Offering almost 2000 square feet and sitting on a third-of-an-acre plot, this impressive detached home is a rarity indeed and would make for a terrific family home. Offering three/four reception rooms, study, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two WC's, garage and driveway. No onward chain.
Located on the northern fringe of Winchester on a particularly exclusive and sought-after road, this property is currently very 'liveable' but also offers ample opportunity to improve and extend (STPP). The proportions are excellent throughout, with the house clearly desigend with space in mind.
The rooms are large and the plot is also sizaeble for a Winchester property in this price bracket. There truly is a terrific amount of potential throughout.
The property sits well-back from the road beyond a small copse of trees. To the front, there is a large driveway with room for several vehicles and a carport. Upon entry through the porch, there is a hall which leads to all ground floor accommodation and, from here, stairs rise to the first floor. The generously sized living room sits to the front of the property and benefits from a fireplace with a stone surround. A wide aperture leads through into the dining room, creating a collected space which works both for sociable occasions and cosy evenings. From the dining room, glass sliding doors open to the rear garden and allow ample natural light into the space.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of eye and low-level units with plenty of space for appliances, and there is also a useful storage cupboard which houses the updated boiler. The room has plenty of space and could also act as a kitchen/breakfast room. From the kitchen, a door leads to the integrated garage which in turn leads to the large utility room and garden room. This is a great space as it is, but also sets a promising precedent for extension and reordering. Finishing off the ground floor is a fourth reception room that currently acts as a study, and a WC.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms - all of which are doubles with built in storage. Bedrooms one and two are especially generous in size, and bedroom one further benefits from an ensuite with shower and handbasin. The family bathroom is a white suite and fitted with a bath, toilet, and handbasin. The WC is separately located next door to the bathroom and there is also a large built-in linen cupboard on the landing.
Outside, the rear garden is a particularly impressive size, with a significant portion laid to lawn, mature planted borders and a generously sized raised patio directly outside the house. It it nice and private, and benefits from a warm southernly aspect. The garden can be accessed both from the dining room and from the utility room and there is also pedestrian side access. To the front of the property, there is a very generous sized driveway, a covered carport, and access to the garage.
