3 Bedroom Semi Detached House, Drake Close, Ringwood, BH24

A well presented three bedroom semi detached home offering a practical layout, excellent storage, generous parking and a south facing rear garden, with several features that give the house real character.

A UPVC entrance porch provides a useful arrival space, with glazed windows to the front and wood effect laminate flooring that continues through into the main living accommodation.

Beyond, the lounge and dining room form one open plan space with plenty of room for both sofas and a dining table and chairs. A front aspect window brings natural light into the room, while the dining area looks towards the rear garden. The woodburning stove with its oak mantle creates a natural focal point, complemented by a feature media wall with alcoves for the television.

A glazed timber door leads through to the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of base cupboards and drawers together with matching wall mounted cabinets. There is a breakfast bar for more informal dining, an integrated electric oven, four ring ceramic hob with extractor above and a composite sink with draining board positioned beneath the rear aspect window overlooking the garden. Further space is provided for an upright fridge freezer and washing machine.

A half glazed side door from the kitchen opens onto the side of the house, giving convenient access between the front and rear gardens.

Upstairs, the landing leads to all three bedrooms and the family bathroom, with two useful built in storage cupboards. One incorporates slatted shelving, while the second is a deeper storage cupboard with a side aspect opaque window. There is also access to the loft from the landing.

Bedroom one is a large double room positioned at the front of the house, complete with a built in double wardrobe.

Bedroom two is another double bedroom, this time overlooking the rear garden, with a built in wardrobe and additional high level storage cupboards.

Bedroom three is also a double room and benefits from a built in double wardrobe, high level cupboard storage and a front aspect window, making this a particularly versatile third bedroom.

The family bathroom comprises a panelled bath, WC, pedestal wash basin and chrome heated towel rail, with a rear aspect opaque window.

Outside, the south facing rear garden provides an appealing extension of the living space. A patio sits immediately behind the house, creating an obvious spot for outdoor dining and entertaining during the warmer months. Sleeper steps rise to a raised lawn bordered by established flowers and shrubs, while gated side access leads back towards the front of the property.

To the front, a tarmac driveway with block paved edging provides off road parking for approximately three vehicles and leads to a single garage with an up and over door. In addition, there is a further area positioned in front of the driveway which provides useful additional parking for visitors.
