Description
Updated by the current owner, this deceptively spacious top-floor flat offers panoramic views back across Andover to the west. The property benefits from a tranquil location on the southern edge of the town plus its parking space in front of a garage. Well presented throughout, the accommodation comprises a hallway, an expansive living/dining room, a recently fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a shower room also recently installed. The property also has a lockable store located on the ground floor and access to a communal garden area.
Location
Andover offers 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. Shepherds Row links Micheldever Road with Bell Road, both accessed via London Road on the south-eastern side of Andover, with the location occupying an elevated position. The location offers good access to the town centre, local schools catering for all age groups, along with the nearby historic Ladies Walk giving footpath access to open countryside, Harewood Forest and the Test Valley villages of Wherwell and Chilbolton, plus the nearby town of Stockbridge, offering an abundance of independent specialist shops, tearooms, pubs and restaurants, many of which serve local produce.
