4 bed detached house for sale

Andover Road North, Winchester SO22

A fabulous example of a 1930s detached family house, one of only a few built in this decade in Winchester. There is a large kitchen/breakfast room, three receptions rooms (one ideal as a fourth bedroom), three double bedrooms and three bathrooms, all sitting within the most exquisite westerly facing gardens.

The property offers immense versatility in layout as well as potential for extensions, for which the current owner previously acquired planning permission to extend the property across the first floor and whilst this has now lapsed, it should be possible to be reapplied for.

The property A fabulous example of a 1930s detached family house, one of only a few built in this decade in Winchester.

The property offers immense versatility in layout as well as potential for extensions, for which the current owner previously acquired planning permission to extend the property across the first floor (ref 12/00918/ful), and whilst this has now lapsed, it should be possible to be reapplied for.

In 2025/6, our client extended the ground floor accommodation into the former garage, to create a beautifully designed home office/utility and cloakroom, which adds to the versatility of the ground floor accommodation.

An attractive front garden with gravelled driveway leads to the (covered porch) and into a gracious hallway which leads, in turn, to all main rooms. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of shaker style cabinetry, with copious wall and base units with under pelmet lighting, fitted dishwasher, and space for a large range cooker which sits under a striking copper canopy. There is ample room for a breakfast table, and a door to the garden terrace.

The sitting room is a wonderful room, running the depth of this home, with deep bow window to the front, and sliding doors to the rear, flooding the room with light. There is an attractive feature fireplace and uplighters around the room. This leads in the dining room, also with doors to the terrace and rear garden, and there is a door into the study (ideal for use as a fourth bedroom), which overlooks the front garden.

From the hallway, an attractive staircase leads to the first floor, where a generous landing leads to all three bedrooms, two of which have ensuite bathrooms. The principal bedroom replicates the bow window in the sitting room below. It benefits from wall of wardrobes and a large ensuite shower room, sitting under Velux windows. Bedroom two also has a large ensuite shower room and benefits from eaves storage areas. Bedroom three is a further double bedroom; the family bathroom has a bath, shower and basin, and there is a separate cloakroom, offering further flexibility of accommodation.

The gardens are a special joy at Hillsborough. The front garden is filled with shrubs and borders and has ample space for seating area. The rear garden is also fabulous. There is a deep paved terrace, leading onto the lawn, which is interspersed with hedging and borders, cleverly splitting the garden areas into sections which families may welcome for vegetable gardens and play areas.

Hillsborough is enviably located for walking distance to both the town centre and railway station, but also more local amenities on Stoney Lane such as a co-op, Boots chemist, Costa Coffee, but also Waitrose and Aldi, Friarsgate gp surgery, and various takeaways and restaurants.

School Catchments: The property is within catchment for, and easy walking distance of, Harestock Primary School, Henry Beaufort Senior School, and the renowned Peter Symonds 6th Form College.
