It’s all very easy to beat about the bust when it comes to choosing your next home.

Do you want modern, do you want space, do you want convenient access to local facilities, do you actually want to move? The answer to all is hopefully yes, in which case you should be looking at a property in Mulberry Avenue at East Cosham.

It’s difficult to think of a better family base, believes Colin Shairp, of Town and Country Southern estate agents. The cul-de-sac location means it’s tucked away in a quiet spot yet it’s close to shops in Havant Road at Drayton and in Cosham High Street with excellent local schools thrown into the equation for good measure.

The house has a large central hallway separating the garage and shower room on one side from the sitting and dining rooms on the other. These latter two form a large living space interconnecting through double doors with patio doors in the dining room then opening into a conservatory. There’s also a well-proportioned kitchen to one side of the rear of the house.

The first floor has four good-sized bedrooms, all with the convenience of built-in wardrobe space. There’s also a family bathroom with both a bath and corner shower cubicle.

At the rear, the garden is enhanced by a brick patio with a ramp to one side and directly accessible from the kitchen and conservatory. There’s a pergola and barbecue plus a winning feature – a home office at the bottom of the garden that means, despite the ready access to commuting routes – this is the perfect place for those who want to avoid the daily grind.

Offers are invited in excess of £465,000 (EPC Band D). For more information, contact Town and Country Southern on 023 93 277 288 or email sales@townandcountrysouthern.co.uk
