Offered to the market with a complete chain, this rarely available detached bungalow occupies a generous plot believed to extend to approximately 1.28 acres in the highly desirable village of Sherborne St. John, on the outskirts of Basingstoke.
The property offers excellent potential for refurbishment or redevelopment (subject to the usual planning permissions) and presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to create a bespoke family home in a sought-after semi-rural setting.
The existing accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall which leads to a spacious reception room with adjoining conservatory, providing a bright and versatile living space with views over the gardens. There is also a kitchen / dining room with an adjoining sun room, creating a pleasant area for everyday living and entertaining.
The property offers four bedrooms, including a first-floor principal bedroom created via a loft conversion, with additional bedrooms located on the ground floor. There is also a family bathroom and additional cloakroom along with useful storage space.
Externally the property benefits from a large detached double garage and a detached outdoor office / studio, ideal for home working or hobbies. A generous driveway provides extensive off-road parking.
The grounds are a key feature of the property, extending to circa 1.28 acres and offering mature gardens and open space with excellent potential for landscaping or further development subject to planning permission.
The property has evolved over time, with improvements including a loft conversion (1975), bedroom/lounge extension (1981) and kitchen extension (1991) along with the addition of a conservatory and rear porch in 1991. These additions contribute to the generous footprint now available.
The property benefits from mains electricity, mains water and broadband, with heating and services currently in working order according to the seller.
Sherborne St. John is a highly regarded Hampshire village offering a traditional community feel with a village green, pub, church and local schooling, while nearby Basingstoke town centre provides extensive shopping, leisure and transport links. Basingstoke railway station offers direct services to London Waterloo in approximately 45 minutes, and the M3 motorway is easily accessible for commuting.
Properties with plots of this size within such a desirable village setting are rarely available, making this a unique opportunity for buyers seeking space, privacy and long-term potential.
