Downs Park Avenue, Eling, SO40

Hamwic Independent Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this substantially extended and completely modernised four/five bedroom chalet-style home, positioned within the popular Eling area of Totton.

The property has undergone a significant transformation, including a substantial rear extension, the addition of first-floor accommodation, extensive refurbishment throughout and landscaping of the outside space.

The result is a spacious and flexible family home centred around an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, complemented by ground and first-floor bedrooms, two modern bathrooms, garage and off-road parking.

Accommodation
The entrance hall provides access to the principal ground-floor rooms. Positioned towards the front are two flexible ground-floor rooms. One is currently arranged as a bedroom, while the second has most recently been used as a home office. This room has previously served as a bedroom and could readily provide a fifth bedroom, home office, playroom or additional reception space depending on the requirements of the next owner.

A modern ground-floor bathroom provides useful facilities for the bedrooms on this level and adds further flexibility for families requiring predominantly ground-floor accommodation.

The major feature of the ground floor is the extended open-plan kitchen, dining and living space positioned across the rear.

Designed to create a central family area, this generous room provides plenty of space for separate cooking, dining and seating zones while maintaining an open and connected layout.

The kitchen has been recently fitted by Wren and features contemporary cabinetry, generous work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances. The arrangement works particularly well for everyday family life and entertaining, with the living and dining areas enjoying a pleasant outlook across the rear garden.

The addition of the rear extension has significantly increased the ground-floor footprint and created a much more modern style of living than the original bungalow layout.

First Floor Accommodation
The addition of the first floor has transformed the property, providing further bedroom accommodation and significantly increasing the overall versatility of the house. There are three rooms on this level, offering a combination of bedrooms, children's rooms, dressing space or home-working accommodation depending on individual requirements.

Together with the two rooms on the ground floor, the property can provide up to five bedrooms, although buyers may prefer to retain one of the ground-floor rooms as a snug or secondary reception room.

The first floor is completed by a modern family bathroom, giving the property bathroom facilities on both levels.

Outside
The rear garden has also undergone improvement as part of the wider refurbishment and offers a practical combination of patio and lawn. The garden provides plenty of room for outdoor seating, entertaining and family use, with the open-plan living accommodation at the rear of the property creating a natural connection between the house and garden.

A garage is positioned towards the rear and provides useful storage, workshop or parking potential depending on buyer requirements.

To the front, the property benefits from off-road driveway parking.
