Summary - WITTS COTTAGE WONSTON ROAD SUTTON SCOTNEY WINCHESTER SO21 3GX
3 bed 1 bath Cottage
Restored 17th-century home with south garden and separate oak studio.
Grade II Listed 17th-century thatched property with original timbers
Witts Cottage is a picture-postcard Grade II Listed thatched home dating from the 17th century, recently renovated to combine period character with modern family living. Exposed timbers, flagstone and limestone floors and feature beams sit alongside a vaulted kitchen/breakfast room with plentiful natural light. The ground floor includes a cosy sitting room with wood-burner and a versatile movie room with direct garden access.
A major practical benefit is the 2022 oak-framed garden annexe, insulated and suited to a home office, studio or hobby space. The southerly landscaped garden, terrace and vegetable patch provide private outdoor living and attract wildlife. Practical additions include a gated driveway with parking for 3–4 cars and an EV charging point.
Buyers should note material constraints: the property is Grade II Listed and in a conservation area, which will restrict exterior and structural changes and can complicate maintenance. The house has oil-fired heating and solid walls (assumed uninsulated), an existing septic tank, one bathroom for three double bedrooms and a medium flooding risk. Council Tax Band F is expensive. Trees on the plot are subject to a Tree Preservation Order.
Set in Sutton Scotney, the location offers village amenities, countryside walks on the Watercress Way and easy access to Winchester, good local schools and rail/road links. The home will suit buyers seeking historic character, flexible family space and a ready-to-use annex, while accepting the upkeep and regulatory limits of a listed thatched property.
