Segars Lane Twyford Winchester, Hampshire, SO21 1QJ

Luxurious 17th century Grade II Listed semi-detached barn conversion nestled in the picturesque village of Twyford.

Welcome to a timeless retreat tucked away at the end of a tranquil country lane. This remarkable property boasts a rich history, having been originally built in the 17th century and masterfully converted in 1991. Embracing the charm of its heritage, the exterior showcases striking black shiplap and stock bricks, exuding an air of sophistication.

Upon entering through the stable door, you're greeted by an inviting open-plan farmhouse kitchen and dining area adorned with classic flagstone floors and a charming pantry. The space seamlessly flows into an incredible sitting room, featuring exposed oak beamed vaulted ceilings and a cosy log burning stove, perfect for evenings of relaxation.

The main bedroom suite offers a serene escape full of character with an en-suite shower room and fitted wardrobes. From the open-plan kitchen and dining room a staircase leads to a galleried landing adorned with oak beams. Two additional double bedrooms boast vaulted ceilings and oak beams, creating spaces filled with character and warmth. A family bathroom with a luxurious bath completes the accommodation, offering comfort and style.

Step outside the stable door to be greeted by landscaped gardens that offer breathtaking views of the South Downs. For outdoor entertaining, a delightful seating area with a pergola draped in wisteria creates an idyllic setting for moments of relaxation. A charming covered hazel hurdle seating area overlooks a wonderful pond, inviting guests to indulge in the tranquillity of the surroundings.

The property also boasts exceptional equestrian facilities, including circa 10 acres of natural herb-rich grazing divided into four well-drained paddocks. With seven 12 x 12 Windsor Stables and hardstanding for horseboxes, trailers and parking, this estate is a haven for horse enthusiasts. Mains connected double water troughs, electric fencing, and year-round turnout ensure the utmost convenience and care for the horses. There is plenty of room to build a manège and a horse walker, although the current owners prefer to school and jump in their designated schooling paddock, as the ground is flat and well drained. Furthermore, two expansive barns, one currently a workshop, could with the relevant planning permissions convert into an annexe or integrate to create an incredible family home. The location offers access to an array of bridleways, providing incredible hacking opportunities in the surrounding areas, including Shawford, Compton, Owlesbury, Marwell, Hensting Lane, Longwood, Cheesefoot Head, and the South Downs. Plus, nearby showgrounds of Sparsholt College.

Set against the banks of the crystal-clear waters of the River Itchen Navigation, this property harmonizes history, comfort, and the allure of the countryside, promising an unparalleled lifestyle in a secluded yet accessible location. Whether you seek a tranquil sanctuary or dream of an equestrian haven, this remarkable residence stands as a testament to timeless elegance and rural sophistication.
