Quarry Road, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23

Set back from the road and framed by mature gardens, this handsome detached Edwardian home combines period grace with a wonderfully light-filled interior. The distinctive Tudor-style façade, deep red brickwork and elegant gables create an immediate sense of presence, complemented by a tranquil setting, generous driveway and integrated garage. Inside, the character continues with an inviting entrance hall featuring original joinery, leaded glass panels and a fine wooden staircase, all of which set the tone for the quality and warmth found throughout.

The principal reception rooms are beautifully proportioned, with high ceilings, marble fireplaces and large windows that fill each space with natural light. The Drawing Room, enhanced by ornate ceiling roses and a wide bay window overlooking the landscaped front garden, flows seamlessly into an additional seating area — a perfect setting for both entertaining and quiet relaxation. Beyond, the kitchen enjoys the charming view of the garden, while the Breakfast Room offers views of the mature trees in the old chalk quarry known as the Soke. The kitchen connects to a classic Shaker-style layout with cream cabinetry and tiled splashbacks. While currently compact for a property of this size, it offers excellent scope for expansion. Recently approved plans for a modern and spacious extension to the kitchen are available on request.

A versatile suite to the rear of the ground floor provides an ideal home office, guest bedroom or independent living space, complete with a modern ensuite and peaceful garden outlook. Upstairs, four comfortable bedrooms are tastefully decorated, each benefitting from generous natural light and storage. The Principal Bedroom features fitted wardrobes and serene dual-aspect views, while the family bathroom and additional shower room combine flexibility with convenience.

Stepping outside, the gardens are a true highlight. A paved terrace bordered by colourful pots and lush planting provides the perfect space for outdoor dining, with stone steps leading up to a manicured lawn framed by mature hedging and trees. The thoughtful landscaping ensures beauty in every season — from the vibrant borders surrounding the terrace to the dappled shade of a silver birch at the far end — creating a tranquil and private retreat that perfectly complements this distinguished Edwardian home.
