An exceptional five bedroom detached family home, meticulously refurbished and re-modelled, with the benefit of a south-west facing rear garden and ample off road parking.

Description

An exceptional and substantial family home, which has been meticulously, re-designed and refurbished. Great care and attention has been paid to the detail throughout providing a house of a high standard with quality fittings. Situated in a no-through road with extensive parking possible in the large, graveled driveway which has wiring ready for an electric car charger.

Entering the house via a pillared doorway, there is a welcoming reception hall with French ripped-oak flooring, creating an excellent first impression. The delightful sitting room offers a relaxing space having French doors opening on to the garden and windows on several aspects making it light at all times of the day. One end of the room leads into the open plan kitchen/breakfast room, ideal for entertaining and fitted with an array of wall and floor mounted units, large central island. Its bay window recess creates a superb dining area overlooking the extensive patio and garden. For coats/boots/dogs and storage there is a good-sized cloakroom with side access and a separate WC.

The wide first floor landing with large, beautiful sash window is a pleasure. The principle bedroom has a walk-in dressing room and contemporary en suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms, both with large built-in cupboards, are serviced by a separate family bathroom. The owner has extended into the second floor to create two further impressive double bedrooms, spacious landing/study area, and a shower room with natural stone flooring and walls. Storage space has certainly not been compromised, with access to extensive eaves for this purpose.

In all, this family home features generous proportions throughout and is finished to a remarkable specification. The vendor has ensured first-class workmanship in every aspect of the project. This includes new roof (with high performance insulation), new timber box sash windows, new cast iron radiators throughout, completely new re-wiring and CAT 5 cabling in the sitting room.

The rear garden is enclosed, with a south-west aspect and a large limestone patio area is perfect for outside dining.

Location

An outstanding position for road and rail links, this sort-after location lies about 1.6 miles from the Cathedral City of Winchester. An easy 2-mile drive or bicycle ride to the main line station with a train service to Waterloo taking 56 mins. Located on the edge of the South Downs National Park, there are wonderful local walks and the many beautiful beaches of the south coast are within a short drive.

There is so much to recommend the beautiful historic city of Winchester. Dating back to the Romans, it combines an esthetic beauty with a buzzy atmosphere of pavement cafes, well-known restaurants, Cathedral close, riverside park for children, new leisure centre with pool, along with individual shops, twice-monthly farmers' market, museums, cinema, and theatre. A great envionment for all ages.

Close by are several internationally renowned schools including Winchester College, St Swithun's, The Pilgrims School, Twyford School and Princes Mead. Conveniently, many of the private schools have a bus collection stop about 200m from the property and Kings Worthy primary school is located very close by.

Over the road is the picturesque church green with children's play area and within a short walk is the popular Good Life Farm and Coffee shop (recently rebranded Cobbs). Round the corner from the house is “'The Cart & Horses' pub currently undergoing extensive refurbishment, and reopening soon.
