Alder Drive, Alderholt, SP6

Versatile and well-presented family home offering generous and flexible accommodation situated in the heart of Alderholt.

Step through the part-glazed front door into a welcoming porch, filled with natural light from a side window. A further glazed door opens into the spacious, oak timber floored hall with the staircase to the first floor and handy under-stairs storage.

The lounge is a cosy yet contemporary retreat, with a large front-facing window, oak timber flooring, and a neatly boxed-in radiator, creating a relaxing space for unwinding.

The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen and dining area - a wonderfully bright and sociable space.

The kitchen is well-equipped with a range of fitted units, tiled splashbacks, and a standout 5-burner Rangemaster cooker with double oven. There’s also a dishwasher space, larder cupboard, and ample space for your fridge freezer and washing machine.

A separate room off the dining area - currently used as a bedroom - opens directly onto the garden via double glazed French doors, offering versatility for family living, a separate dining area or a lovely space for working from home.

On the ground floor, you’ll also find a contemporary tiled shower room, complete with a large sliding-door shower cubicle, modern wash basin, WC, built-in linen cupboard, and heated towel rail.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing offers access to a part-boarded loft for extra storage. A built-in airing cupboard houses the combination boiler and provides slatted shelving for linen.

The main bedroom features mirrored sliding wardrobes and a large window creating a light and restful atmosphere. Two additional bedrooms - one double bedroom overlooking the garden and the smalleer single bedroom to the front - offer flexibility for the growing family or guests. The main bathroom is fitted with a clean white suite including a panel -enclosed bath, hand basin, and WC, complemented by tiled walls and laminate flooring.
