Test Rise, Chilbolton, Stockbridge, Hampshire, SO20

A detached four double bedroom bungalow that has been completely modernised to a high standard with two garages standing in a quarter acre plot featuring a quiet south easterly facing landscaped garden

A surprisingly spacious detached bungalow with two garages, one detached and the other adjoining the end of the bungalow, where it is then attached to the neighbouring bungalow’s garage. Situated at the very end of a well established close, the setting is particularly quiet and has a reassuring sense of security. Off road parking is available on the front drive. The bungalow occupies a plot extending to about 0.25 acres, comprising a level and private garden that is mature with an abundance of shrubs and trees. Recently landscaped, the garden includes a central glade style lawn with surrounding wilder areas and a new wildlife pond. The versatile accommodation is centred around a large garden facing living room, where a new Charnwood log burning stove has been installed, together with an open plan kitchen/dining room and adjoining utility. The fourth double bedroom has an open fireplace and could alternatively be used as a sitting room or home office. The dual aspect principal bedroom is located at the back of the property overlooking the garden with a well appointed principal bathroom being adjacent. The remaining bedrooms are located by a further well appointed bathroom. Significant investment over the last 24 months including new insulation under long warranty and new high output aluminium radiators will provide the new owners with an efficient and comfortable home, which is offered with no onward chain.

The property is situated in the sought after village of Chilbolton which has a post office/store, church, village hall and public house. A second public house The Mayfly sits on the banks of the River Test. There are many excellent walks to West Down and Chilbolton Common – a Designated Site of Special Scientific Interest and a renowned local beauty spot. There is a reputable primary school in the neighbouring village of Wherwell, approximately 1½ miles away, and the picturesque town of Stockbridge, some four miles distant. Andover, also four miles away, offers a comprehensive range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities, as well as a mainline railway station providing fast services to Waterloo. The cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury are about a 15 and 25 minute drive away respectively, and the A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London and the West Country.
