Property Description
THE PROPERTY Enjoying a peaceful cul-de-sac setting within one of St Cross's most desirable residential developments, this attractive detached four-bedroom home offers bright, well-proportioned accommodation, a generous and secluded private garden, driveway parking and an attached garage, all within easy walking distance of Winchester city centre, fabulous pubs including The Queens Inn, the Water Meadows, and the mainline railway station.

A distinctive sentry-box style entrance porch, with its elegant curved tiled canopy and attractive architectural detailing, creates an immediate sense of arrival. Beyond, a welcoming entrance hall is filled with natural light, with attractive views extending through the house to the rear garden, enhancing the feeling of space throughout.

To one side of the hallway sits the spacious kitchen/breakfast room, extending from the front to the rear of the property. Fitted with an extensive range of cream Shaker-style wall and base units topped with warm timber worktops, this 18ft long room offers excellent storage and generous preparation space for busy family life. Integrated appliances include an eye-level oven and an induction hob, while the sink enjoys pleasant views over the rear garden. A useful pantry cupboard provides additional storage, and a door gives convenient side access outside.

At the heart of the house sits the dining room, perfectly positioned between the principal reception spaces and opening directly onto the garden. French doors lead out to the terrace, which, with the conservatory extends the indoor/outdoor living space still further, creating a wonderfully versatile area for family life, entertaining or simply enjoying views of the garden throughout the seasons.

On the other side of the house, the generous sitting room is a wonderfully light and comfortable living space, centred around an attractive open fireplace with a classical surround. Sliding patio doors connect seamlessly to the conservatory, currently arranged as a playroom and gym, providing valuable additional living space with direct access to the garden.

The ground floor is completed by a cloakroom/WC and a practical coats cupboard, ideal for modern family living.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms radiate from the central landing. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a smart en-suite shower room, while two further double bedrooms also feature built-in storage. A generous single bedroom offers flexibility as a child's room, nursery or home office, complemented by a well-appointed family bathroom.

The house has been well cared for and offers comfortable accommodation throughout, whilst presenting an excellent opportunity for new owners to personalise the décor and create a home to suit their own tastes over time.

Outside, the property enjoys a generous plot. The front garden is attractively landscaped with lawn and two specimen trees, creating an appealing approach and maintaining privacy, while the driveway provides valuable off-road parking for three cars and leads to the attached single garage.

The rear garden is a particular highlight. Fully enclosed, remarkably secluded and predominantly laid to lawn, it provides an excellent space for children to play, family gatherings and outdoor entertaining. Well-stocked borders planted with mature shrubs, roses and specimen trees provide year-round interest, while a wide patio extending across the rear of the house offers an ideal setting for al fresco dining. A secure side passage with gated access links the front and rear gardens, and the garage also benefits from a pedestrian door directly into the garden.
