Parchment Street, Winchester

Situated in a historical stabling yard off Parchment Street, 16 Parchment Street is a rare find. The front door leads into an entrance hall, where the character features of the property are immediately apparent, bevelled plastering around rustic old wooden beams on one side and attractive brick & frame on the other. Stairs rise to the first floor and there are doors to the living room and kitchen. The living room is double aspect, with a high ceiling and a lovely big window that lets in a lot of light. There is a woodburner in here, and a quirky pair of storage cubbies - one of which is a rather ancient iron safe that still works! The majority of the house is south facing so light is plentiful. The kitchen is surprisingly spacious, with space for a large kitchen table and other furniture. There is also a large cupboard.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a great size, with two large windows and wonderful high ceilings with picture rails. There is an ornamental iron fireplace and room for a super-king bed with space left over. The central bedroom is a single, and has steps to a loft stair. The final bedroom is a good size with south-facing window. Completing this floor is a bathroom with white suite comprising of toilet, basin and shower over bath. 

The loft is particularly spacious and offers versatile use across three rooms, one of which is a modern bathroom. 

Outside, to the side of the property there is an off road parking space which most will know is fairly invaluable in the centre of town! next to this is a small garden with pleasant seating area.

The property has been subject to structural improvements and, with the correct building control adjustments to the loft and first floor, could be easily converted to a four bedroom configuration. A reconfiguration in this regard has already been drawn up by an architect. 

Planning consent has been granted for a single storey extension (WCC reference 23/02691/HOU).
