situationWangfield House, believed to date from 1908, is situated in the village of Martyr Worthy in the highly sought after Itchen Valley, close to the cathedral city of Winchester.

E The surrounding area has a superb range of extremely well known and highly regarded schools including St Swithuns School for girls, Winchester College, Perins Community School, Henry Beaufort Secondary School and Peter Symonds sixth form college, as well as nearby Princes Mead, Twyford and Pilgrims prep schools and Itchen Abbas Primary School.

S The Georgian market town of Alresford is about 4 miles away and provides a lovely range of local shops and amenities. Winchester, about 5 miles away, provides a more comprehensive range of shops and an impressive collection of restaurants as well as a theatre and cinema.

F Recreational facilities in the area are first class and include fishing in the chalk streams of the Rivers Itchen and Test, excellent walking in the surrounding countryside including the Itchen Way, and superb sailing and water sports on the Solent and south coast. There are golf courses at Alresford and Winchester.

M Communications are excellent, with junction 9 of the M3 close by and a mainline railway station with services to London Waterloo from Winchester.

Wangfield houseWangfield House is a spacious and light family house

which has been in the same ownership for nearly 30 years.

During their tenure, the present owners have remodelled

and updated the property to create a welcoming home set

in glorious gardens. The majority of the reception rooms

and bedrooms face south enjoying views over the beautiful

gardens and the Itchen Valley.

The rooms flow from the entrance hall and lend themselves

equally to both large scale entertaining and informal family

life. The drawing room, with its excellent proportions, has

an attractive fireplace and and door to the dining room from

which there is a garden door on to the terrace. There is

a cosy sitting room with walls of fitted bookshelves and a

gas fire. The kitchen/breakfast room, which has plenty of

fitted cupboards, includes an island unit and an Aga. The

remainder of the ground floor is made up of a utility room,

study and downstairs cloakroom.

On the first floor the master bedroom is south facing,

includes a wall of fitted wardrobes and has steps to the

adjoining bathroom. To the other end of the house is a

guest bedroom, also south facing, and with an adjoining

shower room. There are three more bedrooms and a family

bathroom.

outsideA gravel drive leads to a spacious parking area to

the front of the house and the garaging, as well

as a second gravel parking area. The house is

hidden from the road behind mature trees. There

is also a small lawn and fruit trees.

To the back of the house there is a large terrace,

ideal for outdoor entertaining, which enjoys an

enviable vista over the lawns, which stretch

south, towards the Itchen Valley.

There is a productive vegetable garden with a fruit

cage, a pergola with climbing roses as well as a

variety of trees, shrubs and herbaceous borders.
