5 bed detached house for sale

Hocombe Road, Chandler's Ford SO53

For sale for the first time since 1970, a much-loved detached family home located on one of Chandler’s Ford’s premier roads

Opportunities like this are seldom available, especially in this location. Whilst No.3 has been a cherished home for a large family, it offers glorious potential to extend and re-design to one's own preferences, subject to first obtaining the necessary consents. In recent years, many houses in the vicinity have undergone significant investment and improvement increasing demand for properties like this. The house is now being sold with no onward chain making a prompt move possible.

The property itself is set back nicely from the road whilst facing the woodlands of Cranbury Park and occupies an extremely attractive 0.65 acre plot which includes a substantial driveway. The garden to the rear faces south west therefore benefitting from fantastic light and offering excellent opportunity for outdoor entertaining.

There is substantial accommodation including five bedrooms, four reception rooms, kitchen, breakfast/utility room and two bathrooms along with a number of outdoor buildings and a garage. Whilst being a generous size it offers the opportunity for personalised adaptation or extension to create a wonderful family home.

Hocombe Road, facing the woodlands of Cranbury Park, is one of the premier roads in Chandler's Ford, a thriving community located midway between Winchester and Southampton. The M3 and M27, Southampton Airport and the south coast ports provide easy access to transport networks, and London Waterloo can be reached in 57 minutes from Winchester by rail. Outdoor leisure pursuits are provided for with The Solent, South Downs National Park and The New Forest nearby. Local catchment schools include Chandler's Ford Infant School, Merdon Junior School and Thornden School. Independent schools include Sherbourne House, The Pilgrims’ School, Princes Mead, Twyford School, St Swithun’s School and Winchester College.
