Hampton Lane, Winchester, SO22

The Property:

This well-proportioned detached family sized house provides beautifully light and airy accommodation over two floors and was newly constructed for our clients at the turn of the century. The house has pleasing mellow brick elevations under a clay tiled roof and there is a glorious climbing hydrangea adorning the front. The property benefits from a welcoming entrance hall with an oak floor, a turning staircase to the first floor with an arched top window which provides ample natural light to the hall and landing. A pair of doors open into the spacious ‘live in’ style kitchen/sitting/dining room which is a large double aspect room with two sets of doors that open into the garden, with plenty of space for a large dining table, sofas and chairs. The kitchen has been fitted to one corner with a range of hand painted ‘in frame’ shaker style units, with polished wooden countertops, fitted range cooker, American style fridge/freezer and dishwasher. An oak floor runs throughout this space, which is great for everyday living and entertaining. A separate family room/study has a bay window to the front aspect, and the drawing room again has doors that open into the rear garden. There is also a cloakroom and separate utility/laundry room which complete the ground floor. The impressive part galleried landing leads to four excellent double bedrooms served by a bathroom and additional shower room. Externally, the gardens to the front incorporate a gravel carriage driveway with a centralised lawn with mature shrubs. Access to the rear garden can be found each side of the property. A shaped deck sits directly behind the house, graduating to lawn and is enclosed by hedging and close board fencing. There are several mature trees including a silver birch.
