The nearby picturesque village of Burley boasts a range of boutique shops and restaurants. The sailing centres of Lymington and Christchurch are both nearby with Lymington also offering a ferry service to the Isle of Wight. Good nearby road links provide easy access to the larger shopping towns of Southampton and Bournemouth, both with their airports. London is easily reached by rail and New Milton and Hinton Admiral station with their frequent train service are just a few minutes drive from the property.
There are a number of excellent schools in the area, which include Ballard School and Durlston Court Preparatory in New Milton, Walhampton School in Lymington and King Edward VI Southampton. Local to the property is the ever-popular Chewton Glen Hotel and Spa, the Highcliffe Golf Course, the Nature Reserve at Steamer Point and is situated a short walk via Chewton Bunny to the beautiful beaches.
Entering through a glass paned, grey front door into the welcoming entrance hall. To the left is a bespoke, fitted kitchen designed by vsp Interiors, which creates a beautiful and practical space, ideal for modern day living. The marble topped kitchen is comprehensively designed and benefits from well-appointed cupboard space, a custom-made drinks cabinet and built-in kitchen appliances, including fridge/freezer, microwave, a modern touch screen Neff kitchen double ovens and warming draw, induction hob, dishwasher and wine cooler. Space to the rear of the room houses both a breakfast bar and large dining area, where views over the garden are enjoyed through the double doors onto the outside terrace.
To the right of the hallway sits a cosy, single aspect snug area, with an additional door through to a light triple aspect utility area with both washing machine and tumble drier. The hallway benefits from downstairs WC and leads down to a well-proportioned sitting room, featuring a beautiful bay window and contemporary inset wood burner with stone surround. The sitting room opens onto a modern orangery that offers a versatile space with maximum light, yet feels solid, warm and cosy even throughout the colder winter months.
Stairs ascend to the first floor where a spacious dual aspect master suite benefits from fitted built in wardrobes and a stunning marble tiled en-suite comprising fitted bath, walk-in shower, floating vanity unit and WC. The first floor is completed by two further bedrooms, both with built in wardrobes and serviced by the family bathroom with panelled bath, shower, WC, sink and further storage cupboards.
On the second floor there is a further bedroom which can equally be suited for a home office with plenty of storage and a separate WC.
A five-bar gate leads into a gravel driveway which offers ample, off-road parking for several vehicles and hosts a large detached double garage with electric car charging point, which can be accessed by in and out gates to the driveway. To the side of the property, through an arched picket gate, access can be gained to the rear garden with a convenient gravelled area and beautifully landscaped plant bed.
At the rear of the property is a partly covered, paved terrace area which can be accessed from the kitchen, orangery and hallway, and provides the perfect place for alfresco dining and entertaining. The rear garden is predominantly laid to level lawn, with the benefit of established tree and hedgerow boarders, providing a good degree of privacy and seclusion.
