This is a rare opportunity to acquire a semi-detached one-bedroom bungalow offering excellent potential for modernisation, creating an easily managed home within this popular development in the sought-after village of Everton.
The village benefits from a well-regarded general store and sub post office, while the Georgian market town of Lymington is just a short drive away, offering a wide range of shops, restaurants and community facilities.
The coastal village of Milford on Sea, with its charming village green and beach, lies approximately one mile to the south.
The property is approached via a small enclosed front garden with a pathway leading to the front door. This opens into a reception hallway with a useful double storage cupboard. A glazed door leads through to the sitting/dining room, a pleasant living space featuring a raised bay window overlooking the front garden.
From the sitting room, access is provided to the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of units but would now benefit from complete refurbishment, offering an excellent opportunity to update to modern tastes. The kitchen leads through to a conservatory, a useful additional reception space providing further living accommodation and opening directly onto the rear garden.
The property offers a good-sized double bedroom with built-in wardrobe cupboard and additional storage/airing cupboard. There is also a shower room fitted with a fully tiled shower cubicle, wash basin and WC.
Outside, the rear garden has been designed for ease of maintenance, being predominantly paved with established planted beds. The garden also provides direct access to the garage, which is fitted with an up-and-over door.
