Plumbing exists here to install a downstairs WC.

On the first floor the elegant, principal sitting room lies to the front of the property with generous windows allowing plenty of natural light, bespoke built-in shelving and an attractive gas feature fireplace. To the rear is a super, spacious, bedroom or family room with two windows overlooking the rear garden and built-in storage. A contemporary shower room is also situated on this floor.

On the second floor the principal bedroom is an excellent size, benefits from an ample en-suite bathroom and has a substantial walk-in storage area as well as built-in wardrobes. A further good-sized double bedroom on this floor and a smaller bedroom/study are served by a smart family bathroom. On the top floor another superb bedroom is used as a study by the current owners and features a long balcony with glorious, far-reaching views across Winchester. The Jack and Jill bathroom with bath and shower over is a real delight, with its beautiful terra cotta flooring. Across the hall to the rear lies a further double bedroom featuring a beautiful arched window with shutters.

Outside, to the front, an attractive garden boasts mature shrubs while hedging provides privacy from the road. Side access leads to the pretty rear garden which includes a patio, small pond and a lawn leading to the parking at the rear of the house where the double garage also lies.
