Havant Road, Horndean
Guide price £850,000

Tucked away along a private driveway just moments from the heart of Horndean village centre, this individual Arts & Crafts detached residence sits proudly within a generous plot of approximately 0.4 of an acre, offering a rare blend of character, privacy and future potential.

Approached via a gated entrance, the property immediately impresses with a substantial driveway providing extensive parking alongside a detached garage, all framed by mature boundaries and a beautifully open, south-facing garden.

Internally, the home has been thoughtfully and sympathetically modernised, retaining its original charm while introducing the comforts expected of modern family living. A large and welcoming entrance hallway sets the tone, with warm wood finishes and an abundance of natural light creating an inviting first impression. The dual aspect sitting room is a particularly appealing space, featuring a character fireplace and views across the garden, perfect for both relaxing and entertaining.

At the heart of the home is the stunning open-plan kitchen and dining room, a superb sociable space designed for modern living. The kitchen combines traditional styling with high-quality finishes, complemented by ample work surfaces and direct access to the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. A separate utility room and cloakroom add practicality and convenience to the ground floor layout.

Upstairs, the first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying pleasant outlooks, along with a family bathroom. The layout provides flexibility for growing families or those seeking additional workspace.

Externally, the gardens are a standout feature, enjoying a desirable southerly aspect. The expansive lawn is ideal for families, entertaining or simply enjoying the surroundings, while also presenting exciting potential for further landscaping.

A particularly noteworthy addition is the detached garden room with vaulted ceiling, a versatile space currently suited to a variety of uses such as a home office, gym, studio, bar or ‘man cave’, and offering clear potential for annexe conversion subject to the necessary consents.

In addition, the property includes the remains of a former outdoor swimming pool, currently unused, which offers excellent scope for reinstatement or redesign depending on the new owner’s vision.

Overall, this is a home that not only delivers immediate lifestyle appeal but also presents significant opportunity for extension or enhancement (subject to planning), making it an ideal long-term family purchase in a highly regarded and convenient location.
