Property Description
THE PROPERTY A delightful detached three-bedroom property in Winchester's popular suburb of Weeke, close to good local schools, a flat walk to shops and services, and within easy reach of Winchester's main line railway station.
Set back from the road a pathway, with parking on either side, leads to the front door which opens onto the entrance hall, from which all principal rooms may be accessed. From the hallway a sightline directly through the property gives wonderful views of the sunny garden.

The main living space has been extended to create a delightful open plan kitchen/sitting/dining room, with skylights flooding the space with daylight, cleverly zoned for contemporary functionality. The kitchen area is well designed with ample preparation space on polished laminate wood-style worksurfaces, with space for a fridge freezer and high gloss white storage units and integrated utilities below. Windows overlook the sunny garden from two aspects and double doors open to a patio area. A useful cloakroom with a storage cupboard completes the accommodation for this section.

The main bedroom is a large double positioned to the front of the property with room for built-in storage and wardrobes if required. Bedrooms two and three are both doubles, with Bedroom three currently used as a second sitting room, with double doors to the garden. All three rooms are served by a recently updated modern family bathroom with separate shower and bath.

The current owner has obtained planning permission under ref 23/02930/HOU to further extend the property with a loft conversion with two bedrooms and a bathroom.
