The ground floor guest cloakroom is fitted with Amtico style flooring, wash hand basin and a close coupled WC, with a window to the side.

The main living room has a feature stone fireplace with an inset wood burning stove, windows to the front and side elevations and glazed double doors leading through to the kitchen.

The sitting room/family room is currently being used as a home office and features a bay window overlooking the side garden with a second window overlooking the front garden and wood flooring.

The large open plan living/dining kitchen has been fitted with an extensive range of base and wall mounted cabinets with granite effect work surfaces which incorporate a one and a half bowl sink with mixer tap and matching splashbacks. There is an island unit with a breakfast bar. There is also plumbing for a dishwasher and space for an American style fridge/freezer and range style cooker. Tiled flooring continues throughout the whole of this room, with rear facing windows overlooking the gardens and a connecting door through to the laundry room.

The dining area of this family room has ample space for a dining table and a further informal seating area. French doors lead out onto the timber decked terrace.

The laundry room has recently been refitted with a sleek range of floor to ceiling storage units with spaces for a washing machine and tumble dryer and a base sink unit with wood effect worksurface and a stainless steel sink. A door leads to the outside and an internal door leads through to the garage.

On the first floor stairs lead to a galleried landing which has a front facing double glazed window with views over Alton. Doors lead off to the bedrooms and family bathroom, and a further door leads to the second floor stairwell.

The master bedroom has lovely views over the trees and rooftops of Alton with a dressing area leading directly off the bedroom having a built-in wardrobe and storage cupboard, and a further connecting door leading to the en-suite bathroom. The en-suite features a full three-piece suite comprising panel bath with shower over and glass screen, vanity wash basin with storage beneath and a vanity mirror above, and a close coupled WC.

Outside, the property is located off a driveway shared with just one other property. The front garden lies on both sides of the driveway in front of the house, providing two lawned areas and wonderful views over the trees and rooftops of Alton. The driveway extends in front of the house to provide ample parking and leading to an integral garage having up and over door, light and power points, cold water tap and an internal door to the laundry room. There is also a vehicle electric charge point located to the side of the garage.

The remaining gardens wrap around the property with a beautifully sheltered and completely private courtyard style garden to the side with a covered barbeque area and tiered timber decks.

The property is discreetly located within the heart of the village of Alton which boasts a wide range of amenities to include a primary school, Post Office, general store, doctor's surgery and numerous village public houses.
