This classically proportioned period property benefits from generous room sizes, as well as the benefits of excellent local schools nearby, including Western Primary, Westgate through school and Peter Symonds Sixth Form College. The property retains many original period features including lovely high ceilings, cornicing, sash windows and a beautiful fireplace. The house has been extended in the past, with the addition of a utility to one side and a conservatory-style dining room at the rear, as well as with a loft conversion to produce a fourth bedroom. There is scope for some modernisation and further extension if desired.

The welcoming sitting room at the front is a lovely light space courtesy of an impressive bay window and features a handsome period fireplace. Beyond the sitting room is another large reception/family room, which has access through to the kitchen and double doors out to the lean-to style utility room adjacent. A bright kitchen lies at the rear, with an array of base and eye-level units and space for a range cooker within the chimney breast. The room opens out into a most appealing dining conservatory - a lovely place to sit and enjoy the outlook over the garden.

On the first floor there is a lovely double bedroom with large bay window across the front, and this enjoys an en-suite shower room. There are two other well- appointed bedrooms on this floor, one of which has double doors opening out to a balcony, and a family bathroom. Stairs rise from the landing to a large double room in the converted loft space.

The rear garden is fully enclosed with a patio across the rear leading to a lawn beyond. At the bottom of the garden is a large, attractive area of decking with a garden shed.

Fairfield Road is superbly positioned for easy access to the mainline railway station (links to London Waterloo in approximately 55 minutes), and city with its high street shops, boutiques, library, coffee shops, public houses, restaurants, theatre, cinema, museums and, of course, the city's historic cathedral. The house is situated in the catchment for good local schools including Western Primary and Westgate Secondary, and is close to Peter Symonds College and its grounds. The road itself is very desirable, being populated with some of the more substantial period houses available to Winchester buyers.
