3 bed semi-detached house for sale

School Road, Twyford SO21

Down a private walkway off School Road in Twyford sits this semi-detached cottage, believed to date back to the late 1800s. The current owners have opened up the ground floor to create a spacious kitchen, dining and family room, and it's easy to see why this has become the space where everyday life happens.

The kitchen was refitted within the last five years and has a shaker design, with oak worktops, a butler sink and a central island with an induction hob. A patterned tile splashback adds character behind the units, and there's room for a wine cooler alongside the double oven. French doors lead out to the garden, so on warmer days the space opens up further, whether that's a school morning rush or friends round for dinner.

Away from the kitchen, the living room is a separate, cosy space. The decor here has been chosen deliberately, designed to make the room feel relaxed once the wood burner is lit. Built-in bookshelves sit either side of the chimney breast, and a door leads down to a tanked cellar room. Currently used as a home office and small gym, this could just as easily become a playroom or family den, depending on what's needed.

Upstairs, the main bedroom benefits from air conditioning and its own en-suite shower room, and there's a separate family bathroom serving the other two bedrooms. From the landing window, there are views out towards St Mary's Church, a reminder of just how much history sits on the doorstep here. Downstairs, a cloakroom off the dining area, accessed via a rear lobby, adds everyday practicality.

Outside, the property benefits from two separate garden spaces. The front garden, reached via the walkway and softened by mature wisteria, offers a private spot to sit. The rear garden, accessed from the kitchen and dining room, is larger than average and not overlooked, with a pergola, greenhouse and established planting giving plenty of scope for anyone who enjoys being outdoors.

Twyford itself is a historic village on the River Itchen, within the South Downs National Park and about four miles from Winchester. There's a good spread of everyday amenities, including a Post Office, a café, a doctor's surgery and pharmacy, along with pubs including the Bugle Inn and the Phoenix Inn. Twyford School sits in the village, and St Mary's Primary School serves the local area too. For families wanting to put down roots here, this cottage offers a genuine way into village life.

If village life in Twyford has been on your radar, this could be the right place to start. Get in touch with Fairmonts to arrange a viewing and see the space for yourself.
