Property Description
THE PROPERTY Occupying a wonderful position within the highly desirable village of Twyford, Glen View is a charming detached three-bedroom cottage offering beautifully balanced family accommodation, exceptional gardens approaching 0.25 acres, and impressive eco-friendly credentials. Combining character, versatility and sustainability, this attractive home enjoys far-reaching countryside views, generous parking and a peaceful setting just moments from excellent village amenities and communications.
Set back from the road behind mature front gardens, the property immediately conveys a sense of privacy and tranquillity. A driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles in addition to a single garage, whilst steps rise to the welcoming entrance hall.
At the heart of the home is the stunning extended kitchen/breakfast room, recently renovated to an excellent standard and thoughtfully designed for modern family living. Featuring a gas-fired Aga, electric hob set within the worktop, integrated appliances and an extensive range of wall and base units beneath quality work surfaces, the kitchen enjoys lovely views across the garden with doors opening directly onto the terrace, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.
The accommodation flows beautifully throughout the ground floor, offering both flexibility and character. A cosy snug with wood-burning stove opens into the bright and spacious living room, where French doors flood the space with natural light and frame the glorious garden outlook. There is also a separate dining room, study, utility/boot room, and a generous family bathroom with both bath and separate shower. With bathroom facilities on the ground floor, the dining room could also serve as a potential fourth bedroom if desired.
Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a particularly light-filled room overlooking the rear garden, offering extensive wardrobe space and access to a Jack and Jill shower room shared with the second bedroom. Bedroom two enjoys spectacular far-reaching views across the valley and surrounding countryside, whilst bedroom three is a spacious single room with attractive garden views.
A particular feature of Glen View is its outstanding landscaped gardens, which extend to approximately 0.25 acres. Carefully designed and lovingly maintained, the gardens offer an idyllic setting for both relaxation and entertaining, with a sunny terrace, expansive lawns, mature hedging and borders, vegetable plots, fruit cages, greenhouse, summer house and an attractive water feature. The generous plot also offers excellent potential for future extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The property's strong environmental credentials further enhance its appeal, benefitting from solar panels and an air source heat pump, helping to provide energy-efficient and economical living. These features contribute towards the home's impressive EPC Grade B rating, rarely found in properties of this character and style.
Twyford remains one of the area's most sought-after villages, renowned for its excellent community, highly regarded schools and superb accessibility. Glen View is conveniently positioned close to the village post office and shop, The Bugle public house, and falls within catchment for Twyford St Mary's CE Primary School and The Westgate School. Excellent transport links are also nearby, with easy access to Winchester and Shawford mainline railway station providing direct services to London Waterloo.
