Bow Street, Alton, GU34 1NY

A stylish, updated semi that’s ready to enjoy from day one. The current owners have updated and redecorated the property throughout, from the kitchen and bathroom to the windows, roof and boiler, so you can simply move in and start enjoying your new home. Picture your first Saturday here. The kettle's on, you don’t need to worry about decorating or DIY, so the whole weekend belongs to you.  The lounge at the front has a bay window that fills the room with natural light and a gas fire for cosy evenings. Next door, the bright dining room has a feature fireplace and is the ideal space for family meals or entertaining friends. The kitchen has had a busy year, with a new floor, fresh paintwork, a designer radiator and a revamped breakfast bar.  The adjacent boot room opens onto the garden. Plug sockets are already in place should you wish to incorporate a dryer and make use of the space as a utility area. Upstairs has been redecorated and re-carpeted throughout in the last two years, including new skirting. The 16ft main bedroom has space for a king-size bed and freestanding wardrobes. The second bedroom is also a double, with built-in storage above the stairs. The bathroom has been transformed into a fully tiled shower room with a corner cubicle. There's a handy downstairs WC too. The insulated loft has a light, a pull-down ladder and is part-boarded. Other houses on the street have fully converted their lofts, so there's room to grow when you need it, subject to obtaining all the usual consents. The boiler is only around five years old and still under guarantee. The multi-point locking front door and most of the double-glazed windows were replaced in 2020. Outside, the garden has already reached the stage most gardeners dream about. The current owners have planted apple and cherry trees, along with redcurrants and gooseberries, creating a productive and attractive outdoor space that's ready to enjoy. A herb patch sits just outside the kitchen window, so there’s always something fresh to snip while supper cooks. Beyond the lawn and mature flower beds, there’s a generous patio with room for a table and chairs. The southeast-facing garden enjoys plenty of sunshine, and in the summer it’s the perfect place to relax at the end of the day or enjoy a barbeque with family and friends. The shed at the back has its own lights and power and offers useful storage or workshop space. There is gated side access to the garden. Bow Street is a quiet, friendly street, a few minutes’ walk from shops and local amenities. There is easy access to Alton rail station and major roads, as well as outdoor spaces such as the Butts Green, Windmill Hill and Chawton Woods, which are all close by. Please note: Side access is shared with the neighbouring property.
