Tucked away in a neighborhood with strong community ties, this property is available with no onward chain, facilitating a smoother transition for new owners. The home features three well-proportioned bedrooms along with two separate reception rooms that offer flexibility in use; ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. The fitted kitchen connects seamlessly to a conservatory, creating potential for an open-plan living space that integrates indoor and outdoor environments. A family bathroom serves the upper level, while the property benefits from double glazing and gas central heating—elements that can be enhanced through thoughtful updates. Significant potential lies in the property's layout and outdoor space. The expansive gardens, especially the approximately 100-foot southerly aspect rear garden, provide ample room for landscaping or possible extension projects (subject to planning permissions). Additionally, there is driveway parking for two to three vehicles along with a detached garage, which adds convenience and further enhances storage options. Situated within easy reach of local amenities on Wickham Road, including shops and restaurants, residents will also appreciate the accessibility of public transport links.
