This beautiful detached house at Shawford near Winchester dates back to the 1930s and has been carefully extended to now provide more than 3,300 square feet of elegant accommodation and garaging

White Lodge sits in more than half an acre of established gardens on Fairfield Road and from here there is fast access to the local train station and Winchester is just a short drive away.

Beautifully presented throughout the ground floor is dominated by the superb 30ft drawing room and the excellent kitchen. The drawing room has glazed doors to a dual aspect formal dining room with doors to the garden and the kitchen is very well fitted with space for casual dining and doors to additional storage, a rear lobby with access to the garden, utility room and a separate sitting room.

The master suite is superb with an exceptional bathroom incorporating a bath and walk-in shower area. There are two further large double bedrooms, one with its own shower room, two more bedrooms, ideal for children, and a large family bathroom.

Behind the hedgerow frontage, a sweeping driveway has two gated entrances and provides extensive parking and access to the double garage. The gardens extend to the side and rear of the house and are lawned with trees and hedges to the boundaries. A swimming pool is fenced off from the garden and there is a lower section, ideal as a play area.

Available for occupation from the end of May, Charters says a monthly rent of £3,250 is sought. Contact the lettings team on 01962 830880 for more information.
