Description
Constructed by Vistry Homes and informally known as “Winchester House”, this impressive five-bedroom detached family home features attractive walled gardens and benefits from two parking spaces, as well as a detached single garage. The property offers generous and well-balanced accommodation, beginning with a spacious entrance hall that leads to a large sitting room featuring bi-fold doors opening onto the rear garden. The heart of the home is the well-appointed kitchen, dining and family room, which also enjoys a further set of bi-fold doors creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Additional ground-floor accommodation includes a utility and cloakroom, a study and a separate snug. On the first floor, there are five well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities, along with a modern family bathroom. Featuring many upgrades from new, including quartz kitchen worktops, Siemens and Bosch appliances and bespoke window dressing and curtains, the property benefits from the balance of its NHBC Buildmark cover. To the rear, the low-maintenance walled garden enjoys side access and an extensive patio area, providing an excellent outdoor space that flows beautifully into the house through the striking bi-fold doors. Offered for sale with no onward chain, this is a must-see property set in a very convenient location.
