Description

Welcome to Melvin Close, a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious three/four-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, occupying a generous corner plot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. The property has been tastefully improved and maintained by the current owners, offering modern, flexible accommodation that is both extensive and manageable. With its layout and secondary access points, the home presents an exciting opportunity to create a fully self-contained one-bedroom annexe, making it well-suited for multi-generational living or those seeking additional independent space.

The welcoming entrance hall leads into a spacious sitting room, open plan to a modern, well-equipped kitchen. The kitchen features a comprehensive range of shaker-style wall and base units, attractive worksurfaces, a large breakfast bar and French doors overlooking the rear garden. This home offers fantastic annex potential. The kitchen is already equipped with two cookers, plumbing for a second sink, and a natural dividing line. With these features in place, converting back to a self-contained annex would be incredibly straightforward. It's a unique opportunity for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even rental income.

From the sitting room, a feature spiral staircase rises to a first-floor bedroom enjoying far-reaching views and useful eaves storage. Three further bedrooms are located on the ground floor, each well proportioned, one of which with an en-suite shower room. The further two bedrooms are served by a family bathroom fitted with a white suite, including bath, wash basin and WC. A further reception/dining room opens directly onto the garden, while an additional conservatory-style porch offers independent access. This arrangement enhances the property's versatility and provides the framework for a potential annexe conversion if desired.

Outside The property is set back within a quiet cul-de-sac and approached via a herringbone brick driveway providing ample off-road parking. A recently constructed garage with roller door further complements the parking provision. To the rear, the garden enjoys a westerly aspect and a high degree of privacy. Designed with ease of maintenance in mind. A summerhouse sits toward the far end, offering further leisure or storage options, and side access is available.

This well-presented and highly adaptable home combines generous accommodation with excellent potential, in a peaceful residential setting. Offering the scope to configure the space to individual needs, Melvin Close is a unique and versatile property that will appeal to a wide range of buyers.

About Oliver Chandler, Salisbury

62 Castle Street, Salisbury, SP1 3TS

A property team built on firm foundations

Jamie and Faye launched Oliver Chandler in January 2018. But, as one of Salisbury's newest estate agents, they've already become one of its most successful.

However, their story together goes back much further than that!

Collectively, they have more than a couple of decades of property sales and property lettings experience around Salisbury between them to offer you. All of which is built on unrivalled local knowledge.

Faye grew up in the New Forest just to the south of Salisbury, while Jamie's family moved to the area when he was 13 years old. They grew up in the same village and became firm friends while attending secondary school in Fordingbridge

The best of rivals

From a standing start in 2006, Jamie then developed a successful career in property sales in Salisbury, working for some of the city's leading estate agents.

Faye began her career in the same year but focused on property lettings. She spent time in London and Salisbury, rising to be area manager with one estate agent and lettings director of another. During this time Faye became Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA) qualified.

In fact, for many years Faye and Jamie worked directly opposite each other, for competing Salisbury estate agents. But, having often talked about joining forces and starting their own agency, and with their 40th birthdays looming, they finally took the plunge. In January 2018 they launched Oliver Chandler to specialise in property for sale and property for rent in Salisbury and the surrounding area.

Integrity and innovation

In a competitive market it's difficult to differentiate between estate agents. However, what sets Oliver Chandler apart is their belief in combining old-fashioned quality, service and value with new technologies to rapidly match the right property for sale or rent with the right people, for the right price.

Their reputation is such that most of their early growth has come almost exclusively through recommendation and referral.
