2 bedroom house

A detached 2-bedroom bungalow requiring modernisation and with scope to extend (stpp) set in approximately 0.28 acre in a peaceful rural location to the north-west of the town. NO ONWARD CHAIN.

A detached bungalow believed to date from the 1920s, quietly and discreetly located in a mature garden plot of approximately 0.28 acres in a peaceful semi-rural position mid-way between Fordingbridge and Whitsbury. The bungalow is now in need of comprehensive refurbishment and offers scope for enlargement, subject to securing all relevant planning consent(s). The bungalow is being sold with the benefit of no onward chain.

The rural hamlet of Brookheath is located almost equidistant between the picturesque Downland village of Whitsbury - one of a cluster of pretty communities set within rolling chalk downland countryside - and the Avonside town of Fordingbridge. Whitsbury is home to a community steeped in the heritage and success of the local racehorse stables and stud, and is further buoyed by the presence of a popular public house, village hall and church. The Avonside town of Fordingbridge (approx. 1.5 miles) has a range of educational, health and recreational services sufficient to cater for most everyday needs, including reputable schools, a range of shops, a health centre and leisure/sporting facilities.

The local road network draws the regional centres of Salisbury, Bournemouth and Southampton within daily commuting distance; all can provide mainline rail services to London (Waterloo) and there are international airports at Bournemouth and Southampton. For those who enjoy outdoor pursuits, there is a choice of local footpaths to explore the surrounding countryside and nearby Whitsbury Down provides a glorious setting for walking and riding enthusiasts. The New Forest National Park lies approximately 3 miles to the east and provides thousands of acres of unspoiled moor, heath and woodland.

A gravelled driveway leads to an attached car port and provides parking space for several vehicles. There is pedestrian access to both the front and rear gardens that are primarily laid to lawn interspersed with mature fruit trees in the rear section of garden that runs on a shallow gradient to an attractive woodland backdrop. Within the garden is a sizeable garden shed.
