Rowdell Cottages, Gascoigne Lane, Ropley, SO24 0BU

Modern Comforts Meet Old-Fashioned Village Life, Just Off Gascoigne Lane. Engineered oak floors, a stylish kitchen and air conditioning bring this 1990’s end terrace fully up to date. And the neighbours keep the quiet street’s welcoming and family-friendly feeling alive.

Many neighbours have enjoyed calling this established estate home since it was built in the mid-90s, creating a friendly and welcoming community that continues to thrive today.

Kids still play safely together on the green, horses graze in the paddock behind the gardens, and everyone genuinely knows everyone else's name. Sounds pretty idyllic doesn’t it?

If the friendly and welcoming street has remained the same over the years, inside, the current owners have systematically updated and improved the property, so there's very little left for you to do. 

Engineered oak flooring runs right through the ground floor, giving it a real touch of quality underfoot. 

The stylish and modern kitchen-diner was fitted in 2018 and still looks the part, with a Hotpoint double oven, matching Hotpoint dishwasher and an induction hob doing the heavy lifting for family cooking and weekend batch-baking alike. 

It flows into a lounge with room for the whole family and out through French doors to the back garden.

Upstairs, the main bedroom has lovely panelling and built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom also has built-in storage, and both this room and the third bedroom look out over open fields at the back - properly restful views. 

The family bathroom is simple, fresh and clean - it had its shower changed in 2023, so that's another job already ticked off your list.

Air conditioning was fitted in 2021, which makes living through record temperatures a lot more bearable and can also warm you up in the winter. 

The staircase and understairs storage were both replaced in 2016, and there's a handy downstairs cloakroom too.

Outside, the garden backs onto a paddock where a neighbour keeps horses, so you'll likely spot them grazing most days from the kitchen window. The fencing was all redone when the current owners moved in, and the whole space was landscaped in 2020, including the shed with its own power supply - useful for anyone wanting a workshop or extra storage. 

There's a driveway with an allocated space, plus plenty of visitor parking nearby.

Ropley itself has a village shop, a church and a busy village hall, while the primary school is rated "Good" by Ofsted and just a short drive away. 

Alresford, with its wider choice of shops and places to eat, is a little over four miles west, and commuters have direct rail links to London Waterloo from nearby stations.

If you want a genuinely modern home on a quiet, family friendly estate wrapped up in old-fashioned village warmth, this one deserves a proper look.

I’m expecting plenty of interest, so get in touch to arrange a viewing.

Please note, there is a charge of £25.76 per month for grounds maintenance and waste water removal.
