House For Sale £800,000
A four-bedroom detached family residence set in a private cul-de-sac location, close to the centre of Brockenhurst village and the open forest. The property has been modernised and refurbished throughout and further benefits from a garage, driveway and a good size south facing garden. Energy Performance Rating: D
Situation
The property is set in a tranquil location within a short walk of the open forest on the edge of the sought-after village of Brockenhurst. The village is approximately a ten-minute walk away and offers a mainline railway station with direct links to London Waterloo (approx. 90 minutes), a well-regarded primary school and tertiary college and a good local community of shops and restaurants. The picturesque village of Beaulieu lies 7 miles to the east with the marina of Bucklers Hard on the Beaulieu River. Approximately 4 miles to the south is the Georgian market town of Lymington with its extensive yachting facilities, its famous Saturday county market and ferry service to Yarmouth, Isle of Wight. To the north is the village of Lyndhurst and Junction 1 of the M27 motorway which links to the M3 giving access to London.
Local area
Brockenhurst is the largest village in the New Forest, boasting a thriving and lively community with all the necessary essentials of a proper working village, including a butcher, bakery, greengrocer, cafes and tea houses, plus services such as a doctor, dentist and post office.
In addition, the village boasts an 18-hole championship golf course, a luxurious spa and several highly regarded hotels including the Balmer Lawn, the Pig and Careys Manor, all of which offer fine dining restaurants.
In Brockenhurst the New Forest is all around you and wild ponies, deer and cows roam at will. The North and South Weirs streams join and as one flow through Brockenhurst. In Brookley Road in the warmer months of the year the stream flows across the road, commonly referred to as The Splash. There is a second ford in the Waters Green area of the village, and this flows continuously throughout the year.
It is Brockenhurst’s mainline station (service into London Waterloo approximately 90 minutes) that turns the dream of a country idyll into reality for those working in London and makes Brockenhurst a property hot spot.
The property
The property forms part of a popular development of modern, family homes and offers accommodation extending to approximately 1,490 square feet, set across two floors.
A covered entrance porch with black limestone tiling, newly fitted composite door and side aspect window opens into a welcoming reception hall, providing access to the various rooms as well as the garage and a turning stairwell ascending to the first floor.
The sitting room offers a comfortable space with a feature wood burning stove set into a chimney recess, parquet floor and a picture window overlooking the front aspect.
The kitchen extends across the back of the house, overlooking the garden and features a range of fitted solid Oak units, with inset Butler sink, granite worksurface, natural Limestone flooring and Aga cooker with stainless steel extractor unit over. To the side of the units is space and plumbing for a washer/dryer.
Open to one side of the kitchen is a good size utility room with a door opening out to the garden. To the other side, there is a snug/TV room area with parquet flooring which links seamlessly to the newly fitted, fully glazed Anglian conservatory with a heat sensitive pitched glass roof, solid Bamboo flooring and double doors opening out onto the rear terrace and garden.
The ground floor layout is completed by a modern shower room, comprising a full width walk-in shower with glass screen, rainwater head and separate hand-held attachment, wash basin, WC and natural Limestone flooring.
To the first floor, there are four double bedrooms, with the main bedroom featuring built-in mirrored wardrobes and a large window overlooking the front aspect. The remaining three bedrooms enjoy elevated views to either the front or rear aspect, with two of them further benefitting from built-in wardrobes.
As well as the shower room downstairs, the bedrooms are served by a beautifully fitted family bathroom comprising a freestanding claw bath with mixer taps and shower attachments, wash basin, WC, heated towel rail and wood effect tiled flooring.
