Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
CHAIN FREE -- This historic Grade II Listed Georgian former merchant's house in Lymington offers an exceptional blend of period charm and modern living. Situated close to the High Street and Waitrose, this four bedroom property exudes character, making it a standout home in this sought-after location.

Arranged over four floors, the house boasts a variety of distinctive features that capture its rich history. The top floor presents views across the Solent towards the Isle of Wight, a perfect reminder of the house's maritime connections.

A key highlight of this property is the long driveway at the rear, providing ample off-road parking/boat storage—an invaluable feature in such a central location. The driveway leads to a picturesque south-facing cottage garden, offering a private and tranquil space for outdoor enjoyment, whether for relaxation, entertaining, or gardening.

At the basement level, access can be gained through a gate along the side of the property. What was once the servants' quarters has been thoughtfully converted into a beautifully fitted utility room, which leads through to a snug lounge featuring a brick fireplace. This cosy space is currently used as a cinema room, but also offers potential for conversion into a self-contained annexe, perfect for guests or extended family.

Stairs from the basement lead up to the main ground floor accommodation, where stripped wooden floorboards set a warm and welcoming tone. The ground floor features a sitting room at the front, complete with a bay window and a fireplace with wood-burning stove. This room opens into the kitchen/breakfast room, which is well-appointed with a comprehensive range of cabinets, integrated appliances, a large antique dresser and space for a dining table. From here the rear lobby offers additional storage, access to a convenient cloakroom with a WC and a door to the garden.

Ascending to the first floor, you’ll find a beautiful living room, which can also serve as an additional bedroom. This room features a bay window with lovely views over the garden and a cast iron fireplace, adding to the home's period charm. Also on this level is a double bedroom and the family bathroom.

The second floor is dedicated to the main bedroom, which offers views towards the Solent and Isle of Wight, and benefits from an en suite cloakroom. A further double bedroom completes this level.

Throughout the property, you'll find many individual and quirky character features, from period fireplaces to original wooden floors, all contributing to the unique ambiance of this historic home. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Lymington's history, in a location that combines the charm of the past with the conveniences of modern town living.

Lymington offers an extensive range of shops from large household names such as Marks & Spencer and Waitrose to independent boutiques, coffee shops, restaurants, pubs and tea rooms. There are also a variety of hair salons and beauticians to choose from. Saturdays provide a vibrant atmosphere throughout the town as the market attracts many locals and visitors from throughout the forest and beyond. Lymington is the ideal location for those who enjoy water sports with two marinas and sailing clubs holding access to the Solent and a short drive away from beaches.

Being so close to the New Forest it also offers the perfect location for those who enjoy horse riding, walking and cycling. The town offers a nine-hole golf course, rowing club, community centre, library, small cinema, bowls club and tennis club. Lymington Recreation Centre offers an indoor 25m swimming pool and many fitness classes, whilst during the summer months there is an outdoor seawater baths next to the River with a hundred years of heritage. There is also a Cricket Club, Football and Rugby Clubs, Skateboard Park and children's play areas.

From a more practical view Lymington also offers churches of all faiths, infant, junior and secondary schools all within walking distance of the town.
