Firgrove House, Hundred Acres Road, Wickham, Hants, Wickham

A spacious detached dwelling set in attractive grounds with extensive count

Price Guide: £ 895000

Spacious Detached Property with detached one bedroom AnnexFirgrove house was believed to have been constructed in the latter part of the 1940s with later substantial extensions to now provide a spacious family dwelling. It stands in large attractive gardens of approximately one acre* and benefits from extensive views of the surrounding countryside. It is in the popular semi rural location of Hundred Acres which is close to the Forest of Bere and approximately two miles from the historic village of Wickham which offers all local amenities. The property also has the benefit of an annexe which has recently been constructed and this could be used as a guest suite or an office if so required. It is a rare opportunity to be able to acquire a property of this calibre in this location so viewing is highly recommended.
