Hope Cottage, Easton, Winchester SO21

An immaculately presented modern cottage in the middle of this popular village. Easton is conveniently located to the north east of Winchester, with good access to the national road network. Winchester railway station is a 15 minute drive away. The highlight has to be the sizeable kitchen/dining room, with bi-fold doors which open to the attractive, westerly-facing garden. There is parking for two cars and a garage.

The property is approached via a Redwood gate from the driveway, with a path to the front door, which is protected by an attractive Oak framed porch. The entrance hall has an understairs cupboard and stairs to the first floor, and timber flooring which flows into the sitting room, which features a wood-burning stove. Off the hall is a shower room, with a modern white suite, and a utility cupboard with concealed sink and appliances. A door opens from the hallway to the wonderful kitchen/dining/family room, which is completely open-plan and allows access to the garden via wide bi-fold doors. Features include travertine flooring and a high quality kitchen with shaker-style units with granite worktops, a matching island unit with an induction hob and integral extractor, boiler tap and breakfast bar. Quality appliances are built in, and there is a water softener and waste disposal unit. There is plenty of space for a dining table, sofas and easy chairs.

Upstairs, there is a loft hatch on the landing with a built-in loft ladder. It's worth noting the loft is partially boarded. Both the bedrooms at the rear of the house have built-in wardrobes and lovely views over the garden. There is a third double bedroom with views of the front garden, and a modern bathroom with bath and separate shower cubicle.

The pretty front garden is enclosed by hedging and allows access to the front door, as well as the neighbouring cottage. A gate to the side of the cottage leads through to the delightful rear garden, which has been landscaped to create a wonderful, secluded haven with paved seating areas, flower and shrub borders, a lawn, Summer house with power & lighting, and outside lighting. The garage is used as a workshop, but would fit a small car. There is parking for two cars on the driveway.
