Kilham Lane, Winchester

THE PROPERTY A substantial mid century family home set on one of Winchester's most popular and sought after roads, close to local shops and Kings School. A shared driveway off Kilham Lane leads to the drive to this property, which offers generous parking within well-manicured front gardens, behind mature hedging.

A verandah covered porch leads to the front door, which opens into a welcoming vestibule, which has a deep coats cupboard. This in turn opens into the tiled hallway, and leads into the kitchen/breakfast room. This benefits from a wealth of fitted wall and base units under a granite work top. There is ample for a generously sized breakfast table, and has double doors opening to the garden, as well as a side door to the utility room, shower room, and internal door to the garage.

This property offers a wealth of family living space, including a spacious sitting room with a feature fireplace, doors to the garden, and glazed double doors into the family room. The dining room overlooks the front garden, with space for a large dining table and sideboard. The study is a charming room, with an attractive bay window and, courtesy of an adjacent shower room, is designed to also be a potential fifth bedroom if required. From the sitting room, there is also a spacious conservatory, with doors to the garden.

From the hallway, a gracious staircase features an attractive picture windows overlooking the front of the property, filling the hallway and landing with light, where the spacious and part galleried landing leads to all main bedrooms.

The principal bedroom suite is remarkably private. The landing opens to the dressing room which has a large window to the garden, and leads into the bedroom itself, which has a door to a balcony overlooking the garden, and an eaves cupboard leading into a substantive store area, which is boarded, with power and light. The ensuite shower room has a further eaves storage area. There are three further double bedrooms, and a modern family bathroom.

GARDENS: The gardens are a particular joy of this property, being both secluded and well maintained. The front garden has an area of parking which leads to the garage door, with up and over door (and internal door to the utility area). There are two wonderful magnolia trees set within the front lawn, which is fronted from the access road by mature hedging.

The rear garden was historically within Hilliers arboretum, and is now partially subject to a blanket tree protection order.

It has a deep paved terrace, leading to the lawn, with mature specimen trees, shrubs and flowering borders.

Kilham Lane is an attractive tree-lined street within a popular suburb of Winchester.
