4 bed detached house for sale

Southleigh Road, Emsworth PO10

A beautifully presented four-bedroom family home which has been the subject of a comprehensive programme of extension and refurbishment, completed to a very high standard throughout.

The property combines the character of a traditional home with modern fittings and finishes, offering well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors, together with a mature rear garden, off-road parking and a substantial detached studio/outbuilding.

Description:

On the ground floor the accommodation is arranged around a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living space with a beautiful bespoke Neptune kitchen with integrated appliances, aga cooker, and butler sink with glazed double doors leading directly to the terrace and gardens beyond. The adjoining snug is centred around a double-sided wood burning stove, also serving the sitting room, and provides additional family living space. To the front of the house is a separate sitting room with bay window and fitted cabinetry around a feature fireplace. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

The detached outbuilding, situated at the end of the garden, is currently arranged as a gym and garden room with kitchenette and shower room, but offers scope for use as additional ancillary accommodation, subject to the necessary consents (this space has previously been used as an annexe to the main house).
