A house of stature

This charming Grade II listed detached family home, of beautiful brick and flint elevations, is positioned well within lovely gardens and most rooms enjoy a fabulous outlook over the grounds and paddocks and fields beyond.

Although dating to the early 19th century a sympathetic extension creates an impressive approach to the property, whilst internally many original features including original windows and exposed beams create a comforting blend of period and modern living.

Spacious rooms are well designed for modern living and the sitting room is a fabulous space with a wood burning fire, underfloor heating and twin pairs of French doors to the garden. The spacious and modern kitchen/breakfast room provides an area perfect for entertaining friends and family. There are many integrated appliances together with a breakfast bar, granite work surfaces, American oak flooring and a brick recess for a range style oven. This room has an open aspect through to a lovely family room which has a continuation of the beamed ceiling and an exposed brick wall, wood burning stove and French doors to the garden which enjoys a south easterly aspect.

A secondary access to one side leads into a lobby with plenty of storage and a cloakroom.

Floor to ceiling glazing on the landing provides a dramatic view into the distance and branching off are three double bedrooms, each with its own bath or shower room and good storage. There is also a family bathroom on this floor which serves the two additional bedrooms on the top floor.

Located within the hamlet of Silkstead, between Hursley and Shawford, Winchester is just a few minutes’ drive away.

Silkstead Lodge sits in beautifully landscaped gardens of about half an acre, approached over a spacious driveway with plenty of parking and leading to the detached double garage. Attached to the garage is additional accommodation which is arranged as a kitchenette and cloakroom on the ground floor and stairs rise to a large studio office above. These areas combined have the potential to be adapted to an annexe.
