4 bed detached house for sale

Old Station Road, Winchester, Hampshire SO21

Located in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Itchen Abbas, Station Lodge is a four-bedroom detached family home set within a generous 0.4-acre plot. The property offers exceptional privacy and enjoys stunning views over the surrounding countryside.

Accessed via a traditional five-bar wooden gate, the property opens onto a large gravel driveway with ample parking, framed by mature trees and established shrubs that provide a welcoming and secluded approach.

The front door leads into a spacious entrance hall. To the left, you’ll find a dual-aspect living room, while to the right, a door opens into the formal dining room and a generous study, which flows through to the kitchen. Just off the kitchen is a versatile conservatory and a practical utility room, offering flexible living and entertaining spaces.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. There are three further double bedrooms, 2 of which have built-in wardrobes, and a contemporary family bathroom.

Externally, the property benefits from a detached double garage with an integrated workshop and a staircase leading to a fully boarded loft space. A recently constructed office pod provides an ideal work-from-home solution or creative studio.

The mature, enclosed gardens ensure excellent privacy and are predominantly laid to lawn, offering plenty of space for outdoor entertaining, children’s play, and future landscaping opportunities.

While the property would benefit from some modernisation, it presents a fantastic opportunity for the next owner to update and personalise, creating their dream home in a prime village location.

Planning permission was granted in December 2024 for a substantial single-storey extension and the conversion of the loft into habitable space.
