Summary - 20 ST SWITHUN STREET WINCHESTER SO23 9JP
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Characterful two-bed cottage with south-facing courtyard, moments from Winchester High Street.
Victorian mid-terrace cottage opposite Cathedral outer wall
This Victorian mid-terrace cottage combines period charm with a recently updated kitchen and bathroom, arranged over two storeys. The bright sitting room features a fireplace and front aspect window, while the kitchen/dining room offers contemporary fittings and space for a table. Outside, a low-maintenance south-facing courtyard provides a sunny spot for relaxation.
Located literally opposite the Cathedral’s ancient outer wall, the house is a short, level walk to the High Street, local schools and the Water Meadows. The location is exceptionally central for shops, cafes and cultural attractions, yet the small gravel garden is pleasantly private.
Practical considerations: the property is solid brick with assumed no wall insulation, heated by electric storage heaters and fitted with secondary glazing. The EPC is rated E and council tax is Band D. On-street residents’ parking is available. The area records very high crime levels — buyers should consider this when assessing security needs.
Ideal for downsizers or professionals seeking a compact, characterful home in Winchester’s centre, the cottage offers comfortable move-in condition with scope for energy-efficiency improvements and minor updating to reduce running costs.
