This classically proportioned townhouse occupies an outstanding position on the south eastern corner of Peninsula Square boasting fine views over Winchester and countryside beyond from the rear and the peaceful outlook at the front over the exquisite formal gardens.

This particular house, being at the end of this impressive row of townhouses, enjoys an abundance of light with all principal rooms benefitting from dual aspect sash windows. This, combined with exceptionally high ceilings, creates wonderful living space over three floors.

From the wide entrance hall double doors open to a reception room at the front of the house, equally suitable as a study or snug, and then on through to the extensive kitchen and open plan dining room at the rear which opens to the garden.

The drawing room, with its ornate fireplace, is on the first floor and enjoys spectacular views as does the master bedroom suite which lies above, complete with its own bathroom and walk-in closet.

There is a second spacious bedroom suite, two further bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes, and a family shower room.

The part-walled garden is exceptionally private and enjoys a southerly aspect with outstanding views from the top terrace. Steps lead down to a lower terrace which is ideal for alfresco dining. There is a further paved area to the side of the property, as well as gated access to the rear and a garden store. There are two designated parking spaces as well as visitor parking

The property is well-placed to take advantage of the city with its extensive amenities and excellent cultural, shopping and leisure facilities. The railway station is less than half a mile away with fast connections into Waterloo making regular commuting bearable and flitting up to West End shows, exhibitions and restaurants a delight.
