4 bedroom detached house for sale

This charming 4-bedroom detached cottage is situated on a peaceful no-through country lane in the heart of Pilley in the New Forest. The home features an open-plan living area, perfect for modern family life, and offers the convenience of off-road parking.

A charming stable door opens into the enclosed porch, featuring attractive tiled flooring, and leads into the bright and spacious sitting room. This inviting space boasts a gas fireplace and solid oak flooring.

The open-plan design extends into the kitchen/dining area, which features ceramic tiled flooring. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with a Shaker-style design, complemented by solid oak countertops. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, refrigerator, and an electric double oven with a hob and extractor hood. Glazed double doors open into the stunning garden room, offering picturesque views of the countryside beyond. Constructed with timber and exposed beams, this room is enhanced by French casement doors leading to the terrace and garden, a solid wooden floor, and a Clear View wood-burning stove with an exposed flue as the focal point. The utility room is well-equipped with a Belfast sink, ample storage cupboards, and space for a washing machine, tumble dryer, and freezer. It also houses the wall-mounted gas-fired Worcester Bosch boiler and provides coat-hanging space. The cloakroom includes a low-level W.C. and a wash hand basin with additional storage. Ascending from the sitting room, the staircase leads to the first floor, where the master bedroom offers ample built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower room, complete with underfloor heating, a wash hand basin, low-level W.C., and a fully tiled shower cubicle. Bedrooms two and three also feature built-in cupboards, while bedroom four enjoys lovely garden views and is currently used as a study with a fitted desk and shelves.

The property is approached via double timber gates to a gravelled area and off street parking. There is a separate pedestrian gate leading to a brick pathway and to the front door. The gardens lay mainly to the rear of the property where there are distinct areas of terracing either side of the conservatory. Down one side of the garden is mature hedging, the other side has an assortment of shrubs. The rear boundary with its attractive weaved willow fencing gives a pleasing outlook over the paddocks and countryside beyond.
