Goswell Square, Alton, GU34 2FZ

Fancy Leaving The Car Charging On The Drive All Week? It’s less than a ten minute walk to the station, with an even shorter stroll to Anstey Park for after school and weekends. A smart, spacious modern home on a popular development, with friendly families on either side. Move to Goswell Square and your rush hour commute can start on foot and the school run turns into a stroll. The car stays on the drive, topping up on the EV charger, while you get on with your day. Back at the house, the open-plan kitchen and dining area is sure to be where everyone ends up. The classic shaker-style cupboards and solid oak worktops add natural warmth, and the breakfast bar has room for the whole family to gather round. Patio doors open from the dining area onto a large paved terrace that catches the sun for most of the day. Beyond it, the lawn has a brand new play area and space for a trampoline, and the front garden has been freshly planted. A utility room off the kitchen has a sink and space for a washing machine and dryer, with upper cabinets added by the current owners. There’s under-stairs storage too, and a downstairs WC. At the front of the house, the living room has a bay window. The study on the other side of the hall works equally well as a quiet office or a toy-filled hideaway or playroom. Upstairs, the master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom, built-in wardrobe and room for a Super Kingsize bed. Three more double bedrooms share a family bathroom with a shower over the bath. The drive takes two cars, and the garage has insulated roof boards and a door out to the garden. There’s already a PodPoint charger fitted for your EV. It is a very family friendly development with roughly three quarters of the homes on the estate being families. Perhaps that’s because the local primary schools are all rated “Good” by Ofsted. Wootey Infant School is the closest, only a three minute drive away or less than a 15 minute walk. Older children can choose between Eggar’s School (rated “Outstanding”), and Amery Hill School. The station is less than a ten minute walk away, and Waitrose sits roughly halfway along Anstey Road, so you can nip in for a top up shop on the way home. Trains run direct to London Waterloo in just over an hour and being at the start of the line, you’re pretty much guaranteed a seat! Anstey Park is an even shorter walk, with tennis courts and a skate park among the green space. It’s the obvious place to head for after school and at the weekend. And if you’re a keen runner, walker or cyclist, you’re within 1km of countryside and plenty of opportunities to get out and explore. The High Street is a fifteen minute walk or five minutes in the car, with a good mix of independent shops and big names like M&S and Sainsbury’s. Guildford and Winchester are just over half an hour away on the A31, and Alice Holt Forest has woodland trails and a Go Ape high ropes course for bigger days out. If you want to walk to the train on weekdays and to the park after school without reaching for the car keys, this is a spacious and stylish home that makes it easy. We’re expecting plenty of interest, so get in touch to arrange a viewing.
