The principal bedroom enjoys en suite facilities and is just a few steps away from a luxurious bathroom. Bedroom two is spacious and enjoys views over the chimney pots of Little Minster Street and beyond.

The living accommodation is at the top of the property, ensuring maximum enjoyment of what is an exceptional view of Winchester Cathedral. It is rare to find such a peaceful retreat with far reaching and unchanged views over hundreds of years.

Sliding doors lead to a bright and airy sitting room and stairs down to a charming shaker style kitchen. 

Robert Tottle, of agent Savills Winchester, said: "Kings Head Yard is an exclusive collection of four homes within the original Bendicks chocolate factory.

"Enjoying one of the finest views over the city and onto the cathedral, the property is a rarity, with a fun and interesting history.”

Little Minster Street is a quaint and peaceful side street within just a few steps of the pedestrianised high street and thriving city centre. The charming surrounding area contains a variety of exquisite period homes entwined with modern and interesting residential properties. The high street and cathedral square contain a diverse collection of local businesses, independent shops, boutiques, cafes, bars, and restaurants. There are several other cultural, historical and leisure facilities such as the Theatre Royal, Everyman Cinema, the Great Hall and world-renowned Cathedral.

The mainline railway station is half a mile away.

Kings Head Yard is ideally located for the city, but also allows attractive walks through historic cathedral streets and out to water meadows, St Catherine's Hill and onto the Itchen Navigation path.
