Thruxton, Andover

Located within the hugely popular village of Thruxton, is this fine characterful four bedroom detached family home.
 
Brookside House is believed to date to around the late 1800s with two later extensions. The resulting accommodation comprises a ground floor layout with large entrance porch, sitting room with an attractive period open fireplace, separate dining room with open chimney housing a log burning stove, large family room currently in use as a study and a nicely proportioned kitchen which has been refitted with a range of farmhouse style units and woodblock worktops.   There is also an inner hall with access to all the main rooms as well as a generous utility room and cloakroom.

The first floor boasts a large, light and airy full returning galleried landing with access to the main roof space. The main suite comprises a large double bedroom with a newly refurbished en-suite shower room, two further double bedrooms, a large single bedroom and a fair sized family bathroom.  The  property is fully double glazed and centrally heated via an oil fired boiler to radiators.
 
Siding on to the village street, the property sits to the rear of its plot with the large majority of the garden located to the front; the garden is laid mainly to lawn with a sheltered patio/seating area, established flower beds, specimen shrubs and mature trees. There is a large (walled) courtyard extending across the rear with access from the utility room. From the village street a private gated drive leads off road parking, turning and access to a detached double garage.
