A classically styled five-bedroom townhouse totalling over 2000 sq. ft. with a west facing garden and situated in the heart of central Winchester. No onward chain.

Description

This beautifully restored family home blends classic Winchester character with a thoughtfully executed renovation, creating an interior that feels both timeless and uniquely stylish. Set across four floors, the property unfolds with a sense of warmth and craftsmanship at every turn, delivering stunning living environment.

The ground floor offers an elegant sitting room with period detailing and a welcoming atmosphere, while the open-plan kitchen and dining space at the rear has been redesigned with flair. It strikes a perfect balance between contemporary comfort and traditional style, featuring quality finishes, considered lighting, and an effortless flow out to the garden. There are a range of built in appliances that include a range cooker, induction hob, fridge/freezer and dishwasher as well as plenty of storage space.

The lower ground floor has been cleverly reimagined to create a relaxed cinema room and a practical utility area, ideal for modern living without disturbing the property's heritage.

Across the upper floors are five well-proportioned bedrooms, each with its own character. Original features, tasteful décor, and the soft palette used throughout create a calm, and restful space. The principal bedroom is particularly notable and generous in its proportions. There are high ceilings, sash windows and a feature fireplace. A guest bedroom with fitted cupboards and a family shower room complete the first floor.

The upper rooms offer flexibility for guests, home working, or family use as there are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The current owners have carefully, and sensitivity restored the property back to its original form, accentuating the unique features that set the property apart from many others.

The warmth and authenticity of this traditional St Cross townhouse have been retained while subtly upgrading it for contemporary life. It's an inviting, quietly luxurious home in one of Winchester's most coveted neighbourhoods.

Beyond this, raised beds frame the space with structure and colour, filled with established planting that brings interest throughout the seasons.

Location

10 St Cross Road is situated close to the pedestrianised city centre (0.2 miles) and south of the high street, within a conservation area containing Winchester College, the water meadows, and St Catherine's Hill. The variety of interesting architecture and fascinating ancient buildings make Winchester high street a unique and charming place to shop and spend time socially.

At the heart of the city is the world-renowned 11th century Cathedral and quaint back streets leading to the centre that contains a wealth of independent shops, boutiques, national retailers, a varied choice of restaurants, bars, cafes, and recreational facilities. There are also several cultural and leisure attractions in the city including the Theatre Royal, The Arc Discovery Centre & Library, Winchester sports and leisure park and the local cinema.

Schooling in the area is very highly regarded and has become a particular draw to the city with a broad selection of private or comprehensive education. Including Pilgrims, Winchester College, St Swithun's, Westgate, Kings School and Peter Symonds, there is a wide variety for all educational needs nearby.

The mainline railway station in Winchester is 0.7 miles from the property and has a regular fast train into London Waterloo in approximately 58 minutes. The M3 motorway (Junction 9) is to the south of St Cross Road and makes both London and Southampton easily accessible by road.
