Property Details
DESCRIPTION
A detached family house, constructed of mainly brick and tile clad elevations beneath a mainly interlocking tiled roof, with an attractive rear garden backing onto countryside together with a substantial brick and flint barn with two storeys (about 38’6” x 18’0”) which has been used by the current owners in part as a garage and also for storage. The house provides spacious accommodation including a large reception hall, a good sized living room with open fireplace, a separate dining room, a study/office with bay window enjoying views over the rear garden, a kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining utility room. To the first floor there is a master bedroom suite with en suite bathroom and dressing room (which could also provide an ideal nursery/bedroom four), two further good sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. The detached barn provides great scope and potential for further uses (subject to planning permission) if required. It would be ideal for those who require a large indoor space for hobbies, storage, or possibly for conversion for those working from home or who require further ancillary accommodation to the main house, eg an annexe (subject to change of use and the necessary planning permission). The property enjoys the benefit of oil fired central heating by radiators.
Agent’s Notes: There will be an uplift clause applied to any future development of the barn as a separate dwelling. (Main picture taken in 2007).
LOCATION
The property is situated in the village of Hurstbourne Tarrant which has a Post Office/store, church, primary school, garage/petrol station and public house.

Andover also has a mainline railway station providing services to London (Waterloo is approximately one hour), and the A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London via the M3 and the West Country.
