Introduction
This charming, part-thatched four-bedroom character home is one of the oldest buildings in West End, with the original property built circa 1650 and a later substantial extension added circa 1790. Situated on a gated plot, the property has a private front garden and gravel driveway, a large car port for at least 3 vehicles, a courtyard garden to the rear, and a separate lawned area. Character features include sash windows, beams and feature fireplaces. The accommodation on the ground floor comprises an entrance hall, spacious lounge, kitchen, dining room, utility room, bedroom, and a shower room. On the first floor there are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property also has a partitioned basement, currently used as a hobbies room and study.
Location
The property is situated close to West End village which offers a range of shops and amenities, as well as reputable local schools. The M27 motorway links are easily accessible, as well as railway stations at Hedge End, Bursledon and Botley.
Directions
From Junction 7, M27, proceed west along Charles Watts Way. Upon reaching the roundabout take the 4th exit onto the A27 Moorhill Road. Proceed for approximately 1.5 miles until reaching the traffic lights at the junction with High Street and Chalk Hill. The property is found on the right-hand side, just past the junction.
Inside
The welcoming entrance hall has stairs leading to the first floor, separate stairs leading to the basement, and doors through to all principal rooms. The spacious lounge is positioned at the front of the property with a large window overlooking the grounds, a feature fireplace and fitted shelving in one alcove. The remaining downstairs rooms are positioned at the rear of the property. The dining room has a feature cast-iron fireplace with a door leading into the large, vaulted ceiling kitchen, which is fitted with a range of base and wall units, a glass display cabinet, an Aga and butler sink. The adjoining utility room has plumbing for a washing machine, dish washer, and space for a fridge, freezer and tumble dryer. The fully tiled shower room leads off the utility room and is fitted with a white WC, sink and shower. The downstairs bedroom leads off the dining room and has two high level windows.
Stairs from the hall lead down to the partitioned basement which has been modernised and is currently used as a sewing/hobby room with a separate study.
On the first floor, the good size master bedroom has a window with views to the front of the property. Bedroom two, also positioned at the front, benefits from built-in wardrobes and cupboards, with the remaining bedroom enjoying a feature fireplace, built in wardrobe and views to the rear of the property. The larger than average family bathroom is part paneled and comprises a bath with telephone style shower attachment, wash hand basin, WC and a window to the side.
Outside
Double gates open into a large front garden with gravel drive, a car port with parking for at least 3 vehicles, and a shed. A pathway leads around the side of the property onto the rear paved courtyard and laid to lawn area with log borders and shrubs. Mature trees provide additional privacy.
