Back Lane, Andover, SP11

Allways is a charming Grade II Listed village house, believed to date from the 18th century, combining period character with thoughtful modern additions. Sympathetically extended and beautifully presented throughout, the property offers well-balanced accommodation extending to almost 2,000 sq ft, including a versatile detached studio and useful cellar.
The house is rich in original features, with exposed timbers, sections of traditional wattle and daub and a wealth of character throughout. At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room, providing an excellent space for both family life and entertaining, with direct access to the garden. Complementing this are two attractive reception rooms, including a dual-aspect sitting room and a cosy snug, both enjoying an abundance of natural light. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor provides a principal bedroom with en suite and two further bedrooms, one is a double and the other a smaller children's bedroom; these are served by a family bathroom, while a detached studio offers flexible ancillary space and could be utilised as a home office, creative workspace, gym or further double bedroom, subject to any necessary consents. A useful cellar/playroom further enhances the property's versatility.

Outside

Outside, the delightful gardens are a particular feature, being predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by established flower and shrub borders, creating colour and interest throughout the seasons. A generous terrace adjoining the house provides an ideal setting for al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining. The property provides shed storage and off street parking for a number of vehicles.
