SituationMulberry House is located in the heart of historic

Winchester 160 metres from the shopping centre with

views towards the cathedral and beyond to St Catherine’s

and St Giles Hill. The property is situated ideally for the

pedestrian shopping centre in the High Street, with access

to a wealth of shops, restaurants and recreational facilities

including the Theatre Royal and local cinema. Winchester

College and the water meadows of St Cross, which stretch

along the banks of the River Itchen are nearby. There are

splendid walks through the historic cathedral streets, the

water meadows and on to St Catherine’s Hill. Winchester

is 60 minutes by train from London Waterloo. The M3

motorway (junctions 9, 10 and 11) is within easy reach,

making both London and Southampton readily accessible.

The interconnection with the M27 makes Southampton

International Airport easily commutable and also opens up

the south coast and the New Forest. The A34 to the north

provides access to Oxford, the Midlands and the A303 to the

West Country.

EducationIn addition to Winchester College, St Swithuns independent

prep and secondary girls’ school and Pilgrims Prep School

for boys are all conveniently located within the city. Twyford

Preparatory School is at nearby Twyford and there is

Prince’s Mead at Kings Worthy. There are a number of

well regarded state assisted schools in the area, including

Peter Symonds Sixth Form College in Winchester and King

Edward’s School in Southampton.

Mulberry HouseA Grade II Listed, predominantly Georgian, family house

of 17th Century origin, is one of Winchester’s finest

private residences. It’s located in the heart of the city with

magnificent views of the western facade of the cathedral.

Mulberry House is believed to have been named after

a Mulberry Tree that was planted in the rear garden

by Charles II. Sadly the tree no longer remains. The

property, which has been substantially extended and

meticulously renovated by the current owners, is offered

in first class condition both internally and externally, with

bespoke finishes of a quality associated with prime London

properties. Perhaps the most impressive element of the

house is the magnificent ‘orangery style’ kitchen extension,

which allows greater enjoyment of the garden and cathedral

view. The extensive accommodation is arranged over 3

floors with the additional benefit of a large cellar. There is

a one bedroom, integral, attached cottage, which could be

utilised for staff or accommodation for dependant relatives.

OutsideThe rear gardens to the property have been designed by

garden designers Hilliers of Romsey, gold medal winners

at Chelsea Flower Show. An impressive terrace extends

from the rear of the house, surrounded and interspersed

with beautifully stocked and tended shrub and flower beds.

This leads on to a pergola covered barbecue and Jacuzzi

area, incorporating a fire pit and an American stainless

steel barbecue. The lawn is bordered by sumptuous flower

beds. There is a delightful summerhouse and the gardens

are walled with substantial Grade II Listed brick walls which

add to the privacy, security and charm of the setting. From

the terrace a pathway leads through a large hedgerow to a

substantial parking and turning area with adjacent triple

garage and security gates leading out onto Symonds Street.

The gardens are automatically irrigated and there is a

sophisticated garden lighting scheme.
