Canon Street, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23

A stunning city renovation located along Canon Street.

Description

35A Canon Street is an attractive three bedroom Victorian mid-terrace cottage. Believed to have been built in the 1840s, this three storey property was completely gutted and refurbished in 2023-2024, with works including a new roof; substantial bedroom with north and south dormer windows; new bathroom with power shower and free-standing bath; new ground-floor WC; new hand-built staircases and front door; insulated wood laminate ground flooring; replumbing with a new combi boiler; multi-fuel chimney flue; and a complete rewire. The feature sash windows have been refurbished and double-glazed, and fitted with custom-made shutters, and all other windows replaced with easy-to-maintain UPVC.

Newly-refurbished with an exceptional finish and to exacting standards, this beautifully presented property blends period charm with an exquisite modern interior, a unique attribute in this current market. From the welcoming entrance, the open ground floor features high ceilings and an abundance of natural daylight from tall sash windows, which then enjoy a Southerly aspect. This spacious living room has ample wall space to suit free standing furniture and a fireplace which would suit the inset of a gas or open fire. The living room adjoins the kitchen/dining room, this lovely sized room also features a ceiling and a view of the private courtyard. The kitchen itself is fitted with a comprehensive range of units and integrated Neff/Miele appliances which include a combination micro/oven, induction hob and dishwasher. A doorway leads through to a usefully sized utility/boot room, which has space/plumbing for a freestanding fridge/freezer and washing machine/dryer and a further doorway leads through to a cloakroom/WC. The utility opens out on to the private courtyard.

The versatile sleeping accommodation is arranged across a first and second floor, with a substantial principal bedroom which incorporates a large recessed cupboard and a delightful dual Southerly aspect with privacy shutters. The adjacent third bedroom has double proportions and the luxurious bathroom suite incorporates a freestanding power shower, free standing deep bath tub, a large vanity unit and a remotely operated ceiling Velux window. The second floor bedrooms have recently been reconfigured to create an exceptional space, with a lovely view to front and to the rear whereby you can see Winchester cathedral.

Outside, the attractive and quiet private courtyard has a new hand built close board fence and an insulated summer house with mains power and ethernet connectivity.

The house is situated in the heart of the highly sought-after Winchester conservation area, on a unique street that is famed both for its architectural importance and the warmth of the community.
