High Street, Twyford, Winchester, SO21

A period semi-detached cottage full of character and situated in the heart of the sought-after village of Twyford, which is highly regarded by families because of its proximity to the city and station, and due to its active community. The property requires modernisation but features adaptable living space of generous proportions.

The house is entered from the side into a useful enclosed porch and onwards into a small hallway. To the left is a generous double aspect dining room with original exposed beams, a charming original oak window seat and plenty of space for a large table and chairs. A door leads through to an incredibly spacious sitting room, also with an attractive beamed ceiling, a log burner inset within a feature fireplace and sliding doors opening out onto the conservatory. The conservatory itself is lovely and bright with a door leading directly to the garden. To the right of the hallway is the smart kitchen which had new units and flooring fitted approximately five years ago. A door gives access to the garden and a useful downstairs WC located off the dining room completes the accommodation on the ground floor.

Upstairs on the first floor there are four bedrooms, two of which have built-in wardrobes. All bedrooms are served by a shower room with large shower and hand basin, while a separate WC is situated alongside.

Outside to the rear is a pretty garden, mainly laid to lawn with a paved seating area next to the conservatory and further paving directly behind the house. A handy garden tool cupboard is attached to the main house, accessed from the garden.
