3 bed terraced house for sale

East Street, Alresford, Hampshire SO24

Positioned in the very heart of Alresford, this charming Grade II listed cottage offers the rare opportunity to enjoy period living just moments from the town’s independent shops, cafés, restaurants and beautiful riverside walks.

Arranged across four floors, the house is full of character, with an adaptable layout, retaining the warmth and individuality expected of a historic home.

A traditional bay window draws natural light into the front sitting room, creating a comfortable and welcoming space to retreat at the end of the day. Beyond is a separate dining room, perfectly placed for both everyday meals and entertaining, which flows into a bright sun room overlooking the garden. With underfloor heating, this later addition can be enjoyed throughout the seasons and provides a natural connection between the house and its south-facing outside space.

The kitchen has been designed to complement the age and style of the cottage while providing practical storage and preparation space, completing the ground-floor accommodation.

Three bedrooms are arranged across the upper floors. The principal bedroom is a particularly generous room, complete with built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom also features fitted storage and its own wash basin, while the top-floor bedroom offers a more private and versatile space, ideal for guests, older children or those looking to work from home. Eaves storage makes excellent use of the upper floor, and a family bathroom serves the bedrooms. There really is ample storage throughout this home.

The converted basement adds another valuable dimension to the house. Currently arranged as a study, along with a separate workshop area, it provides a peaceful and characterful workspace away from the main living accommodation, but could equally suit a hobby room, library or occasional snug.

To the rear, the south-facing garden has been designed as an easy-to-maintain extension of the home. Paved terraces create several places to sit, dine and entertain throughout the day, softened by established planting and mature flower borders.

At the end of the garden is a substantial workshop or studio, re-roofed within the last four years. Whether used for creative pursuits, storage, a home gym or a more informal working space, it provides an increasingly sought-after level of flexibility in such a central Alresford setting.

Alresford is one of Hampshire’s most sought-after market towns, known for its elegant Georgian architecture, colour-washed houses and strong sense of community. The historic centre is home to an excellent collection of independent shops, boutiques, galleries, cafés and restaurants, creating a vibrant yet relaxed atmosphere throughout the week.

The town is particularly well known for its riverside walks, the Watercress Line and the surrounding Hampshire countryside, offering an appealing balance between town and country living. Everyday amenities are close at hand, while Winchester is easily accessible for a wider range of shopping, cultural and leisure facilities.

Families are well served by a selection of highly regarded state and independent schools in Alresford, Winchester and the surrounding villages. These include Perins School, Peter Symonds College, Princes Mead, Pilgrims’ School, St Swithun’s and Winchester College.
