Workmans Lane, Warsash SO31

Double electric gates open up to reveal this stunning cottage with a large sweeping driveway leading to the main house and triple garage. Originally two Victorian workman cottages for the Hook Estate were joined together in 1946. The existing owner who has resided in the property for 23 years, has meticulously extended and improved throughout to create a perfect family home.
The ground floor offers a luxurious and spacious living environment. Boasting an elegant drawing room with Inglenook fireplace, a sophisticated formal dining room, a snug and the tranquillity of the light filled sunroom overlooking the courtyard. The downstairs further benefits from a guest bedroom serviced by its own fully equipped shower room. Also on the ground floor, the kitchen is beautifully designed by Neptune and features an atrium which bathes the space in natural light. The bi-folding doors in this room overlook the rear garden and showcase the outdoor heated swimming pool, surrounded by flagstone patio. The kitchen benefits from beautifully designed cabinetry with integrated appliances, as well as a large island incorporating an extensive range of drawers, cupboards and butler sinks. A large AGA and an additional electric oven ensure this space delivers a first class environment for entertaining.
Upstairs you will find four double bedrooms. The master suite is a fabulous space incorporating the master-ensuite, the walk-in wardrobe with extensive range of hanging and shelving space, as well as the air conditioned master bedroom featuring a bathing area with a Drummond Wye roll top bath and centralised taps, perfectly positioned in front of the balcony overlooking the front garden and stunning water views.
Outside you can enjoy the extensive gardens adorned with mature trees and shrubbery which create a serene and outdoor oasis. The flagstone patio area houses the heated swimming pool. Picket fences and pathways lead you around the meticulously maintained gardens to the various well thought out outbuildings. There is a large expanse of lawned area plus a secluded courtyard perfect for catching the evening sun.
Away from the main cottage, the outbuildings provide the perfect set-up for a designated home office and a gymnasium. A designated pool room offers a convenient changing and shower area to service the poolside. And with the added benefit of a triple garage / workshop you will not be short of storage space. Above the garage is a wonderful games room equipped with a bar, another perfect spot for entertaining family and friends.
This delightful cottage has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, ensuring it is move-in ready.
