Sleepers Hill, Winchester, SO22

The Property:
Exceptional five bedroom home with outstanding accommodation arranged to promote versatile modern living. Set in an elevated position along one of Winchester's most private and prestigious addresses, this beautiful home forms part of a small development of only four properties, constructed only seven years ago by renowned local developers Millgate (Winchester) Limited.
The property enjoys the perfect balance between city and country living; enveloped by mature trees and with sweeping views over the South Downs, yet with the High Street only a 20 minute walk away. The property itself has been finished with exceptional care and craftsmanship, with luxury and energy efficiency at its heart, all behind a classic façade.
The large entrance hall boasts a bank of bespoke fitted cloaks cupboards and provides access via double doors into the formal drawing room; an opulent space with sash windows to the side and rear, taking in views of the garden. A beautifully appointed study lies to the front of the property. The lower ground floor has a wonderful formal dining/family room, currently being used as a playroom. The kitchen/dining/family room lies to the rear and spans the full width of the property; a magnificent space with an extensive range of contemporary Leicht German kitchen units with 12mm polished quartz worksurfaces and an extensive range of Miele appliances. This room has space for a sitting area and a large dining space with full-height retracting doors opening into the landscaped rear garden. The utility room and plant room provide valuable additional storage.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is located to the rear of the house and is a sumptuous space with a large dressing room and luxury ensuite. This floor is home to two further double bedrooms and a four piece family bathroom. The second floor has two further bedrooms, the rearmost offering the best views over lower Sleepers Hill, St. Cross and the South Downs beyond. Another shower room serves these rooms.
Outside, there is ample parking across the driveway to the front, with the oversized garage located opposite the property. This has a remote door, power, lighting and large attic storage. PV panels on the roof of the garage generate energy for the house. There is a small, private paved courtyard behind the garage. The rear garden is fantastic in size and is mostly laid to lawn, flanked by mature shrub borders with a large, paved patio area.
