Property Description
THE PROPERTY An exceptional and wonderfully private family home of impressive proportions, occupying a secluded position within one of Winchester's most sought-after residential settings, with glorious gardens and far-reaching views towards St Giles Hill and Winchester Cathedral.
Approached along a private lane shared with just one other property, 21 Kerrfield enjoys an unusually peaceful and discreet setting. Surrounded by mature trees and established gardens, it has an almost country-house atmosphere yet remains within walking distance of Winchester city centre. It is a rare combination: considerable space, privacy and greenery without sacrificing the convenience of city living.
The house itself is substantial, extending to approximately 3,780 sq ft of internal accommodation, with a further 381 sq ft double garage, and has been designed to make the most of its elevated position. Generous windows throughout draw in an abundance of natural light, while many of the principal rooms enjoy beautiful outlooks across the gardens and Kerrfield Dell.
At the heart of the ground floor is a broad and welcoming entrance hall, from which the principal reception rooms flow. The impressive sitting room measures approximately 27'8" in length and is a particularly elegant space, centred around a feature fireplace with limestone surround. Two large windows frame wonderful views across the rear garden, over the Dell and towards the Winchester skyline beyond.
Alongside this is a office, with stairs rising to a galleried library/music area above and continuing down to a superb lower-ground-floor gym/playroom. At approximately 23' long, this wonderfully versatile room lends itself equally well to use as a games room, cinema, music room or home gym and opens directly onto the garden terrace.
The dining/family room provides another substantial entertaining space, while a separate office offers an ideal environment for working from home. The kitchen/breakfast room forms the everyday heart of the house, with extensive fitted cabinetry, Corian work surfaces, and space for informal dining. French doors open directly onto the terrace and garden, whilst the adjoining utility room provides practical laundry and storage space
The versatility of the accommodation is one of the property's defining qualities. There are spaces for formal entertaining and relaxed family life, as well as quieter areas for working, reading or retreating from the main living rooms.
Occupying a substantial part of the first floor, the principal suite comprises a generous bedroom, a separate dressing or sitting area, extensive fitted storage and an ensuite shower room. Large windows bring in excellent natural light and create attractive outlooks across the surrounding greenery.
Four further bedrooms are arranged across the upper floors, together with additional bath and shower rooms. The second-floor bedroom is an especially appealing and private space, making it well suited to an older child, guest suite or live-in accommodation. In total, the house offers five bedrooms in its present configuration, with considerable flexibility to adapt as family requirements evolve.
Gardens and setting
The gardens are a particular highlight of 21 Kerrfield and provide an exceptional backdrop to the house. Immediately to the rear, broad terraces create generous areas for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation before steps descend through beautifully established planting to an expansive lawn.
Mature trees and shrubs create a remarkable sense of seclusion, while the open central lawn draws the eye towards the far-reaching outlook beyond. From both the house and garden there are lovely views across Kerrfield Dell towards Winchester Cathedral and St Giles Hill - a wonderful reminder of just how close the property remains to the heart of the city.
To the front, established planting provides further privacy from the private lane, with ample driveway parking, electric car charging point, and a detached double garage.
Residents of Kerrfield also enjoy exclusive access to Kerrfield Dell, an approximately 2.1-acre private park available solely to the 22 houses within the development, subject to a nominal maintenance contribution. This additional green space further enhances the sense of openness and tranquillity for which Kerrfield is so highly regarded.

LOCATION:
Kerrfield was developed in the 1980's and is a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of the exclusive Sleepers Hill area of Winchester. The properties are an attractive selection of detached spacious family homes, built around a two acre central green area, known as Kerrfield Dell. The Sleepers Hill area is one of the prime residential locations of Winchester and is known for its substantial houses in large leafy gardens and retains a distinctly rural feel whilst being less than a mile to Winchester's mainline railway station and the central shops and amenities that Winchester has to offer.
