An exceptional family home, dating from the 1900's, located on the outskirts of Winchester within the hamlet of Pitt.
The White Cottage is finished beautifully throughout, having undergone a major extension and refurbishment programme over recent years. Internally the property blends period features, like original beams, with modern design offering elegance and contemporary living. The property has original stone flooring, two inglenook fireplaces and delightful cottage features. The heart of this home is a modern extension to the rear providing a superb, free-flowing kitchen/dining/family room finished to the highest of standards to include underfloor heating, ceiling speakers and Velux windows. A Neptune fitted kitchen (only two years old) has been thoughtfully designed with all the appliances you would expect such as a Quooker tap, integrated appliances, central preparation island with a Belfast sink, and an AGA. This spectacular room also has comfortable dining and family areas with views over the garden and bi-fold doors to the patio. Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room, with a separate useful boot room and cloakroom. A generous living room features floor to ceiling windows and an inglenook fireplace with a woodburner, oak parquet flooring which runs through the hallway and living room. An office/playroom provides additional space and there is a shower room and a second guest cloakroom ideal for access from the swimming pool.On the first floor is a stunning principal bedroom which has recently been refurbished to include a luxury mezzanine bathing area as well as a separate en suite shower room and adjoining dressing room. The owners have included heated flooring, Porcelanosa porcelain tiles and a Victoria and Albert style bath. There are three further comfortable bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, and a family bathroom. On the second floor are two rooms (one with an en suite shower room) which could be used as ancillary accommodation, or a games/cinema room.There is a generous driveway with plenty of parking secured behind double electric gates. There is also a covered car port within a thatched building which also provides a home gym facility and log store. The property sits within a plot of approximately 0.4 acre and has a newly constructed heated swimming pool with plenty of terrace space ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining. The professionally landscaped garden is private and mainly laid to lawn, screened by mature hedges and trees creating a tranquil environment.
Set amidst breathtaking rolling countryside the property sits in a rural location, yet with all the associated benefits of city living. Winchester is a thriving city with a good selection of restaurants and shops as well as plenty of cultural and culinary festivals. There are sporting opportunities, theatres and a cinema as well as the word-famous Cathedral. There are lovely walks in the area including up St Catherine's Hill, along the River Itchen and within the South Downs National Park. There is a wide selection of well-regarded state and private schools in the area.
