Stockers Avenue, Winchester, SO22

The Property:

With five bedrooms, four modern bathrooms, three reception rooms and a fabulous rear garden, this is arguably the perfect detached family home. Tastefully and imaginatively extended over two floors by the current owner, the property provides well-proportioned and versatile family accommodation. The large entrance hall is an impressive space which leads to the formal sitting room with a wood burning stove, wooden floors and bi-folding doors into the magnificent dining room across the back of the house, which is also accessed from the kitchen. The kitchen too has been extended, creating a lovely space for entertaining, with a large central island and oak and quartz worksurfaces. The study has a built in storage unit with useful shelving and cupboards below, the room provides a quiet retreat for home working with a lovely view over the garden. The utility room is an excellent space which provides access to the garage, housing a water softener.

The first floor is home to the five double bedrooms, the principal suite boasting a large four-piece ensuite and lovely dressing area with windows overlooking the garden. Two further bedrooms have ensuite shower rooms whilst the fourth and fifth rooms are served by a modern bathroom.

To the front is a large block-paved driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles beside well-stocked shrub borders. The rear garden is a lovely space, lovingly tended over many years and stocked with specimen plants and shrubs providing year-round colour and dappled shade. There are a number of mature trees to the lower end of the garden, beneath which is a garden shed, summer house and small vegetable plot. The property also benefits from solar panels which were installed around 2018, making the property very energy efficient and improving the energy performance rating.
