Hamwic Independent Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this generously sized and well-proportioned three bedroom detached house, enviably positioned within the highly sought-after and desirable area of Bartley, Hampshire, just minutes from the open New Forest National Park.

Offering excellent room proportions and a well-balanced layout throughout, this attractive detached home presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers seeking a property they can personalise and improve over time.

The entrance hallway provides access to the main ground floor accommodation and benefits from a radiator, useful storage cupboard and access to the ground floor cloakroom, fitted with a low level WC and wash hand basin.

Features include stairs rising to the first floor, radiator, sliding doors through to the rear lounge, patio doors to the side aspect, and a door into the kitchen.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of work surfaces with cupboards and drawers, sink unit, built-in oven, grill and gas hob, together with space for a fridge/freezer and washing machine. A front aspect window provides natural light, and the layout offers excellent potential for future updating.

Located to the rear, the lounge is a well-proportioned reception room with a pleasant outlook over the garden. Sliding patio doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a lovely connection between the indoor and outdoor space.

First Floor Accommodation
The first floor landing provides access to a useful storage cupboard and doors to all three bedrooms and the family bathroom.

All three bedrooms are well proportioned and benefit from double glazed windows and radiators.

Bedroom one is a generous double bedroom, positioned to the rear and benefits from built-in wardrobes.

Bedroom two is another generous double room, located to the front and also benefitting from built-in wardrobes.

Bedroom three is positioned to the side and offers flexibility as a bedroom, nursery or home office. This room also houses the airing cupboard and provides access to the loft.

The rear garden is a generous and private outdoor space, offering excellent potential for families or keen gardeners. A patio area sits to the rear of the property, with the remainder mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by timber fencing. The garden is enhanced by a variety of mature bushes, shrubs and trees, creating a pleasant established feel.

Further benefits include an outside tap, wooden shed, greenhouse and return access gate to the front.

To the side, the detached garage is brick built with an up-and-over door, with driveway parking positioned in front.
