This is a great home to appeal to families looking for a village lifestyle but within reach of a host of city amenities and excellent schools for all ages. Positioned in a tucked away location in Littleton, residents can take advantage of the wide range of active sports clubs based around the village hall and the recreation ground, and socialise at the popular Running Horse. Winchester is less than two miles from Littleton and it is an easy run to the train station for those who need to commute.

Nearby Sparsholt primary school has been rated as outstanding, with the secondary schools in Winchester and Peter Symonds sixth form college all hugely popular and easily accessible from here, adding to the appeal of the village.

An open plan garden sets this detached house back from the quiet close and there is good parking in front of the double garage.

The bright interior decoration enhances the abundance of natural light throughout the house and the accommodation radiates from a spacious entrance hall from where stairs rise to the first floor landing.

The kitchen is very well fitted and has a designated breakfast area with sliding doors to a superb conservatory which combine to create a family living space, leaving the separate sitting room at the other end of the house as a quiet haven. There is also a dining room for formal occasions with a bay window overlooking the rear garden, and a useful study at the front of the house.

Four double bedrooms are arranged over the first floor with a further box room ideal as a second study or nursery. The family bathroom and the en suite to the master are both spacious with a bath and separate shower in the family bathroom.

A very attractive garden lies to the rear of the house which is peaceful and not overlooked, with mature shrubs bordering the shaped lawn and a paved terrace accessed from the conservatory and the sitting room.
