LOCATION: Wentworth Grange was developed in the 1990's and is a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of St Cross, set within walking distance of the Water Meadows, The Queen Inn, Wickham Arms and Winchester Cathedral. The properties are an attractive mix of terraced townhouses, built around a central green area, and detached family homes where the residents get together for an annual summer garden party.

The St Cross area is one of the prime residential locations of Winchester. The mix of ancient buildings, Roman, Norman and medieval as well as river walks, leafy gardens and wide tree lined streets, coupled with open playing fields and a flat walk into the town centre, past the walls of Winchester College and the Cathedral, all combine to make this an attractive and highly sought after place to live.

The historic town centre with its wide range of shops, boutiques, cafés and eateries and public houses, is within walking distance, as well as the Winchester Railway Station for easy access to London Waterloo. Further entertainment and interest can be found in the river walks, the theatre, cinema, many museums and the city's stunning cathedral.
