House For Sale £1,950,000
Attractive Grade II Listed period home.
Location
St, James Lane is situated on the southern edge of the city in an elevated position with superb views over St. Cross to the countryside beyond. The property is ideally located within a few minutes’ walk of the pedestrian precinct in the High Street, and also the railway station, only approximately half a mile away. Winchester College and the water meadows of St. Cross, which stretch along the banks of the River Itchen, are very convenient and offer superb walks through the historical cathedral streets, the water meadows and on to St. Catherine's Hill.
Winchester is a mere 60 minutes by train from London Waterloo. The M3 motorway (junctions 9,10 and 11) is within easy reach, making both London and Southampton readily accessible. The interconnection with the M27 makes Southampton International Airport easily commutable, and also opens up the South Coast and New Forest. The A34 to the north provides access to Oxford, the Midlands and the A303 to the West Country.

From the welcoming entrance hall the reception rooms are accessed. To the right there is an elegant drawing room with wooden floors, a central fireplace and views out over the garden. To the left there is a sitting room with double doors opening into the dining room. The kitchen/dining room is to the rear of the house, with French doors opening out on to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wooden units with a range style cooker integrated appliances and a central island. There is a cloakroom completing the accommodation on this floor.
The first floor consists of the principal bedroom which enjoys views out towards St. Catherine’s Hill.

A further bedroom and shower room are found on the top floor.
Completing the accommodation is the lower ground floor which comprises two further reception rooms, a utility room, (which also includes a shower) a cloak room and the boiler room. This could make useful additional self-contained annexe accommodation should it be required.
Outside
The house is accessed through electric wrought iron gates. A gravel driveway to the front of the house provides parking for several cars. Here there is a distinctive octagonal outbuilding, providing garden storage. There is a lovely red brick wall on the Eastern boundary alongside which is a shrub and herbaceous border and an area laid to lawn. To the rear of the house the terraced garden is partly bordered by a very pretty brick and flint wall. It has been cleverly landscaped to provide low maintenance gardening and with plenty of space for outdoor dining.
