A beautiful three bedroom forest cottage set in a prime central position, within easy reach of the open forest and amenities of Lyndhurst.
The cottage offers well appointed accommodation throughout having recently benefitted from a programme of refurbishment and benefits from a pretty enclosed garden and off road parking.
The property is located in the highly sought after village of Lyndhurst and is accessed via a short pedestrian path leading from the road. Lyndhurst, situated in the heart of the New Forest National Park, provides an excellent range of amenities and facilities including a range of boutique shops and everyday stores, public houses, restaurants, hotels and a well-regarded primary school.
Southampton, by road, is about 8 1/2 miles distant and there are mainline rail services available at Brockenhurst and Ashurst, both approximately 4 miles away, with Brockenhurst also offering an excellent sixth form college. The M27 at Cadnam is within approximately 4 miles, giving access to Portsmouth and Bournemouth via the M27 and Winchester and London via the M3.
Believed to date back to circa 1803, this delightful forest cottage has been recently refurbished by the current owners whilst retaining all the charm of the period with character features such as exposed ceiling beams and wood flooring.
The cottage is tucked away off the high street with private pedestrian access leading to the front entrance.
The entrance leads into a beautifully appointed character kitchen which has been recently fitted with a range of modern units set alongside complimenting quartz worksurfaces.
An extended area to the side of the kitchen gives you access to a separate utility room with door to the rear garden.
At the rear of the property is a pretty living room/dining area with French doors leading onto the lovely garden.
The living room accommodation stretches over 20ft giving a very bright and airy feel with the benefit of a gas burner stove and exposed brick surround.
An enclosed staircase from the dining area leads to the first floor landing area which links the principal bedroom, with in-built wardrobes, a guest double bedroom and refitted well appointed single bedroom or study room. A three-piece family shower room with wood panel surround and tiled flooring complete the first-floor accommodation.
To the front of the property, a gate opens onto a small front garden area with a selection of cottage style planting, mostly enclosed by white picket fencing that leads you to the entrance of the property.
At the rear of the property is a beautifully designed terraced garden which is encircled most by fencing and a small area of brick wall. Planters stretch along the length of the garden on one side with further area on the other for more plants that give the garden a peaceful and tranquil area for outside entertaining and dining. A rear gate links the property to off street parking. A hot tub is available by separate negotiation.
