Description

Includes a share in the Greenacre Residents Company, a select development of just 12 homes, which holds ownership of the freehold. Discover the pinnacle of sophisticated retirement living with this stylish, modern residence. Perfectly situated just a short stroll from the historic charm of Alton town centre, this home combines traditional architectural grace with the effortless convenience of contemporary design.

Set within a beautifully landscaped luxury development, this property offers a peaceful sanctuary for those aged 55 and over who refuse to compromise on quality or space.

The ground floor has been masterfully planned to offer a sense of flow and light. A magnificent drawing room serves as the heart of the home, leading through to a formal dining room and a spectacular, sun-drenched garden room. With double doors opening directly onto a private terrace and a primarily south-facing garden, the transition between the elegant interior and the manicured outdoor spaces is seamless.

The kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring sleek eye and base level cabinetry and a full suite of integrated Bosch and Smeg appliances, including an integrated dishwasher, while the washing machine and tumble dryer are seamlessly incorporated into the cabinetry for a streamlined finish. A convenient downstairs W/C further enhances the practicality of the ground floor layout. Comfort and efficiency are woven into the very fabric of the house. The ground floor enjoys the gentle warmth of underfloor heating, complemented by gas-fired radiators on the upper level and high-performance double glazing throughout.

Upstairs, the accommodation is equally impressive. The principal bedroom suite is a true retreat, boasting a private en-suite shower room and a charming Juliet balcony that overlooks the gardens. There is exciting potential to adapt this space into a full walk-out balcony over the garden room below, subject to the necessary planning permissions and freeholder consents. A generous second double bedroom and a pristine family bathroom complete the first floor.

Beyond the threshold, the location is unbeatable. Residents enjoy the best of both worlds: the quiet security of an exclusive community and the vibrant amenities of Alton. Whether you are browsing the local boutiques, enjoying a coffee in the market square, or exploring the rolling hills of the surrounding Hampshire countryside, everything you need is within easy reach. This is more than just a house; it is an invitation to enjoy a refined, low-maintenance lifestyle in one of the area’s most prestigious settings.
