4 bedroom terraced house

This charming family home sits alongside similar historic buildings and within the most attractive of streets scenes opposite the Cathedral wall. Upon arrival there is a very practical entrance hall with built in storage areas and plenty of space for a desk. Leading from the hall there is a wonderful, newly fitted kitchen with range cooker, feature lighting and high quality built-in appliances. The kitchen leads through to a characterful dining room which opens on to the most attractive of drawing rooms, a particular highlight of the property. This wonderful main reception room is well-proportioned and benefits from a wood burning stove and double doors leading to a paved sun terrace and the very pretty south facing garden. Completing the ground floor is a downstairs WC and utility room.

The principal bedroom to the rear of the property features plenty of built-in storage and an impressive en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom. The cleverly designed top floor delivers a fantastic fourth bedroom and bathroom. Featuring one of the finest views of Winchester Cathedral, the second floor makes for a wonderful guest bedroom, yet also a practical work from home space due to the well-thought-out work station, smartly tucked away on the landing.

From the drawing room there is a paved terrace where the historic city wall is still visible. There is an area of manicured lawns, a variety of raised beds, fruit trees and a modest water feature. Tucked in a corner of the garden is a potting shed and a storage room.

Situated near to the 13th Century Church of St Swithun and one of the city's ancient gates leading to Winchester Cathedral, this charming home is within enviable proximity to much of what makes the city so special. This highly attractive area of Winchester is known for its narrow streets with many historically important houses of exceptional architecture and being within a quiet Conservation Area.

There are many lovely walks through the Cathedral streets passing the Wykeham Arms Public House and out on to the Itchen Navigation, water meadows, St Catherine's Hill and directly on to the South Downs National Park beyond. The city has become renowned for its pedestrianised high street, excellent shopping, independent cafes/bars and restaurants as well as the superb Royal Theatre, and newly established Sports and Leisure Park.

Schooling in the area is very highly regarded and has become a particular draw to the city with a broad selection of private or comprehensive education. Including Pilgrims, St Bede's Primary, Winchester College, St Swithun's, Kings School and Peter Symonds, there is a wide variety for all educational needs nearby.

Winchester is very well connected via road and rail with London Waterloo being around 58 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. The A34 to the north provides access to Oxford, the Midlands and the A303 to the West Country.
