About this home

Location: The property is situated in the heart of Romsey, just yards from the bustling town centre which has as its centrepiece a famous Norman Abbey.  A historic market town straddling the River Test, Romsey is well served by a number of larger stores including Waitrose and Bradbeers Independent Department Store which are complemented by an eclectic mix of local independent retailers and traditional high street favourites.

There are numerous coffee shops and bars many of which front the popular plaza in the Market Place at the top of The Hundred, along with many restaurants providing informal dining from a wide variety of cuisines.

Romsey has bus and rail stations providing direct links to the neighbouring cities of Salisbury, Winchester and Southampton and is also well placed for access onto the M27/M3 motorway network for London and the South Coast, whilst the area offers a wide choice of schools for all age groups in both the public and private sectors.

Accommodation: Upon entering the property, a welcoming entrance hall immediately sets the tone, with solid oak flooring adding warmth and character. The inviting sitting room features characterful sash windows and an open fire, creating a wonderfully cosy space in which to relax. Continuing through the hallway, the formal dining room provides an elegant setting for entertaining, with a natural connection to the well-appointed kitchen. Featuring a Belfast sink, ample storage and space for white goods, the kitchen blends traditional appeal with everyday practicality. To the rear, a beautiful garden room provides an additional reception space, enjoying delightful views across the private walled garden. A converted basement offers further versatility, ideal for use as a snug, study or hobby room, depending on individual requirements.

The first floor continues to impress, with three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all served by a modern family bathroom.

Outside: The private walled garden has been tastefully landscaped, with areas of lawn, patio and mature shrubs creating an attractive and established setting for relaxation and outdoor entertaining. Allocated parking is situated to the rear, with access through the garden directly to the property.

Agent's Note: Approximately half of Bedroom Three extends over the adjoining property so is a Flying Freehold. The parking area behind the property is Leasehold, held on a 150 year lease from 28th October 1986.
