Botley Road, Fair Oak, Eastleigh

Stanford Estate Agents are proud to offer to the market a property well known amongst locals, with a history dating back to 1730 where the site served as the original stables for the village. The property has undergone considerable renovation and now finely balances its rich history with a modern twist.

The accommodation spans nearly 1400 square foot over two floors on an ideally sized plot within a small, private development which still maintains easy access to the village centre and its array of amenities including a post office, convenience shops, a chemist and butchers.

The ground floor offers versatile accommodation consisting of a useful cloakroom with WC facilities, a ground floor bedroom and a separate home office/study. The living accommodation comes with a beautiful feature: a large inglenook fireplace with a cast iron hearth plate of a horse in front of a giant oak, further paying homage to the history of this bespoke property. Just off the lounge is an ideal snug/dining room and finishing the ground floor is a new Wren kitchen with a range of wall and base units with marble tops, integrated appliances to include dishwasher, fridge/freezer and induction hob. The first floor has new carpets throughout and offers three great sized double bedrooms with the principal bedroom benefitting further from built in wardrobes and modern, three piece ensuite facilities. The remaining bedrooms are serviced via the family bathroom.

Externally, the property is located within a small and exclusive gated development off Botley Road. This particular property has an enviable degree of privacy and sits with mature shrubs surrounding, with steps leading down to the front door. The rear garden wraps around the rear of the house into two sections, both mostly laid to lawn with an array of mature shrubs and planted trees. A patio area sits directly outside the exit from the kitchen with a purpose built all weather covering. Off road parking comes in the form of an allocated space and oak framed car port with accessible mezzanine/loft space above for further storage.

The property has undergone an array of meaningful upgrades and improvements over the last three years including but not limited to, a new slate roof and beams with 8 embedded solar panels; a 6.7kw battery and inverter stored securely in the loft; new windows and doors, new flooring, and parts of the home have had new damp proof coursing with a 10 year guarantee.
