3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Calico Street, Andover SP11

Description
Constructed as recently as 2020, this well-presented, modern, three-bedroomed, semi-detached house would make the perfect first purchase. The property benefits from an excellent location close to schools, local amenities and open countryside, plus enhancements undertaken by the current owners, along with driveway parking which includes an EV charging point. The accommodation comprises an entrance hallway, a sitting room, a cloakroom, a kitchen/dining room, a master bedroom suite, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. Outside, there are attractive, practical, low-maintenance gardens to both front and rear.

Location
Andover's town facilities are close by and offer a range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities, including a college of further education, a cinema, theatre and leisure centre. The mainline railway station runs a direct route to London's Waterloo in just over an hour, whilst the nearby A303 offers good road access to both London and the West Country. Calico Street links with both Merino Road and Chambray Road just off Smannell Road on the Saxon Heights development and has proximity to local amenities including schools, various retail outlets, supermarkets, a pharmacy, medical centre and a convenience store, whilst Anton Lakes Nature Reserve and Finkley Down Farm Park are also close by. The development borders open countryside and the nearby villages of Smannell, with its public house, and Enham Alamein, which has a village shop and a post office, are both less than a mile away.

Outside
The property frontage includes and attractive front garden with an area of lawn with mature shrub borders and a block paved driveway with parking for at least two vehicles and gated access into the rear garden.
