Many people are drawn to Winchester as the perfect place to live and it has become a bustling commuter hub with excellent road and rail connections. Of course, for those who are regularly jumping on the train, proximity to the station is key.

Here at Fairfield Road, this charming Victorian house lies within a five minute walk of the station; and for those who don’t need this amenity, it is also well located for local schools, shops and the lovely city centre with its wealth of history and excellent shops, cafes, restaurants, theatre, cinema, galleries and other leisure opportunities, including acres of open parkland.

Many of the original period features have been retained including ornamental fireplaces and sash windows, creating a lovely atmosphere.

The house has been adapted, however, to better provide for 21st century living and now benefits from a spacious loft conversion where there is a double bedroom, with two good size bedrooms and a large family bathroom on the first floor. All bedrooms have fitted storage.

In addition to the two reception rooms, smart kitchen, utility room and cloakroom on the ground floor, there is also a workshop or office at the end of the pretty garden.

A programme of redecoration is planned before tenants move in so the house will be beautifully presented for the new occupiers.

Located on a quiet residential street, there is permit parking available.

Purdie & Swan says the house could be available before the planned 17 June date if required and it is offered on an unfurnished basis at a monthly rent of £1,850.
