Upper Northam Drive, Hedge End, Southampton, Hampshire, SO30

This contemporary five-bedroom detached residence occupies a delightful position affording much privacy, with a plot measuring 0.24 acres and boasting its own outdoor swimming pool. The property has undergone substantial redevelopment to create a wonderfully social and naturally bright home. The ground floor perfectly facilitates modern living with a suite of versatile reception rooms comprising a cosy living room to the front of the home with a feature bay window, offering the ideal place to retreat to away from the open-plan living; a separate study - perfect for hybrid workers; a dining hall which is currently utilised as a games room; and a sizeable sitting room opposite. To the rear of the property, lies the fabulous family hub incorporating a large well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room which flows through seamlessly to the family room, with beautiful bi-folding doors opening out to the sunny raised decking area. Accessible from either the garden or via the garage, the home also enjoys a separate snug/utility room with an adjoining office space and a ground floor shower room, which is the perfect space for guests to stay, offering a private space away from the main living accommodation. The first floor continues to impress with five well-proportioned bedrooms; the principal bedroom enjoying its own en-suite shower room and walk-in dressing room, with bedroom two also benefitting from a walk-in wardrobe. The fully-tiled family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Externally, the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a section of decking creating the perfect spot for al fresco dining or a tranquil place to sit and enjoy the sun. The garden also hosts an outdoor swimming pool with a changing room ideally positioned at one end of the pool. To the front of the home an integral garage can be found along with a driveway, enabling a wealth of off-road parking and a front garden hosting various trees, shrubs and an area of lawn.
