This super property is an excellent proposition for those who hanker after period features as well as practical, bright and well-presented family accommodation superbly located for Winchester mainline station and good local schools nearby. Many of the desirable features of its age are evident, including high ceilings, a lovely, tiled floor in the hall and beautiful fireplaces. These features successfully mix with attractive modern upgrades including the fitted kitchen, the bathroom and the WC/utility area.

An inviting hallway, with that lovely, tiled floor, greets visitors and leads firstly to an elegant sitting room at the front of the house with attractive period style marble fireplace flanked by cupboards with shelves above. The room also features cornicing, dado rails and a large bay window overlooking the front. Beyond the sitting room there is a separate dining room with wooden floors, another period fireplace and double doors out to the garden. The rear of the house contains a bright, fitted kitchen with plenty of units, butler sink, space for appliances and a door directly out to the garden. Beyond the kitchen is a useful utility room and downstairs cloakroom.

The first floor has an elegant, light-filled double bedroom which is a super size across the front with two windows, and there are two further bedrooms here as well as a modern family shower room. There is the potential to convert the loft subject to permissions as others have done in the road.

Outside to the rear of the property the garden is hard landscaped so very low maintenance. Permit parking is available in Zone M.

Parchment Street is superbly positioned for the mainline railway station (links to London Waterloo in approximately 60 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 St Bede Primary and Westgate Secondary.
