A remarkable Victorian home offering a wealth of character, generous accommodation and gardens of 0.8 acres.
Description
Believed to be the first residence built on Sleepers Hill, this remarkable Victorian family home dates back to 1856. Once forming part of a 20-acre estate – later subdivided in 1932 – the property has a rich heritage and retains many period features.
Following the estate’s division, the main house was split into two substantial dwellings, with the former servants’ quarters thoughtfully converted into a separate home. Today, this magnificent residence offers nearly 7,000 sq. ft. of highly adaptable living space arranged over three floors, set within a generous plot of approximately 0.8 acres. It benefits from dual access points via both Sleepers Hill and Milnthorpe Lane.
Constructed in the Gothic style, the home showcases a wealth of original architectural detail. Highlights include high ceilings, intricately designed fireplaces, original wood panelling, a grand feature staircase, tall French doors with original shutters, and deep skirting boards – all contributing to its character and charm.
OUTSIDE
Set within beautifully landscaped grounds, Milnthorpe offers exceptional privacy, with mature trees and established shrubs enclosing the plot. Access is provided via a private track from Sleepers Hill, leading to a cluster of distinguished homes. Electric double gates open onto a spacious driveway, while a secondary gated entrance is available via Milnthorpe Lane.
A side gate between the main house and the gym/double garage provides access to the expansive rear garden, where a large lawn wraps gracefully around the property. Both the garage and gym are equipped with power and lighting.
Location
Milnthorpe is located on Sleepers Hill about 1 mile from the city centre and railway station, Sleepers Hill is ideally positioned for those wishing to benefit from the comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities in the city, which includes a selection of boutiques, shops, restaurants, and café.

Winchester is also home to highly regarded educational establishments including the Kings School, Winchester College, St Swithun’s and Pilgrims Schools. Additional preparatory and state schools are situated locally including Peter Symonds College, Twyford and Farleigh Preparatory Schools and Prince’s Mead.
