Highland Road, Colehill

Property Description
A rare opportunity to acquire an imposing family home which has been within the same family for over 60 years. Positioned on the southerly side of Highland Road, the home boasts far reaching views towards the Isle of Wight, as well as The Purbecks, from a secluded position at the head of a private driveway and, in our opinion, the home boasts scope to extend, as well as offering potential for development (STPP).
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and comprises a spacious entrance hall, two reception rooms, a conservatory overlooking the rear garden, a generous study which could also be utilised as a fifth bedroom, a kitchen, shower room, separate WC and utility room on the ground floor. On the first floor, there are four bedrooms served by a family bathroom.
The property is partly double glazed and benefits from heating via an air source heat pump, together with photovoltaic panels.
Gardens and Grounds
The plot has a regular rectangular shape about it and extends to a little over 1/4 acre with the southerly boundary facing onto the adjoining Wesley Road which has gated pedestrian access. Vehicular access is gained from the North via a secluded driveway and there is forecourt parking for several vehicles which in turn gives access to the generous attached double garage. The property adjoins the rear boundary and the gardens have a southerly aspect being predominantly laid to lawn. There are a variety of hedges, mature shrubs and borders.
