Summary

A charming double fronted three bedroom red brick detached house built in 1925 with a one bedroom self contained ground floor annex extension added about twenty two years ago. The property retains much of its original character, with sash framed secondary glazed windows, panelled internal doors and picture rails, and stands on a private garden plot of 0.28 of an acre. The property offers tremendous scope for further extension, and or redevelopment subject to the relevant consents.

Situation 

Conveniently located in a country lane setting at the junction of Whitsbury Road and Fryern Court Road, about a mile from Fordingbridge town centre, which has a co-op supermarket and an array of independent retailers, a cottage Hospital and the Burgate School, a mixed secondary school with sixth form. The Cathedral City of Salisbury, which has mainline rail services to London Waterloo, and the market town of Ringwood are both easily commutable via the nearby A338. The property sits mid way between the New Forest National Park and Cranborne Chase AONB, both offering thousands of acres of heathland and forest walks.

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
