The Avenue, Petersfield, Hampshire, GU31

On arguably one of the best roads in town centre, a detached family home with gardens, garage and parking.

The property is a detached family home, built by a local architect and we believe is only the second time it has ever come to the market. Built with upper part tile-hung and lower brick elevations, under a tiled roof, the property benefits from large windows allowing light to flow through the accommodation. The layout can be seen in the floorplan but of particular note is the spacious, high vaulted room to the rear which the owner used as an artist studio. The main reception room is to the front of the house and has its own fireplace and there's a second reception room to the rear with doors leading outside. The kitchen/dining area has an Aga which is a local focal point, no matter the season. From the hall is a downstairs toilet and separate shower room. The stairs rise to the first floor landing to access the four bedrooms, shower room and bathroom. The main bedroom has a south-facing balcony which has a delightful open aspect. Outside, the house is approached by a drive with ample parking leading to an attached single garage. The garden is well established with apple trees, a variety of mature hedging and trees and wraps around the house. There is a sunny terrace to the side accessed from the kitchen, with a front lawn and a further terrace and garden at the back of the house. Above the upper floor is an extensive attic, the width of the house with a good head height and dormer window to the front. Subject to the usual consents, there may be the possibility of further improvements and alterations to create further living accommodation. Properties in such a prime position rarely become available and an internal viewing is strongly recommended.

The property is situated in one of Petersfield's most favoured roads and within 250 metres of both The Heath and High Street. Petersfield is situated in the heart of The South Downs National Park and offers a variety of amenities in a bustling town centre. Shops include Waitrose, M&S Food, Tesco and there are numerous boutiques, cafes and further shops. The train station provides a direct service to London Waterloo to the north (in approximately an hour) and Portsmouth to the south. The town has many active clubs and societies with golf available at Petersfield and Liphook, horse and motor racing at Goodwood, The Festival Theatre in Chichester, polo at Cowdray Park and sailing along the South Coast. There are many popular schools in the area including Churcher’s College, Bedales, Ditcham Park and The Petersfield School.
