Local amenities at New Milton are within one mile with schools for all age groups including the renowned Ballard School nearby. The Georgian coastal town of Lymington is within eight miles where you will find a range of boutique shops, many fine restaurants, excellent sailing facilities, and a thirty minute car ferry crossing to Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight.

The property is well placed for access to other major towns and cities including Bournemouth (13 miles), Southampton (19 miles) and Winchester (31 miles), with a link to London Waterloo via New Milton (2 hours) or Brockenhurst (1 hour 40 minutes).

THE PROPERTY

Upon entering the property, there is a spacious entrance hall, adorned with traditional yet stylish tiled flooring; in turn giving access to the sitting room, dining room, and a gracefully designed staircase with stained glass, leads to the upper floor.

Both the sitting room and dining room showcase magnificent large stone feature fireplaces with Jetmaster fires, expansive bay windows, flooding the space with natural light and providing seamless access to the rear garden.

Continuing through the hall, there is a recently updated bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower, low-level WC, and hand wash basin.

The impressive kitchen/breakfast room, also recently renovated, boasts charming flagstone flooring, ample shaker units offering plentiful storage, an electric Aga, and integrated Neff and AEG appliances, including an induction hob and conventional oven. Additionally, pew seating and a designated dining area make this space ideal for family gatherings and entertaining.

Adjacent to the kitchen, an additional reception room offers versatile functionality as a study, playroom, or snug. Connected to this space is an orangery, providing access to both the front and rear gardens, along with a utility room equipped with storage space and plumbing for white goods, and an adjoining workshop or storage area.

Ascending to the first floor, four generously proportioned bedrooms await, each offering picturesque views of the surrounding grounds, gardens, and fields beyond. Three of the bedrooms boast double aspect views. Completing this level, a family bathroom features a shower cubicle, fitted bath, low-level WC, and sink, supplemented by an additional cloakroom.

GROUNDS & GARDENS

Outside, the property is accessed through electric timber gates, leading to a sweeping driveway providing ample off-road parking. Mature trees and hedge rows enclose the property, offering privacy and a tranquil atmosphere.

Versatile outbuildings, including two stables, a store, and a garage, flank one side of the property.

The grounds comprise two front lawns, two recently re-fenced paddocks both with timber gates and one also benefiting from a field shelter. The substantial rear garden features a fish pond and new terraced area, bordered by mature plants—providing the perfect setting for al-fresco dining and relaxation.
