Property description

CHAIN-FREE SALE - Enjoying a good degree of seclusion, an established 3 bedroom semi-detached house with garage and on-site parking in a elevated cul-de-sac within 0.75 mile of the High Street.

Description
Notable for the good sized garden, privacy and naturally green rear aspect afforded by its set back and gently elevated location, the property was built by Chansom Estates in the 1960s and also enjoys distant views from the main bedroom across Alton to the surrounding countryside. Lending itself to potential enlargement and updating, the property has majority double glazing, a gas heating system with radiators, cavity wall insulation and pine panelled doors to the upstairs rooms. The well proportioned layout allows independent access to all the rooms from the reception hall or landing.

Location
Chestnut Close is a cul-de-sac within the popular Amery Farm residential area and consists of various style homes approached by Cherry Way, a crescent adjacent to a general stores and electrical and mobility shop, which are within 0.25 mile of the house. The property lies towards the country borders of Alton with footpaths leading into the North Downs. Alton's Georgian influenced High Street has national and local shops, restaurants, a weekly open air market, inns and an adjacent Sainsbury's store. The town also provides a station (Waterloo Line), M&S, Waitrose, Aldi and Iceland stores, fitness clubs and a sports centre. Between the house and the town centre, you will find Alton FE College, Amery Hill Senior School and St Lawrence Primary School. Backing on to the lightly wooded borders of Old Odiham Road, this road enables the house to have access to Alton Golf Club and the B3349 leading to the M3 junction 5.
