Property Description
THE PROPERTY An immaculate family home with far-reaching southerly views across the Chilcomb Downs

Set on the eastern fringe of Winchester, Chalk Ridge is a beautifully presented and thoughtfully updated family home, combining striking views with modern comfort and a sense of calm. With direct access to the South Downs Way, this property offers the best of both worlds - countryside tranquillity and vibrant city living.

A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the home - bright, stylish, and immaculately maintained. This leads to the useful cloakroom, and stairs to the first floor.

The first floor is where the home truly opens up. The spacious L-shaped sitting and dining room spans the full width of the property and is flooded with natural light from its floor-to-ceiling windows, framing captivating southerly views over Morestead and the Chilcomb Downs.

This is an inviting and versatile space - perfect for entertaining or relaxing with family, with room for a large dining table and comfortable seating areas.

To the rear, the kitchen/breakfast room has been recently refitted with a smart contemporary range of base and eye-level units from Ikea, offering both function and flair. There's ample workspace, a built-in oven and hob, and room for a breakfast table and double doors opening onto the garden. Thoughtful design details include a freestanding microwave set at a convenient height within an eyelevel unit, and space for a washing machine - a top-of-the-range Miele model, included by the current owners.

A door from the kitchen leads through to a useful utility store and a cleverly designed shower room fitted with an electric shower, adding a layer of flexibility and versatility to the accommodation. There is also a large cupboard on first floor landing.

The top floor continues the home's sense of light and proportion. There are four bedrooms, three of which feature fitted wardrobe cupboards offering ample storage without compromising on space. The two front bedrooms command stunning panoramic views across open countryside, whilst the two rear bedrooms overlook the rear garden.

The family bathroom has been recently refitted and offers a touch of luxury, featuring a bath with high powered electric shower, modern WC and basin with storage beneath, an illuminated mirror, with Envirovent Silent 100 extractor fan to clear condensation, and a separate walk-in shower fitted with a deep recessed shelf. A loft hatch with a wooden ladder provides easy access to the heavily insulated attic space above.

Outside: The rear garden has been landscaped and designed by the current owner to be both low maintenance and a relaxing outdoor space. The principal garden area has been levelled and laid with timber decking to create an area ideal for outside entertaining and relaxation. There is also a bespoke insulated garden store, complete with power and light - ideal to keep garden equipment neatly organised. And a flight of steps leads up to a rear access path, with a lockable gate at the end of the path.

The block-paved driveway to the front of the property provides generous parking, with both manual and remote-controlled garage doors ensuring ease of access. The garage is neatly organised and practical, featuring a fitted basin, raised power points, and a cleverly designed store cupboard with light and power.
