A stunning three bedroom penthouse apartment forming part of a beautifully renovated Grade II Listed building set in the heart of the village of Sway.
The property is situated in a conveniently central location in the heart of the village, being just a few minutes walk from the mainline railway station (London Waterloo approx. 90 minutes), general convenience stores, doctors surgery, public house and the highly regarded St Lukes Primary School.
The open forest can be accessed towards the end of the road at Setthorns. The Georgian market town of Lymington, famed for its river, marinas, yacht clubs, boutique shops and coastline, is within an easy 4 mile drive over the forest. The neighbouring New Forest village of Brockenhurst, again with a mainline rail connection, offers further leisure, shopping and educational amenities, as well as a popular 18 hole championship golf course.

The main building is accessed from the ground floor via a welcoming communal entrance porch and hallway featuring attractive Victorian tiled flooring. From the communal hallway, a wooden stairwell ascends to the first floor landing, where a further flight of stairs leads directly to the second floor landing and the penthouse apartment.
A solid wood front door opens into the entrance hall for the apartment which features Oak parquet flooring and a wall mounted security entry phone. A double door walk-in cupboard houses the gas heating and hot water boiler with an adjacent space with plumbing for washing machine.
The impressive sitting room features windows to the front and double French style doors opening onto a private balcony with ornate wooden balustrade offering elevated views across the village, the New Forest and paddocks beyond.
Adjoining the sitting room is the kitchen/breakfast room which has been fitted with an attractive range of handmade and hand-painted Shaker style wall and base units fitted to three walls. Appliances include a built-in dishwasher and fridge, as well as a free-standing electric oven with gas hob and fitted matching stainless steel extractor fan.
