5 bed detached house for sale

Fleet End Road, Warsash SO31

Set back from a quiet stretch of Fleet End Road, with Warsash Common directly opposite, this substantial five-bedroom detached home offers something that's quite difficult to find. A peaceful, nature-filled setting that still puts you within easy reach of everything the village has to offer. Deer, badgers and a wonderful array of wildlife are regular visitors to the common, and with very little passing traffic, the setting feels more like a rural retreat than a village address.

The heart of the home is the kitchen, refitted in 2021 and finished to an excellent standard. Sage-grey shaker-style cabinetry sits beneath quartz-effect worktops, with a full suite of integrated Neff appliances including an induction hob, hide-and-slide oven and combination oven-microwave. Dual-aspect windows flood the space with natural light and frame a lovely outlook over the rear garden, with a practical utility room leading off to one side to keep the kitchen itself clear and well-organised. The dining room sits alongside, providing a dedicated space for family meals and entertaining.

The lounge is an impressive room, just under 22 feet in length, dual-aspect and filled with natural light, centred around a gas feature fireplace that gives the space real warmth and character. A separate family room sits adjacent, offering that all-important second space that busy family life tends to demand, whether as a snug for children or a second sitting room. At the rear, the Victorian-style conservatory is a real highlight. It’s bright and airy with a vaulted glazed roof and windows on multiple sides, it also looks out over the garden and is the kind of space that gets used year-round.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is generously proportioned with a lovely outlook over the rear garden and the wooded backdrop beyond. The four-piece en-suite features a separate bath and shower cubicle. The family shower room has been recently renovated by the current owners to a smart, modern finish with dark slate-style vanity units, large-format tiling, a walk-in shower and a heated towel rail. Of the remaining bedrooms, two are well-sized doubles, with a further small double and a single.

Outside, the gardens have been designed with flexibility and sunshine in mind. The rear garden is private with a triangular layout that catches the morning sun. At the front, large double gates can be closed to create an outdoor space that enjoys the afternoon and evening light, a feature that makes the most of the south-facing aspect. The double garage has an electric roller door with a useful rear access door into the garden, and the driveway comfortably accommodates several cars.

Warsash itself is a charming village with independent shops, cafes, pubs and a strong community feel. The River Hamble is on the doorstep with miles of waterside walks, and the beach is just a short distance away. Locks Heath Shopping Village, with a Waitrose, is close by, Hook-with-Warsash C of E Academy is well-regarded for younger children, and the M27 provides easy access to Southampton, Portsmouth and beyond. For a home of this size, in a setting this peaceful, Fleet End Road is well worth a look. We'd love to show you around.
