The Property:
24 Hampton Lane is a well-proportioned detached family sized house with accommodation over two floors. Constructed in 1955 and sitting in a 0.44-acre plot, the property was extended in the 1970's and now offers scope to improve and possibly extend again. The floor plan of the property works well and has an entrance hall with wood block flooring, a double aspect drawing room with an open fire and a dining room with views over the rear garden. This links to the kitchen/ breakfast room, which has a table for everyday dining and opens into a large utility/boot room. This leads through to an open porch and garage. The first floor has four double bedrooms, the largest of which is a dual aspect room. There is a separate bathroom and WC. Externally, the gardens to the front incorporate a gravelled driveway that leads to the garage, with lawn and flower and shrub borders that open into the rear garden. A large terrace sits directly behind the house, which graduates onto a lawn and is enclosed by mature hedging. The garden faces west and gently slopes away to the rear. There also is a mature beech hedge, behind which the garden extends further.

The Location:
Hampton Lane is a delightful single-track 'leafy lane' that provides pedestrian access onto Royal Winchester Golf Course and is situated on the western edge of the city. To the top of Dean Lane is a bridleway onto a network of paths through woodland which allow for stunning walks into the surrounding countryside to Crab Wood, Farley Mount and Sparsholt which is home to the renowned 'Plough' public house. Within easy access are day to day amenities including Waitrose, The Friarsgate Practice, pharmacy, and other shops on Stoney Lane. The railway station is just under a mile walk away with a direct train service to London Waterloo in 60-minutes. Winchester offers a comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities with a selection of boutiques, restaurants, cafés and a farmer's market twice monthly. Local primary schooling can be found at Weeke and Sparsholt, whilst Henry Beaufort, Kings and Westgate secondary schools, as well as Peter Symonds sixth form college are all close to hand. The city is also home to public schools including Winchester college, St. Swithun's and Pilgrims' school. Other preparatory schools situated locally include Farleigh, Stroud and Twyford.
