Parchment Street, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23

Set back from the street behind a mature hedge, this delightful home offers privacy and a sense of tranquillity. A pathway leads to a recessed entrance porch, opening into a welcoming hall with polished floorboards, a decorative plaster arch with corbels, and a staircase with storage beneath.

The sitting/dining room is light and inviting, with an east–west aspect, a front bay window with sash openers, and a charming period fireplace flanked by bespoke cupboards. Stripped and polished floorboards run throughout, while a rear window frames views of the garden, creating a bright and airy space for relaxing and entertaining.

The beautifully refitted kitchen combines traditional charm with modern convenience. Cream ‘in-frame’ cabinetry, bronze handles, and white marble-style countertops are complemented by a range-style cooker, integrated dishwasher, and butler sink. A heated ceramic-tiled floor adds comfort, while a clever banquette-style breakfast nook creates a cozy spot for casual dining. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is light-filled and features polished floorboards, a period fireplace, and fitted wardrobes. A second double bedroom overlooks the rear garden and includes a fireplace, fitted shelving, and picture rail, while a third bedroom makes an ideal single room or study. The modern family bathroom is fitted with a panelled bath with shower over, WC, and basin.

The rear garden is a true haven, with a terrace leading onto a lawn bordered by flowers and shrubs. A stunning wisteria frames the rear elevation, while an additional patio and storage shed provide practical outdoor space.

This property enjoys a superb location, with Winchester mainline railway station just minutes away (London Waterloo in approximately 60 minutes) and the city’s High Street, boutiques, cafes, restaurants, theatres, cinema, museums, and historic Cathedral within easy reach. It also falls within the catchment for highly regarded local schools, including St. Bede Primary and Westgate Secondary.
