A spacious first floor apartment with lift access.

Description

Arriving at the property the well-maintained covered front door and communal hallway welcomes you to this exclusive collection of apartments. Served by a lift or stairs, no. 8 is on the first floor and towards the end of the building away from the entrance and Sleepers Hill.

Upon entry there is a spacious hall with a very useful storage cupboard which could be utilised for household utilities. Leading through the apartment the primary reception room captures the attention with its stunning views over the gardens, electric feature fireplace and the balcony which has space for a table and chairs. The open plan layout is a particular highlight as the space flows well and allows for entertaining, reading and relaxing spaces. The kitchen features built in appliances and plenty of storage space and is open to an area for a dining table and chairs which leads to double doors on to the balcony.

There are two impressive bedrooms one of which has an en suite shower room and both benefitting hugely from built in wardrobes. The family bathroom and a variety of additional storage cupboards off the main hall complete the accommodation.

Outside there is a private, allocated parking space, visitors parking and within the building (accessed via a separate door from the car park) a secure room for storing bicycles or other
items. There are extremely pleasant walks throughout the gardens which include a wide variety of mature shrubs, well stocked boarders, trees and manicured lawns as well as well-positioned seating areas to enjoy the peace and tranquility.

Location

King's Crescent is gated development situated on Sleepers Hill, a highly attractive private road in central Winchester. Upon arriving at the electric gates, it is immediately apparent the care and attention paid to the mature and established communal gardens and grounds that surround the property.

There are peaceful walks via Sleepers Hill and St Cross to the city centre and excellent bus services via the Romsey Road which is accessible by foot. The high street is under 2 miles from the property where you can find the pedestrianised high street containing a variety of shops, independent boutiques, restaurants and recreational facilities such as the Theatre Royal, local cinema and the historic cathedral grounds. Winchester offers a fine balance of history, recreational pursuits and a thriving social scene.

The city is very well connected via road and rail with London Waterloo being around 60 minutes from the city's railway station. The M3 allows easy access to London and the South coast connecting with the M27 and Southampton Airport which serves a growing number of destinations worldwide.
