House For Sale £2,000,000
Summary
A substantial six bedroom detached residence of considerable character facing the open forest in one of the finest locations within the New Forest National Park, standing in established walled gardens and grounds, including three adjoining paddocks, in all totalling 6.1 acres. We understand that the property was originally constructed at the turn of the last century, and has been under the ownership of the same family for more than eighty years. The extremely spacious accommodation, which is arranged over two floors is served by two staircases and includes five reception rooms - as well as back to back kitchens, various utility areas and a cellar that would have been the domain of domestic staff in bygone times. The property would now benefit from extensive renovations, and does therefore represent an unrepeatable opportunity to reconfigure and refurbish to create a fabulous home suited to modern day living.
