Crookham Road, Fleet, GU51

Property Description

Dating back to around 1880 and forming part of the original Fleet and Crookham development, this is a home that offers something increasingly hard to find… character, space, and a lifestyle centred around entertaining, family life and the outdoors.

Set on a generous and unusually wide plot, the property has been thoughtfully modernised to suit modern living, while retaining the charm and individuality expected of a home of this period. The width of the plot also offers potential for further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

Positioned with excellent access to local schools, transport links and amenities, the property also benefits from driveway parking for up to five vehicles, along with a detached outbuilding offering highly versatile additional space.

Ground Floor

The heart of the home is a large open plan kitchen, dining and living space designed very much with modern lifestyles in mind. This is a house that comes into its own when hosting… whether that’s family time, social occasions or larger gatherings.

The kitchen features contemporary units, integrated appliances, a central island and breakfast bar, all flowing naturally into a bright and spacious living area. Large sliding doors open directly onto the patio, creating a strong connection between inside and out.

In addition to the main living space, there is also a separate front reception room or snug, offering a quieter, more relaxed space away from the main hub of the house.

A ground floor WC and separate shower room provide practical day-to-day convenience, particularly well suited to garden use, muddy walks or pets.

First Floor

Upstairs offers well-proportioned bedrooms filled with natural light, along with a main family bathroom finished in a clean, modern style.

A converted loft space provides an additional bedroom or flexible area for use as a study, hobby room or occasional accommodation.

Outside

The rear garden is a standout feature, offering a large, well-designed patio area ideal for entertaining, alongside planted and raised sections that create both interest and privacy.

A feature period-style garden lamp adds character, while external power points and festoon-style lighting allow the space to be easily transformed in the evenings, creating a warm and inviting setting whether hosting or enjoying quieter time around a firepit.

A key lifestyle feature is the direct access from the garden onto the Basingstoke Canal towpath. To one direction, the towpath leads towards Odiham and Greywell, passing local favourites such as The Fox & Hounds and The Barley Mow. In the opposite direction, it offers scenic routes towards Mytchett, Frimley, Brookwood and beyond.

Outbuilding / Studio

A key feature of the property is the detached outbuilding, currently arranged as an office and music room, complete with WC and basin.

This highly versatile space lends itself to a range of uses including a home office, studio, treatment room, client-facing workspace, or potentially additional accommodation or Airbnb-style use, subject to any necessary permissions.

Location & Connectivity

The property is well positioned for access to Fleet town centre, local amenities and a range of well-regarded schools across multiple age groups.

Bus stops are located directly outside the property on both sides of the road, providing convenient access to Fleet mainline station. From there, direct trains to London Waterloo typically take around 40–45 minutes, making this a practical option for commuters.
