4 bed detached house for sale

The Firs, South Road, Alresford SO24

A well-proportioned, classic Victorian house with high ceilings, generous room sizes and period features.

The Firs is hidden from the road, being discretely set back on its own private 0.28 acre plot, with gardens wrapping around the house. There is considerable scope to modernise the property to your own design, with the large plot allowing ample space to extend to the side and rear, subject to planning permission. The property is offered for sale with the benefit of no onward chain.

The house is approached from South Road, with a driveway leading to a garage and parking area. A path leads to the front door, which opens to the entrance hall, from where stairs go up to the first floor. The sitting room spans the depth of the house, with a fireplace and doors to the front garden. The dining room is located on the other side of the hallway, with a bay window overlooking the garden and a hatch to the kitchen. The kitchen has a range of storage units and drawers, with worktops above. A door opens to a conservatory and the rear of the house.

Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms and a bathroom. A loft hatch on the landing leads up to the loft, where there is potential space for a loft conversion to add additional space.

The private and secluded garden wraps around the house, and is mainly laid to lawn, with mature planting, flower/shrub borders and some trees.
