Property description

Offering extensive accommodation, great potential and 2 garages, a 4 bedroom chalet style semi-detached home at the end of a favoured, established and level cul-de-sac within The Ridgeway/Windmill Hill area.

Description
The property has scope for alterations including updating and replanning the layout if required subject to any necessary consents. Occupying a progressively widening garden plot, there is a South Easterly aspect to the rear enjoyed by the lounge, dining room and bedrooms one and four. The layout would also lend itself informally to a relation living in on the ground floor. There is double glazing unless specified otherwise and a gas heating system via radiators with individual thermostatic controls upstairs.

Location
The cul-de-sac is in a residential area on the elevated South side of Alton and consists of detached, semi-detached and terraced homes of different designs and sizes dating from the 1960s. The town's High Street is within 0.7 mile with major shops including M&S, Boots and Iceland and an adjacent Sainsburys, open air market events, places to entertain and eat, a fitness studio and museum. Historic Alton also has primary, senior and Convent schools, a further education college, a station (Waterloo line), Waitrose store and retail park, a sports centre and 2 golf courses on the outskirts. The town is recognised for its connections with Jane Austen and has also been recently designated as walker friendly.
