Easton Lane, Easton, Winchester, Hampshire, SO21

A stunning cottage nestled in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Easton, beautifully tucked away from the road and approached via a private gravel driveway.

The driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a car barn and the front of the home. To the side of the porch, an external store room houses the boiler. Stepping inside, the spacious and welcoming entrance hall immediately impresses, enhanced by a gas stove that creates a warm first impression.

To the left is the versatile third bedroom, equally suited as a study or additional reception space. Further along is a well-proportioned yet cosy sitting room, with a wood-burning stove set within a striking mantle, double doors opening to the rear garden, and a charming bay window overlooking the grounds.

Directly ahead, the impressive dining room provides a superb space for family dining and entertaining, with French doors extending the room out to the garden. Adjacent to this lies the striking second bedroom, complete with a modern en-suite shower room, while a downstairs bathroom with a corner bath is also accessed from the hall. To the other side of the entrance hall is a beautifully appointed kitchen, fitted with a range of integrated appliances and a central island for both practicality and style.

Beyond the kitchen, a lightfilled family room or study, enhanced by a skylight, provides additional flexibility. From here a boot room, with a Belfast sink and connections to a washing machine and dryer, offers a secondary access point and leads to a workshop with direct entry into the car barn.

The first floor continues to impress with a modern flush-to-floor shower room, a fourth double bedroom and the palatial master bedroom, both with ample built-in storage. The master bedroom enjoys the luxury of an open-plan dressing area and striking roll-top bath. Outside, the gardens are exceptional for such a central village location.

Beautifully landscaped, they wrap around the property to create a variety of unique spaces. Off the dining and family room, private patios offer the perfect spots for summer entertaining, enclosed for privacy and complemented by a lawn and raised vegetable beds. A gate leads through to a delightful walled garden, complete with flint brickwork and cobbled paving – a sheltered retreat on a warm day. From the sitting room, steps rise to the main garden, with mature trees, planting beds, and a charming brick-walled gate that enhances the sense of character, seclusion, and security.
