THE SITUATION

The property lies in a delightful corner plot on a quiet track about 1 mile from the centre of, arguably, one of the most beautiful and sought after villages in The New Forest, ideally situated to make full use of all the wonderful facilities the Forest has to offer. Whether it be sailing at nearby Lymington (12 miles) or golf at one of the many courses in the area including Brockenhurst with its mainline railway station (8 miles, Waterloo 90 mins.) The market town of Ringwood is but a short drive away (5 miles). The larger shopping towns of Southampton (20 miles) to the east and Bournemouth (16 miles) to the west, both with their airports are both easily accessible.



THE PROPERTY

A covered porch adorned with ornate tiling leads into a welcoming reception hallway. Here, a cozy sitting room greets you, complete with a bay window and fireplace, perfect for cozy evenings. Adjacent to the sitting room lies the grand drawing room, the centrepiece of the house; boasting tall ceilings, a large bay window, and French doors opening onto the grounds, this room exudes elegance. A central inset log burner with a stone effect surround creates a focal point for formal gatherings.

Across the hallway, a study also boasts a bay window offering breathtaking views of the Croquet lawn and paddocks beyond. There is an oak fitted library with oak storage units below.

Accessible from both the study and hallway, a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room awaits. Featuring handmade shaker-style units from Kitchen Elegance, a central island with an Italian marble countertop, and an AGA with six-ring gas hob and dual electric ovens, this space is both functional and stylish; complimented by Limestone flooring. A breakfast bar extends from the island, while a generous alcove serves as a pantry with built-in Neff and Miele appliances. The extended rear section of the kitchen floods with natural light from large windows and Velux skylights.

Continuing on the ground floor, a utility room provides additional storage and access to the pool area and gardens. A rear entrance under a covered porch offers storage and a boot room, ideal for muddy wellies after long walks. Rounding off this level is a formal dining room, featuring a corner window and carpeting throughout, as well as a downstairs W/C.

Ascending the stairs to the first floor, you will find a collection of bedrooms and bathrooms. The dual aspect principal bedroom, similar in size to the drawing room, boasts a bay window with seating and panoramic views, along with ample storage. A private entrance leads to a luxurious ensuite bathroom which boasts a Villeroy & Boch double sink unit, bath and spacious shower cubicle adorned with marble tiling.

Two spacious double bedrooms at the front of the property offer stunning bay window views, while a rear double bedroom shares a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, whilst an additional family shower room services this level.

Further stairs lead to the top floor, where three additional double bedrooms await, one of which benefits from an ensuite bathroom and wall-to-wall storage.
