A wonderful cottage near the city centre with elements dating back to the late 1200's. Replete with historical charm and an array of period features, this lovely property represents an excellent chance to sympathetically refurbish a characterful home. Offering two bedrooms, living room, kitchen, timber conservatory and a particularly special riverside garden extending over 100ft.
Originally part of a terrace of cottages built in the late 1200's, this characterful cottage was partially built in the 1600's but still retains some of its original timbers.
Approach
The front door leads into a porch, with a further door into the kitchen/dining room.
Kitchen/Dining Room A good sized kitchen with room to dine. The units have been upgraded, and there is an integrated oven with electric hob over, an cupboards for further storage. The marvellous period features are immediately apparent, with exposed timber beams, medieval English oak panelling and stone detail. There is access to a cupboard under the stairs for extra storage.
Hall Stairs rising to first floor, doors to kitchen and sitting room.
Sitting Room Fireplace with exposed brick surround. Exposed beams. Large-format sliding doors to the conservatory.
Conservatory Varnished-timber conservatory with brick base and blinds. Tiled floor. Double-doors to the garden.
Bedroom One A simply stunning room. Beautifully textured and ancient beams into the pitch and walls. There is a chance that the solid wide oak floorboards in this room are reclaimed deck boards from old galleons.
Bedroom Two The large single bedroom also has a highlight of its own. The view out of the window offers one of the unique viewpoints of Winchester landmarks that only houses in this particular row affords. Both the Cathedral and Wolvesey Castle are pride of place beyond the river.
Shower Room Large double shower with double shower and large-format tiling. Basin, toilet and cupboard housing the boiler.
Hall Access to loft, with ladder. The loft is a generous boarded space in 2 sections, a larger section with a Velux skylight, and a smaller area over the sitting room.
Garden Another strong highlight - the garden is over 100 ft long, with very detailed and mature planting the borders a meandering path from the patio to the river. There is a section of lawn and a sitting area directly adjacent to the water. A truly rare privilege.
