Detached house for sale in Main Road, Southbourne, Emsworth PO10

Treagust & Co is pleased to offer the opportunity to acquire this spacious chalet style home, set in extensive grounds of approximately 1.2 acres with outbuildings and planning permission to extend.

This spacious non-estate home is ideally positioned just to the east of the town centre and offers the rare chance to own a home with land so close to amenities, public transport and the harbour.

A five bar gate opens to the generous driveway leading up to the front door. The entrance hall has a large built-in storage cupboard, pine staircase to the first floor, ground floor bathroom, and provides access to the two front ground floor bedrooms; one has an ensuite shower room, and the other is currently used as a reception room with a log burning stove fitted. The formal dining room sits next to the kitchen that is currently in the process of being installed. A double glazed conservatory provides a pleasant outlook over the lawn and connects the generously proportioned sitting room with patio doors to the garden.

On the first floor there is a large landing space suitable as a study area, with shower room and double bedroom. There is access into the loft space with the obvious potential to create an additional bedroom if required.

A new kitchen is also in the process of being installed.
