St Cross, SO23

The Property:
Tucked away and set back from the pretty street in St Cross, Palmerston Court enjoys peace and quiet, and a great location. Upon entering the property is a spacious entrance way. To the front of the property are the two double bedrooms, both with plenty of natural light, built in storage and the principal bedroom enjoys access to the very generous private terrace. Going through the property, to the right is the bathroom and separate cloakroom, both with underfloor heating. To the left is the extremely spacious reception room with views of the garden. Given its size this could be used as a sitting/dining room but currently works well as a sitting room and study space given the natural light and double aspect. The kitchen has been refurbished and kept to a high standard and has room for a table. Externally, in addition to the private terrace, are beautifully maintained communal gardens which residents enjoy. The double garage is very generous and is currently used for parking as well as a home-gym and generous storage area.

The Location:
Situated in St. Cross which is among one of the most desirable positions within Winchester. Just to the south of the City and located within minutes of the City Centre, St. Cross is particularly well-known for its access to The Water Meadows and the pleasant walks they afford into the City Centre, through the ancient part of the City, the college and the Cathedral. The City Centre and its amenities offer first class shopping, a varied range of restaurants, cinema, theatre and sports centre. Communications are excellent, with the mainline railway station running a service to London Waterloo (approximately 60 minutes) and the M3, A34, A303 and M27 all easily accessible. Schools in Winchester are first class, with St. Faith's Primary School nearby being highly sought after. There is a wide variety of further state and private schools in the area including Pilgrims & Winchester College a short walk away, Twyford School, Peter Symonds VI Form College and St. Swithun's School about two miles away.
