4 bedroom detached house for sale

An architect-designed family home in one of Winchester’s most desirable addresses.


Set in the heart of Fulflood, a short walk from the mainline train station to London, a location renowned for its leafy streets, excellent schools and easy access to the city centre and station – this impressive detached home offers architectural pedigree, generous proportions and beautifully landscaped gardens.

Designed by award-winning architect Huw Thomas, and available for the first time in 38 years, the property sits elevated and screened from the road within approx 0.25 acres of mature grounds. With over 2,500 sq. ft. of versatile accommodation across four split levels, this is a unique opportunity to secure a landmark family home in Winchester’s most coveted quarter. The house is entered through a dramatic double-height glazed hall, flooding the space with natural light and setting the tone for the home’s distinctive design.

A 21ft double-aspect living room with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, fireplace, and bespoke joinery to the right and to the left: a 24ft triple-aspect open plan kitchen which has an abundance of space for family living and entertaining with French doors opening directly onto the terrace and garden. Also on this level: a double bedroom, shower room, cloakroom and spacious utility room.

A short stairwell leads down to a former garage which is now a generous store and a flexible studio room, perfect as a home office, fifth bedroom or potential annexe. Upstairs, a generous family bathroom, two double bedrooms and the principal suite with en-suite complete the accommodation, each enjoying open views and built-in storage. The gardens are a true highlight of this home, beautifully landscaped to offer privacy, maturity and year-round appeal.

The main south/west-facing garden features a level lawn framed by specimen planting and established shrubs, while a paved terrace beneath a pergola overlooks a tranquil pond, creating the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. A raised circular terrace provides an additional spot for seating and sunshine, and to the rear of the property a kitchen garden and east-facing patio make the most of the morning light. The house is approached via a block-paved driveway with ample parking, and the garage could easily be reinstated if required.
