Summary - 8 AUSTEN AVENUE WINCHESTER SO22 4HP
6 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious six-bed family home with double garage and terraced garden.
Six bedrooms and two reception rooms across two storeys
A large, well-proportioned detached family house set on a generous south-west facing plot in desirable Olivers Battery. The property offers versatile accommodation across two floors — six bedrooms, two reception rooms and extensive terraced gardens — making it ideal for growing families who need space for living, working and play. Bright double-aspect living areas and large windows capture far-reaching views from the front elevation.
Practical features include a full-width double garage with power and light, a driveway for several cars, and a useful utility room with garden and garage access. The kitchen is fitted in solid wood with plentiful worktop and storage and space for casual dining. The split-level garden, with patios, lawn, shed and a powered summer house, provides multiple outdoor living areas and good privacy.
Buyers should be aware this was constructed in the late 1960s/early 1970s and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated; the house would benefit from energy-efficiency improvements. There are two bathrooms (a shower room and a ground-floor WC) serving six bedrooms, which could be a constraint for larger households and may prompt conversion or extension. Overall, the home offers immediate family comfort with clear potential to modernise and enhance value over time.
Local amenities are strong: very low crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and a cluster of well-regarded primary and secondary schools close by. The freehold tenure, low flood risk and generous plot make this a practical long-term family purchase in an affluent suburban setting.
