Smannell, Andover, SP11 6JL

Welcome to The Hawthorns, a detached family home that, in our opinion, has been extended and thoroughly modernised by the current owners to the highest standards and provides driveway parking for up to six cars. The property occupies a plot of over one-fifth of an acre and backs onto open farmland. External features include a wrap around slate patio area, a gazebo suitable for outdoor entertaining and an integral double garage with an electric roller door.

The internal accommodation includes a reception hall, cloakroom, a dual-aspect living room with open fireplace, a separate sitting or playroom, a study, and a open-plan kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining living and dining areas. The bespoke painted wooden kitchen includes a selection of wall hung and base level soft close units, with a range of Bosch and Neff integrated appliances and granite worktops. Bifold glazed doors from this kitchen space as well as the living room open to the main patio area. There is also a separate matching utility room with integrated appliances and granite worktops.

The first floor is accessible via two staircases. The main section includes four double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom providing an en suite shower-room with his-and-hers wash basins. A separate family shower room serves the remaining bedrooms. A second staircase, accessed from the kitchen area, leads to a guest bedroom suite with its own en suite bathroom, including a free standing bath overlooking the rear garden.

Externally, the south-easterly facing rear garden maximises sunlight hours, and provides both lawn and patio space, with plenty of room for garden furniture. A gated gravel driveway provides generous parking space, with a double garage for further parking or storage options.

Located in the picturesque village of Smannell on the edge of Andover, the property enjoys a peaceful semi-rural setting. This home is within reach of Andover town, providing access to local amenities and transport links, such as Andover train station with regular services to London, and the A303. With a balance of comfortable receptions rooms, modern bathrooms and generous outdoor space, this home may be ideal for families looking for a stylish home in a well-connected yet peaceful setting.
