3 bedroom townhouse for sale

The Property:
Dating back to 1721, this property offers character in abundance. Many of the traditional period details have been retained and restored, including fireplaces and original sash windows. The ground floor enjoys a light and open-plan feel; the sitting area to the front has an exposed brick chimney breast housing a woodburning stove. A particularly unique feature is the former side passage, which was converted many years ago and brought into the main property - the spaces are slightly raised, with brick arches and brick barrel ceilings, and are independently lit to create cosy and atmospheric spaces, with one currently used as a study area. The dining area is to the rear, adjacent to the kitchen/breakfast room which is fitted with range of hand-made wooden shaker style units with marble worksurfaces and a Belfast sink. Completing the accommodation on the ground floor there is a period cloakroom with a high-level cistern.

A fixed staircase, beneath the main stairs, provides access to the cellar which has been converted into a utility room with fitted cupboards, wooden worksurface, plumbing for a washing machine and space for a condenser dryer. The room also offers generous additional storage space and a handy workshop area.

The first floor is home to two bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a wonderfully spacious room which two generous sash windows, original built in wardrobes; and a restored fireplace. The family bathroom includes a newly replaced four-piece bathroom suite including a generous rolltop cast iron bath.

The top floor provides an exceptionally versatile space that currently serves as a large double bedroom, TV room and study. The original dormer windows offer views to St. Catherine's Hill to the front and Winchester Cathedral to the rear. There is also a generous attic space. The sunny rear garden is fully enclosed by brick and flint walls and has been paved in York stone with ample space for table/chairs.
