Entrance Hall, Sitting Room, Kitchen/Dining/Living Room, Principal Bedroom En-Suite, Four Further Double Bedrooms, Two Bathrooms & En-Suite Bathroom, Boot Room, Utility Room, Study, Detached Double Garage With Office Studio, Garden, Driveway Parking

The Property:
This deceptively spacious detached family home offers versatile accommodation over two floors. Designed and constructed for the current owner, the property is currently used for 'multi-generational' family living largely due to its flexible floor plan. The ground floor accommodation comprises a large, triple aspect drawing room with French doors opening out into the rear garden. A stylish modern extension with a zinc roof facilitates the 'live in' style kitchen/dining/sitting room which is truly the hub of this home with bifold doors opening into the garden, as well as side aspect windows and Velux rooflights which make the room beautifully light. There is a separate boot/utility room. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a bedroom en-suite, as well as two further bedrooms which are served by a bathroom which may lend themselves to being amalgamated into a larger family room. The first floor has a principal bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, along with two further bedrooms served by a shower room, the larger of which has a dressing room that could be turned into an en-suite. An additional utility space could become a laundry room or a bedroom. The property is approached from Kerrfield by a private driveway which allows parking for several vehicles, plus a garage with a studio space above. The private gardens sit largely to the southern side of the plot with a terrace and lawn, mature trees and shrubs which provide a natural backdrop. On the opposite side of the private drive, a footpath leads down to 'The Dell', which is a private area of gardens and woodland belonging to the owners of all the houses and extending to about four acres.

The Location:
Considered to be one of the prime residential positions in Winchester, Kerrfield is an exclusive and select development of approximately 20 properties built in the established grounds of a former large house that was replaced by these properties in the 1980's. The tranquil and sylvan setting is all the more impressive given that the extensive facilities and amenities of the city centre are only a mile or so away. The property is within catchment of Kings School which is rated outstanding. Peter Symonds Sixth Form College is also situated close by. The city is also home to Winchester College and St. Swithun's. Preparatory schools situated locally include Prince's Mead, Pilgrims' Farleigh, Stroud and Twyford. Day to day amenities including Waitrose, The Friarsgate Practice, pharmacy and other facilities on Stoney Lane. The railway station is about 20 minutes' walk away with a direct train service to London Waterloo in 60-minutes. The M3 (junction 9) is approximately 2 miles away offering direct access to London and the South Coast. The A34 is also easily accessible providing access to the A303 and the Midlands. Heathrow and Southampton Airports are 55 and 12 miles away respectively. Winchester offers a comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities with a selection of boutiques, restaurants, cafés and a farmer's market twice monthly. A range of cultural opportunities include the theatre, the City Museum, and the Military History Museum.
