A charming Victorian townhouse occupying an enviable position just moments from Winchester’s pedestrianised High Street and world-renowned Cathedral.
Circa 1875, this handsome Victorian townhouse offers beautifully proportioned accommodation arranged across four floors, combining period character with a versatile layout ideally suited to modern city living. Situated in a highly convenient central Winchester position, the property extends to approximately 1,443 sq. ft and provides a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home within easy reach of the city's amenities.
The ground floor comprises a well-appointed kitchen, adjoining dining room or sitting room and a utility room, creating a practical and sociable space for everyday living. The first floor is dedicated to an impressive dual-aspect sitting room extending in excess of 24 feet in length, providing an elegant reception space with excellent natural light and ample room for both seating and entertaining.
The upper floors provide three generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom and adjacent bathroom occupy the entire second floor, creating a private and well-proportioned principal suite, while two further bedrooms occupy the top floor and enjoy a good degree of separation.
Characterful and full of period charm, the property retains the
appealing proportions synonymous with Victorian architecture, whilst offering versatile living space suited to contemporary requirements. The combination of generous accommodation, attractive period features and a highly desirable central Winchester setting create a particularly appealing city home.
OUTSIDE
To the rear, the property enjoys a delightful walled garden providing a wonderfully private and tranquil setting in the heart of the city. Thoughtfully landscaped with mature planting, established shrubs and attractive climbing greenery, the garden offers a charming backdrop for both relaxation and outdoor entertaining. A generous, paved terrace immediately adjoins the house, creating an ideal space for al fresco dining, whilst well-stocked borders provide colour and interest throughout the seasons. Enclosed and secluded, the garden is a particularly appealing complement to the character of the house.
