Description

Hamwic Independent Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this well maintained and well presented three bedroom detached bungalow, enviably positioned within a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly desirable West Totton area, on the fringes of the New Forest National Park. Occupying a generous corner plot, this attractive home benefits from a spacious lounge, conservatory, kitchen, family bathroom, en-suite shower room, garage, and ample off road parking. Further benefits include double glazed windows, gas central heating, landscaped front and rear gardens, vacant possession, and no forward chain. Built circa 1999, the property has clearly been very well cared for throughout and offers buyers an excellent opportunity to enjoy immediately, whilst also allowing scope to update certain areas over time to suit their own taste if desired.

Property Walkthrough 
Front Aspect & Approach
Positioned on a generous corner plot within a quiet and established cul-de-sac, the property enjoys an attractive frontage with open plan landscaped presentation to the front. A tarmac driveway extends to the side of the bungalow, providing access to the front of the garage and offering useful off road parking. In addition, there is further parking positioned to the front of the property, making this an excellent setup for multiple vehicles.

Two gates offer access through to the rear garden, whilst the main entrance door opens directly into the welcoming entrance hall.

Entrance Hall
The entrance hall provides a pleasant and spacious introduction to the property, featuring a smooth and coved ceiling, radiator, and two useful storage cupboards, one of which houses the hot water tank. Two double glazed windows to the side aspect allow for natural light, and doors lead through to the principal accommodation.

Lounge
The lounge is a particularly appealing reception room and offers generous proportions, enhanced by a lovely dual aspect arrangement with two double glazed windows to the front and two further windows to the side, creating a bright and airy feel throughout. The room also benefits from double glazed sliding doors opening directly into the conservatory, allowing the living space to flow nicely into the garden-facing accommodation beyond.

Further features include a smooth and coved ceiling, two radiators, and a feature electric fireplace, providing an attractive focal point to the room. 

Kitchen
Positioned to the front of the bungalow, the kitchen is fitted with a range of work surfaces incorporating units and drawers to the base level, with matching eye level cupboards providing ample storage. There is a front aspect double glazed window, integrated gas hob, electric oven, sink unit, space for a fridge/freezer, and space and plumbing for a washing machine.

Further features include tiled splashbacks, under-cabinet lighting, vinyl flooring, and the wall mounted gas boiler concealed within an eye level unit. Whilst the kitchen may now offer a more traditional style, it has clearly been very well maintained and remains perfectly functional, giving buyers the option to enjoy as is or update in time to their own specification.

Bedroom Three / Dining Room
This versatile room is positioned to the rear of the property and currently offers flexibility to suit a buyer’s needs. It could comfortably remain as a third bedroom, guest room, or alternatively serve as a separate dining room, study, or hobby space. Features include a smooth and coved ceiling, double glazed rear aspect window, and radiator.

Bedroom Accommodation
Bedroom One
A well proportioned principal bedroom positioned to the rear of the bungalow, enjoying a peaceful outlook over the garden. The room benefits from a smooth and coved ceiling, double glazed rear aspect window, radiator, fitted carpet, and a range of built-in wardrobes and drawers providing excellent storage.

A door leads directly into the en-suite shower room.

En-Suite Shower Room
The en-suite is fitted with a shower cubicle with shower fitted, low level WC, and wash hand basin. Further features include part tiled walls, radiator, smooth ceiling, and an obscure double glazed rear aspect window. Similar to the kitchen, the en-suite has been well cared for and remains perfectly usable, whilst offering scope for cosmetic updating should a buyer wish.

Bedroom Two
A further well proportioned bedroom positioned to the rear, benefiting from a smooth and coved ceiling, double glazed rear aspect window, and radiator. Ideal as a second bedroom, guest room, or study depending on requirements.

Family Bathroom
The family bathroom is fitted with an enclosed bath with mixer tap, low level WC, and wash hand basin. Additional features include part tiled walls, radiator, extractor fan, and smooth and coved ceiling. Again, this room reflects the general theme of the property being well maintained and fully functional, whilst presenting an opportunity for buyers to modernise in time if desired.

Conservatory
Positioned to the rear and accessed directly from the lounge, the conservatory adds valuable extra living space and enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden. Constructed with a brick base and polycarbonate roof, the room benefits from glazed windows to the side and rear aspects, power and lighting, and a door opening directly out to the garden. 

This is an ideal additional reception area for sitting, reading, or enjoying the garden outlook throughout the seasons.

Rear Garden
The rear garden is a particularly attractive feature of the property and enjoys an L-shaped layout, enhancing the sense of space and offering a lovely variety of usable outdoor areas. A paved patio extends across the base of the bungalow, with the remainder of the garden laid mainly to lawn.

The garden is enclosed by timber fencing and enhanced by a variety of mature and attractive shrubs, plants, and flowers, together with a gravelled section and timber shed. There is also direct access into the garage via a personal door, adding further practicality.

Overall, the outside space is clearly well maintained, established, and in keeping with the cared-for feel of the property as a whole.

Garage
The garage benefits from an up and over door to the front, together with power and lighting. A personal door also provides direct access into the rear garden, making it ideal for storage, workshop use, or secure parking if preferred.

Location - Shawford Close is a quiet and well regarded cul-de-sac situated within the highly sought-after West Totton area, a location particularly favoured for its established residential feel, excellent access to local amenities, and close proximity to the New Forest National Park. This position offers buyers the best of both convenience and lifestyle, with nearby access to local shopping, bus routes, doctors, schools, and commuter links towards Southampton, whilst also being just moments from beautiful open green spaces, woodland walks, and the wider New Forest surroundings.
