranged detached house built in 1995 and surrounded by private, mature gardens approaching one-quarter of an acre.  The property enjoys a secluded position at the end of the cul-de-sac having a large frontage providing comfortable parking for five to six cars in addition to the double garage with a very useful office above.  Approached through a double five-bar gate and surrounded by mature trees and shrubs, the house does require a general makeover but does offer accommodation of generous proportions ideal for a family.  Arranged over two floors and extending to over 1,800 square feet (not including the double garage) the property is highly recommended for its position and potential to be fully appreciated.
