When the owners of this very spacious home at Swanwick Lane purchased the house twelve years ago they had a vision which has now been fully realised. The heart of the home dates back to the 1930s but has been extended and renovated taking full advantage of the position yet not compromising the large south facing gardens.

The house has quite a classic look with elegance and detailing in many rooms, particularly to be seen in the wonderful kitchen which is open plan to a breakfast area and family room complete with a wood burning stove which creates a superb living space.

Across the other side of the reception hall are four reception areas which interlink and are incredibly flexible, depending on lifestyle and with French doors opening to the garden. There is also a large gym and store in the former garage, linked to the house by a utility room and a shower room.

The master bedroom is luxurious in the extreme stretching through some 37 feet from a bay window at the front, passing the en suite shower room, incorporating a dressing area, to a window overlooking the sunny garden. There are two further double rooms, a single bedroom and a bathroom on this floor.

The garden is not overlooked and the peaceful location adds to the feeling of seclusion. Attention has been paid as much to outside as the inside and the landscaping is very attractive, with a row of fir trees about a hundred feet away at the end where there is space for a summer house or home office perhaps. At the front the gated driveway certainly provides plenty of parking.

Lying close to beautiful Swanwick Lakes Nature Reserve and with the Hamble River nearby there are some amazing walks to be enjoyed together with a choice of marinas for those who are drawn to the water. 

Southampton, Portsmouth and the motorway network are all within easy reach with Waterloo accessible in just over an hour from Southampton Airport Parkway station, just a few miles away.
