An exceptionally rare opportunity to own a unique family home which was once the Evangelical Church of Hyde (built circa 1870 and converted in the 1980s). The property has been tastefully modernised and converted and now offers 2100 sq ft of stunning, well-proportioned accommodation across two floors. Internally the attention to detail and craftsmanship is exceptional and provides a huge amount of charm and character. The property is currently laid out with three bedrooms; the principal bedroom occupying the majority of the first floor with a breath-taking en-suite shower room and ample built-in storage. There is also a versatile mezzanine level which provides a further snug area and space for a home office. A dramatic vaulted kitchen/dining/sitting room dominates the rear of the building and incorporates a comprehensive range of wall and base units with a central island. This same area is coupled with a large wood burning stove which provides a unique, high-class entertaining space. The ground floor is completed by bedroom two, with an en-suite shower room whilst bedroom three is served by a beautiful bathroom which hosts a freestanding slipper bath and walk-in shower. The property is approached through a secure video entrance nestled into the period flint wall which leads to the welcoming front courtyard. Externally to the rear is a terraced area with steps down from the kitchen. The private garden has been landscaped with a wealth of mature flowering plants and ornamental shrubs and there are two outbuildings at the rear of the garden, a workshop/store which was once the Infants’ Sunday School with a timber built studio/home office next to it.

Historic Hyde is only a short walk from the thriving city centre and railway station. Winchester is a splendid and historical cathedral city with much character and diverse architecture, whilst successfully delivering a modern cosmopolitan feel concentrated over just a few square miles. As well as national retail chains, Winchester is home to an array of independent boutique shops and eateries and an impressive farmers market. Winchester is also highly renowned for its outstanding educational establishments ranging from both private and state schools to popular sixth form college and the oldest public school in the United Kingdom. Coast and country lifestyle pursuits are all within striking distance as the city is well placed for the South Downs National Park, the New Forest, the Meon Valley and both Bournemouth and Portsmouth’s coastal beaches. Equally however, the capital is commutable within the hour, using South West Trains rail connections to London Waterloo and with Southampton’s international airport granting air travel for those seeking further destinations. The surrounding countryside has a network of footpaths and bridleways for walking and riding. Communications are excellent with the railway station, A34, M3 and M27 within easy reach.
