After passing the Wheelwrights Arms on the right, take the next right turning onto Bellair Road. View more View less Built in the early 1930s and standing in one of Havant's premier roads, this unique home offers its next resident family a spacious and stylish home. Recent works have been carried out with a great deal of consideration to the period of the property. Whilst the kitchen and bathrooms are newly fitted, their designs are tastefully in keeping with the true character of the house as is the leaded-light windows with shutters, wood-panelled walls in the hallway and stripped floorboards.With about 2322 sq. ft. there is ample room for a growing family, with flexible accommodation. Whether the requirement is for three bedrooms and four reception rooms, or for five bedrooms and two reception rooms, the layout of the accommodation would suit either.Situated just to the southern outskirts of the town centre, all amenities are within a short stroll, as is the mainline railway station with regular services to London in about 1 hr 20 mins. Road communications are excellent with access to the M27 south-coast road and the A3 to London within a few minutes of the property. Being within a short distance of the coast, there are many opportunities for family leisure pursuits such as surfing and sailing, with several excellent sailing clubs in the area, or just lazy sunny days at the beach. A reasonable drive takes you to the vast open spaces of The South Downs National Park and the well-established Warblington Lawn Tennis Club is close by. STEP INSIDEStep through the front door, with its leaded light windows, into the roomy hallway and you immediately have a flavour of the clever styling of the interior. Warm tones have been used throughout the ground floor, and they work very well within this 1930s setting.The Sitting Room is situated at the rear of the house. A feature wall with custom-made cabinets, inset wood-burning stove and built-in wood store create a backdrop to this large but cosy space. This feels like a room you would want to be in on a cold winters night, whilst the large doors into the garden will transform it in the warmer months. From here a door leads through to the Study with patio doors leading onto a quiet corner of the garden, making this an ideal spot to work from home. The Kitchen/Dining Room is, as expected, the hub of the home. This area is well-designed to take full advantage of the outdoors. Wall-to-wall windows and a large roof lantern over the dining area allow for a great deal of natural light to flow in, and views over the garden throughout all the seasons.The kitchen area is well fitted with an excellent range of tonal light and dark blue wooden units, complimented by Oak open-display shelving and light granite work-tops. There is a corner pantry, full height sliding storage cupboards, pan drawers and ample wall and base storage units. A central island houses the Neff electric hob whilst the ovens are set within a tower unit. Adjoining the central island is an Oak breakfast bar with storage and wine cooler below. There are two additional reception rooms currently used as bedrooms, ideal for guests or dependant relatives as they benefit from the recently refitted ground-floor Shower Room. Their use can be flexible in accordance with needs. The next resident family may have a wish/need for a kids playroom or teenagers den or another home work space.At the end of an inner hallway, is the Utility Room with a good range of built in wooden units with an Oak worktop and plumbing for appliances below. From here a door leads onto a paved area and to the garden beyond. To the other side of the inner hallway is the converted garage, now is use as a personal studio. This area offers many option for use, again dependent upon personal needs and wishes.Rising to the upper floor, the Main Bedroom enjoys a double aspect and is a large bright space, and with stripped and whitewashed floorboards there is a charming Scandi feel here. To one end is a bank of mirrored built in robes and a corner washbasin area. Bedroom 2 & 3 are both generous in proportions, with fitted robes. The Family Bathroom, with lower wood-panelling to the walls, has both a bath and a large shower cubicle.STEP OUTSIDETo the front is a large gravelled driveway allowing parking for 3 cars. Adjoining, is a lawned area with a shrub border and side gate giving access to the back of the house.To the rear, there is an expanse of lawn with borders of mixed mature trees and shrubbery, enclosed by close-boarded fencing. A raised decked terrace adjoins, and can be accessed from, the kitchen/breakfast room. A second paved patio area adjoins the sitting room and the study, whilst to the other side is a further large paved area which leads round to the utility room. There is a wooden shed and wood stores to both the front and rear of the house.Additional Information:
