Old Dairy Cottage lies on the outskirts of Winchester and is now connected to the city by attractive suburbs where once fields lay. Built in the Victorian era the original occupiers of the house would have enjoyed a rural lifestyle in contrast to today where the purchasers can look forward to taking advantage of the proximity of local shops and amenities as well as those in the city, mainline train station, and excellent schools for all ages.

Exquisitely designed with a brick and flint façade, the house has been meticulously updated in recent times to produce a family home of great character and charm where period features such as exposed structural timbers blend beautifully with modern touches. The accommodation is also versatile with suggested space for working from home as well as lovely living space and large bedrooms.

The kitchen is the heart of the home and fitted with simple lines of a Bulthaup design which leaves ample room for a dining table. The vaulted ceiling creates impact in this room and there is a secondary access to the front of the property. There is a walk-in larder at one end of the kitchen and access to a utility room at the other. In the middle of the house is a cosy family room with a gas fire and a door to a boot room at the rear and adjacent cloakroom. There is also an elegant sitting room with two fireplaces, one with a wood burning stove and the other with a former bread oven. This room has French doors to the garden, perfect for extending the living space through warmer months. There is also a door to the garden from a rear lobby together with access to a dry cellar.

On the first floor the master bedroom has built-in wardrobes and en suite shower with two further connecting rooms on this floor next to the large and very stylish family bathroom.

The second floor has excellent ceiling height where two further double bedrooms are located, both with exposed timbers and plenty of fitted storage.

The house nestles comfortably within its front garden where there is a variety of shrubs and trees around a lawn and plenty of parking space in front of the double garage. A large garden lies to the rear with a highly desirable south westerly aspect and where mature trees and shrubs to the boundaries provide seclusion.

Old Dairy Cottage carries an asking price of £1,200,000
