Church Lane, Goodworth Clatford, Andover, Hampshire, Sp11

A large detached five double bedroom family house that has been stylishly modernised throughout and provides excellent light and airy accommodation, standing in a large private plot with attractively landscaped gardens

An extended detached individual house built in the 1970s which has been completely remodelled and tastefully modernised by the present owner to take advantage of its attractive setting within this popular village. The plot extends to about 0.35 acres. To the front of the house there is comprehensive off-road parking and a large detached double garage. The main rear garden has the benefit of a south easterly aspect as well as great privacy. This features a large terrace and gazebo area, good sized level lawn, well-stocked beds and an attractive brick and flint hut at the rear boundary which could be converted to a home office. The spacious accommodation is light and airy throughout and flows well for family life and entertaining.

The property is situated in the heart of the sought after village of Goodworth Clatford, with its renowned riverside walks. The village has a Post Office/store, church, primary school, village hall, two public houses and an active tennis club. There is also an 18 hole golf course and large garden centre nearby, as well as the renowned Longstock Water Gardens (owned by the John Lewis Partnership) with its barn style farm shop and tea rooms. Andover, about two miles distant, offers a more comprehensive range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities, as well as a mainline railway station providing fast services to Waterloo in just over the hour. The A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London and the West Country and the picturesque town of Stockbridge, traversed by the celebrated River Test, is approximately five miles away to the south. The cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury are both within 30 minutes’ drive.
