Colden Common, Winchester, SO21

The Property:
Hollytree Cottages has been cleverly modernised by the current owners to create a lovely family home that would also work well for downsizers who still want a generous amount of outside space. The front door opens to a convenient entrance hall, leading round to the rest of the accommodation. A large reception room with a stylish woodburner sits to the front of the property. Due to the room's layout, this space works so well as a playroom as well as a cosy place to relax. A conservatory is accessed from this room and currently works well as a utility space. A downstairs family bathroom sits in the middle of the property and the bright kitchen diner at the rear has large doors leading to the garden. Upstairs comprises the principal double bedroom with ensuite shower room, two further bedrooms which are so bright, plus the study which could serve as bedroom four if required. Externally, the garden really is impressive in size and the potential it offers. The current owners have created an outside seating area with raised beds to the side close to the house, ideal for alfresco entertaining. The rest of the garden is largely laid to lawn and divided by another section which features a large summer house. The owners currently use this for parties, it also works well just as extra storage but could be elevated further to serve as a studio/office if required. To the front is a driveway with parking for two vehicles as well as side access to the garden.
