A DETACHED house on the birds development in Kempshott, Basingstoke, is on the market for the first time in 27 years.

Its long-time owners have extended the Falcon Close house to the front and rear since it was originally built, and are now selling through estate agents Keel Barrett at £249,950.

With the exception of the kitchen-diner, which has a tiled floor, the whole of the downstairs accommodation has been laid with wood-laminate flooring.

The lounge is at the back of the house and has an archway through to a study.

There are also French doors out to a sandstone terrace, which overlooks a landscaped garden.

Units in the kitchen are inset with the oven and hob and form a peninsular to make a clear division with the dining area.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, two of which have fitted wardrobes, and a shared family bathroom.
