THE SITUATION
The property is centrally located in, arguably, one of the most beautiful and sought after villages in The New Forest, ideally situated to make full use of all the wonderful facilities the Forest has to offer. Whether it be sailing at nearby Lymington (12 miles) or golf at one of the many courses in the area including Brockenhurst with its mainline railway station (8 miles, Waterloo 90 mins.) The market town of Ringwood is but a short drive away (5 miles). The larger shopping towns of Southampton (20 miles) to the east and Bournemouth (16 miles) to the west, both with their airports, are easily accessible.
THE PROPERTY
The property is accessed via a useful porch, opening to a welcoming entrance hallway with a staircase directly ahead, leading to the first floor. To the right is the downstairs shower room, comprising a low-level WC, handwash basin and shower cubicle. To the left of the entrance hall is the bright and airy sitting room which enjoys views of the front garden and a working log burner inset into a brick fireplace, creating a lovely cosy room.
The country style kitchen/dining room comprises a range of base, wall and drawer units, a gas Rangemaster oven with gas hob, space for a dishwasher and washing machine, ceramic sink and work surfaces over. The dining area boasts a vaulted ceiling with Velux windows and wooden beams, allowing for an abundance of natural light. There is also an external door leading to the rear patio and garden.
A staircase rises to the first floor, giving access to the principal bedroom which benefits greatly from a walk-in wardrobe and access to additional loft storage. Bedroom two is a comfortable double room which enjoys a rear aspect and useful storage cupboards. Bedroom three is also a double bedroom, currently utilised as a twin room.
The family bathroom comprises a fitted bath with shower over, hand wash basin and WC.
GROUNDS & GARDENS
The property is approached via a quiet lane, with wooden gates leading to a generous gravel driveway, allowing ample off-road parking for several vehicles. The front garden is made up of a large area of lawn with mature planting and an outdoor seating area. There is a useful garage which is split into two large storage rooms with space for garden equipment, bins and bikes.
A side gate gives access to the rear garden, which is a low maintenance cottage style garden, primarily laid with gravel and interspersed with mature trees, shrubs and mature hedging, forming the border. To one corner, there is a summerhouse with steps leading down to the patio, which abuts the dining room, providing an ideal space for alfresco dining.
