Ridges View, Little London, SP11

A wonderful and rare opportunity to acquire this extended family home in the hamlet of Little London, just north of Andover. The property benefits from generous driveway parking and an outlook to the rear over unspoilt open farmland. Originally of 1950s construction, the current vendors extended the property to one side in 2004 to provide the current configuration which comprises a ground floor with an entrance hallway, a good-sized, dual aspect living room, an open-plan kitchen/dining room with onward access to a conservatory at the rear and a family bathroom. The first floor offers two double bedrooms and a good-sized single along with a separate WC.

The hamlet of Little London is located three and a half miles north of Andover, within the southern boundary of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape. Nearby Enham Alamein benefits from having its own village shop, supplying locally sourced goods and includes a Post Office. There is also a charity shop with a cafe, set amongst a two-hundred year-old walled garden. Local country pubs can be found a short distance away in various directions including the Oak at Smannell which is just a quarter of a mile away. Various public footpaths and byways offer access to open countryside, right on the doorstep of the property. Andover's town centre provides shopping, leisure and health facilities with the mainline railway station giving London bound commuters an hour's journey into Waterloo along with the nearby A303 and A34 providing excellent road links in all directions. Enham Alamein is on a bus route that links both Andover and Newbury.
