Powell Crescent, Hounsdown

Hamwic Independent Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this well-presented and modernised three-bedroom semi-detached home, pleasantly positioned within a cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after Hounsdown area of Totton.

Occupying a particularly generous corner plot, the property offers an excellent combination of family accommodation and outside space. The ground floor features a spacious dual-aspect lounge, impressive refitted kitchen/breakfast room and conservatory, whilst upstairs are three bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC.

The garden is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features, wrapping around the rear and side of the house to create a substantial and versatile outdoor space. There is a dedicated children's play area, generous lawn, patio seating area and a timber summer cabin with adjoining workshop/storage, both benefiting from power and lighting.

Further benefits include double glazed windows, gas central heating and excellent loft storage, making this an appealing home for first-time buyers, young families or those simply looking for more outside space within this popular residential area.

Ground Floor
The property is approached through an enclosed front garden, bordered by low-level fencing and predominantly laid to lawn. A pathway leads through the centre towards the main entrance, whilst a pedestrian gate provides convenient access into the rear garden.

The front door opens into an enclosed entrance porch, creating a useful everyday space for coats, shoes and additional storage before entering the main accommodation.

A further door leads into the entrance hall, which is finished with fitted carpet, radiator and smooth ceiling. Doors provide access to the lounge and kitchen/breakfast room.

Running along one side of the house from front to rear is the spacious dual-aspect lounge, providing an excellent principal family reception room. 

A double glazed window overlooks the front garden, whilst double glazed double doors at the rear provide a direct connection with the garden and allow plenty of natural light through the room.

A feature fireplace creates a central focal point, complemented by fitted carpet, two radiators and a textured ceiling. The proportions allow plenty of flexibility for a variety of seating and furniture arrangements.

Kitchen - Breakfast Room
Another particularly impressive feature and provides a generous social space designed around everyday family living. The kitchen incorporates a contemporary combination of base-level cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and a bank of contrasting full-height units. These are positioned alongside a dedicated recess for an American-style fridge/freezer, with one of the tall units incorporating a particularly useful pull-out pantry.

There is space for a range-style cooker together with an integrated dishwasher, whilst the generous central breakfast bar provides additional preparation space, storage and a dedicated seating recess.

The breakfast bar also incorporates a built-in drinks cooler, with contemporary LED strip lighting adding subtle ambient illumination.

At the end of the kitchen is a dedicated utility area, providing space and plumbing for a washing machine without compromising the main kitchen arrangement.

Further features include a smooth ceiling with recessed downlighting, radiator and double glazed rear aspect window. Attractive wood-effect tiled flooring runs throughout the room and continues naturally into the conservatory.

Double doors open into the conservatory, providing a useful additional reception area overlooking the garden.

Constructed with a brick base, double glazed windows to the rear and side aspects and a pitched polycarbonate roof, the conservatory provides plenty of flexibility as an additional sitting area, play space or dining extension. Double glazed doors open directly onto the garden, creating an excellent connection between the internal and external spaces.

First Floor Accommodation
Stairs rise to the first floor landing, which benefits from a smooth ceiling, radiator and double glazed rear aspect window.

Access is provided to the loft via a pull-down ladder. The loft is part-boarded with fitted lighting and also houses the gas combination boiler, providing useful additional storage space.

Doors lead to all three bedrooms, the family bathroom and separate WC.

All three bedrooms are finished with smooth ceilings, fitted carpet, radiators and double glazed windows.

Bedroom One is positioned at the front and provides a generous principal bedroom with a useful built-in storage cupboard positioned above the stairs.

Bedroom Two is also positioned at the front and again benefits from a built-in storage cupboard over the stairwell, providing valuable additional storage.

Bedroom Three is positioned at the rear, overlooking the garden, and incorporates a useful storage recess.

The family bathroom comprises an enclosed panelled bath and wash hand basin, complemented by tiled walls and flooring. Further features include a heated towel rail, smooth ceiling and double glazed rear aspect window.

Alongside the bathroom is a separate WC, particularly practical for family living. This room is again finished with tiled walls and flooring, smooth ceiling and benefits from a double glazed rear aspect window.

Gardens & Outside
The outside space is undoubtedly one of the defining features. Occupying a generous corner plot, the garden wraps around the rear and side of the house, providing considerably more outside space than typically associated with a property of this style.

Predominantly laid to lawn, the garden provides plenty of open space for children, pets, entertaining and general recreation. Mature trees positioned around the immediate rear boundary provide an attractive green backdrop and help create a good degree of privacy.

A dedicated children's play area has been created and finished with wood chippings, providing a defined space away from the principal lawn and entertaining areas.

A pathway runs around the property and conservatory before connecting with a slightly raised paved patio, creating an excellent position for outdoor dining furniture, barbecues and entertaining.

Positioned alongside this area is a timber summer cabin, which forms another excellent feature of the garden. Double entrance doors open into a useful entertaining or recreational space, with front-facing windows providing natural light. Power and lighting are fitted, allowing the cabin to be enjoyed for a variety of purposes throughout the year.

Adjoining the cabin is a separate workshop/storage room, again benefiting from power and lighting together with its own independent consumer unit. This provides excellent practical storage and workshop space without taking anything away from the main cabin.

The garden is enclosed by fencing and also benefits from an outside water tap and pedestrian access back towards the front of the property.
