2 bed bungalow for sale

Jubilee Road, Fordingbridge, Hampshire SP6

A 2-bedroom detached bungalow requiring refurbishment quietly situated in the corner of a popular residential road on the outskirts of the town in grounds of approx. 2.75 acres.

33 Jubilee Road is a detached two-bedroom bungalow occupying a peaceful position in the south-western corner of Jubilee Road. The bungalow is believed to originally date from the 1930s and sits in a mature garden plot of approximately 0.19 acre, with an access track from Jubilee Road running alongside. The bungalow is now in need of comprehensive renovation including removal of the asbestos roof and, subject to securing planning permission, there may be scope for enlargement, particularly given the precedent set by numerous neighbours. To the south of the garden is a further plot of land amounting to some 2.55 acres, of which approximately 2.11 acres is light woodland that extends to the bank of Ashford Water to the south. In general, the land has not been managed and is quite overgrown in places but this represents a rare opportunity to acquire a property offering scope to create a unique family home.

Jubilee Road is located on the Western outskirts of Fordingbridge, approximately 1/2 mile from the town centre. Fordingbridge has an array of local services to cater for everyday needs including a range of shops, a cinema, a building society, a choice of pubs and restaurants, a library and a medical centre. There is reputable schooling at primary and secondary levels in the form of Fordingbridge Infants and Junior school and Burgate Secondary School and Sixth Form.

Fordingbridge is well placed for access to the regional centres of Salisbury, Bournemouth and Southampton. All provide main line rail links to London Waterloo and there are airports at the latter two. Fordingbridge sits within the Avon Valley with a wide variety of opportunities for leisure and recreational activities. The rolling Downland of Cranborne Chase can be found to the west, contrasting with the picturesque heath, moor and woodland of the New Forest National Park to the East. Excellent walking and riding abounds, as do many good opportunities for golf and fishing and there is a tennis club in the village of Sandleheath.

The property is accessed via an unmade track that runs to the side of the bungalow and leads to an off road parking space and the rear garden. The track continues to a field gate that supplies access to the land. There is a pedestrian access via Jubilee Road to the front garden and front door.

The garden is located wholly to the rear of the bungalow and comprises areas of lawn, shrubs and old outbuildings including corrugated and timber sheds and a greenhouse. The garden extends to approximately 0.19 acre.

The garden has an open boundary to the land beyond which extends to approximately 2.55 acres, of which approximately 2.11 acres is light woodland that extends to the bank of Ashford Water to the south. Part of the land is set on a gradient and falls within Flood Zone 3. The remaining 0.4 acres (approx.) closest to the garden is relatively level but overgrown in places. Within the land is a former garage of concrete panel construction.
