"Attractively combining a sheltered southerly rear aspect and an end of cul-de-sac location, an enlarged 1988 Bryant Homes built detached house affording 4 bedrooms, a conservatory, utility room and off road accommodation for 3 cars.
Description
The house occupies a well regarded location within the Saxon Meadows area South of the town, often known as the Racecourse so called due to the road names. The dining kitchen, conservatory and utility room along with bedrooms 2 and 3 enjoy the sunny aspect over the rear garden with the plot progressively widening to the rear and designed for not only lower upkeep but also visual effect. Renowned for its popular appeal, this Bryant home has been upgraded and extended over the years and now provides uPVC double glazing with trickle vents, an excellent refitted bathroom to contemporary standards, a replacement gas condensing boiler to the heating system with most radiators incorporating thermostatic valves, and cavity wall insulation. Thus a comfortable and convenient atmosphere is created. Additionally, there are panelled internal doors to the upstairs rooms with the majority downstairs being of a glazed design.
Location
The property is set towards the end of Goodwood Close, a twin branched cul-de-sac incorporating a footpath enabling a shortcut to Alton town centre via Mount Pleasant Road. The close consists of a varying array of different styled and sized detached houses with a small green lying towards the elevated southerly country outskirts of Alton. The house also has access to country walks with a further network of footpaths leading to other parts of the town. The South West corner of Alton also has The Butts, an historic green and also the venue of the Jane Austen connected annual Victorian Cricket Contest, The Butts Primary School, Alton Sports Centre, Chawton Park Doctors Surgery, The French Horn Inn and Jubilee playing fields. In the best traditions of a country town, Alton retains weekly and farmers open air market events and provides family and multiple shops (High Street within 0.8 mile drive) including Boots, Iceland, M&S, Sainsbury's and Waitrose stores, senior and Convent schools, Alton College, churches, a station (Waterloo line), fitness clubs and, on the outskirts, two golf courses.
