Trinity House, Lankhills Road, Winchester, Hampshire SO23

Trinity House is a remarkable contemporary residence, crafted by the renowned Huf Haus design studio and set along an exclusive lane in Winchester. It offers a rare combination of privacy and, design excellence and close proximity to within one of England's most celebrated cathedral cities. Completed in 2007, the house is a superb example of modern German engineering and craftsmanship. Its signature post-and-beam structure, combined with expansive glazing, creates a dramatic yet calming living environment-where clean lines, natural materials and carefully considered design come together in perfect harmony with the surrounding landscape.

The home is arranged over three floors, with beautifully proportioned, versatile accommodation throughout. Floor-to-ceiling windows invite natural light into every corner, while the open-plan layout enhances both space and flow. Advanced systems such as a ground source heat pump powering underfloor heating, integrated security, and electronically operated external blinds ensure comfort and ease of living all year round.
At its heart lies an exceptional Bulthaup kitchen, elegantly appointed with Italian Carrara marble worktops and a full suite of premium Miele appliances, including multiple ovens, two dishwashers and twin refrigeration units-perfectly suited to both everyday living and entertaining on a larger scale. The ground floor connects seamlessly with the garden, while an additional reception room provides flexibility for use as a study, or snug or formal sitting room.

The lower ground floor offers highly adaptable accommodation, ideal for teenagers, guests or independent living. This level includes a bedroom, shower room, utility space, music room, and a generous reception area currently arranged as a playroom or media space, complete with fitted Bulthaup units.

Upstairs, a striking mezzanine landing opens onto a balcony overlooks the ground floor garden. The principal suite features a dressing room and en suite bathroom, complemented by three further double bedrooms-each with balcony access-and a well-appointed family bathroom.

The approach to Trinity House is both understated and impressive, with a landscaped pathway leading through thoughtfully designed gardens. A paved parking area and covered carport provide ample space for several vehicles.
The gardens themselves are carefully curated to complement the home's architectural style. Mature trees create a natural sense of privacy, while outdoor living is enhanced by a covered terrace adjoining the kitchen-ideal for al fresco dining-and a generous south-facing terrace, perfectly suited to entertaining against a tranquil green backdrop.
