West Street, Hambledon, PO7

In an elevated spot in the centre of the village, a detached family house with parking, gardens and planning permission to extend.
The property is an attractive, detached family home with brick, part tile-hung and rendered elevations under a tiled roof and accommodation over two floors. The current owners have made many improvements to the house having reworked the downstairs accommodation to create a fantastic open plan kitchen/dining/living space with a fully bespoke design. There is a separate sitting room with a bay window to the front, open fire and a wall of built-in shelves and cupboards as well as a downstairs cloakroom with WC. From the hall, a turning staircase leads to the first floor landing, off which are three bedrooms and a family shower room. Outside, the house is approached by a gravel drive providing ample parking, a rarity in the village, and there are areas of lawn and mature borders. To the rear of the house is a good sized lawn with a path leading to the bottom of the garden where there is a raised terrace, an ideal area for alfresco dining and a modern studio, a fantastic addition for anyone having to work from home. In 2021, planning permission was granted to extend and transform the property creating 4 bedrooms, (two of which will have en suite shower rooms), an additional reception room on the ground floor, doubling the size of the kitchen/dining room along with creating a utility room. Planning has also been granted to construct a detached garage. Ref: SDNP/21/02404/HOUS.
