Overall, this is a thoughtfully configured home with generous reception space, a sociable kitchen at its core and adaptable bedroom accommodation arranged over three floors — well suited to modern family living while retaining a strong sense of character throughout.

OUTSIDE
The garden is designed for easy enjoyment, with a smart paved terrace providing the perfect spot for outdoor dining and relaxed evenings. Beyond this, the garden is mostly laid to lawn with some flower beds framing the space with structure and colour. There are steps leading to a raised platform that currently houses a generous garden store, although this could be replaced with a modern garden studio. The garden feels both private and inviting, offering a peaceful backdrop that's simple to maintain yet full of charm.

Location

The property is in the highly sought after area of Hyde, a historic Victorian suburb and resting place of King Alfred the Great. Known for its period homes, leafy gardens and village like feel, Hyde offers a thriving community, an excellent local primary school in St Bedes and an easy walk to the city centre.

River Park recreation fields are at the end of nearby Nuns Road and offer attractive walks, cycles or runs straight from the front door. There are landmarks like Hyde Abbey and St Bartholomew's adding historic interest and character along the way, providing a blend of heritage, green space, and city
convenience. The pedestrianised high street is 0.7 miles from the property and contains a full range of amenities including independent shops, boutiques, restaurants, cafes and public
houses. There is a variety of cultural and leisure facilities such as The Arc Discovery Centre and Library, local cinema, Theatre Royal and the sports and leisure park.

There are excellent communications links across the country with the mainline railway station around 0.5 miles from the property providing access to London in under 60 minutes. The motorway network via the M3 at junctions 9 or 11 is particularly accessible, along with the A34 to the north and the M27 coastal motorway, providing access to the New Forest and Southampton International Airport.

Winchester contains excellent schooling with several highly regarded local schools nearby, including St Bedes Primary School (0.4 miles), The Westgate Secondary School (1.1 miles), and Peter Symonds Sixth Form college (0.7 miles).
