A charming and private family home in the New Forest, with a detached annex and separate double garage, in about 0.8 acre of grounds.
Description
A delightful family house, dating from the 1920’s, with a brick and oak-clad extension sympathetically added in 2003. The flexible accommodation includes a dual-aspect dining room with original pine floorboards and French doors on to the terrace and a gracious drawing room with oak floorboards, an open fire and, again, double doors to the terrace. The kitchen, with a quarry tiled floor, has an oil fired AGA, gas hob, electric oven and a range of oak cupboards with integrated appliances. A study, utility room and shower room complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the dual-aspect principal bedroom has a large bay window framing the expansive views over the Avon Valley and an en suite bathroom. There are four further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, a family bathroom and a separate WC.
The Guest accommodation, formerly a pony and trap stable, has a kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room and opens on to its own private terrace.
An imaginatively designed, oak-clad double garage has a large loft space above, with the potential (dependent on the relevant planning consents) to create a further room. Adjacent to the garage is a guest bedroom, and separate WC, overlooking the garden.
The house sits in a striking elevated position, overlooking the Avon Valley and the downland of the Cranborne Chase beyond. Behind the house is direct access on to Woodgreen Common and the New Forest. A particular feature of the property is an expansive terrace that wraps around three sides of the house overlooking the gardens to the west and south, providing stunning far-reaching views of the countryside beyond. The extensive sweeping lawns are bordered with an abundance of mature trees, including beech, liquid amber, walnut, oak, mulberry and maple, creating a very private and protected space. An additional lower area of lawn, formerly a vegetable garden, has a Holly hedge boundary.

The town of Fordingbridge, under 4 miles from the village, has a range of useful amenities, including a doctors surgery, ‘cottage’ hospital, popular primary school and secondary school, small supermarkets, independent shops, butchers, cafés and pubs, along with both rugby and football clubs.
The beautiful Cathedral city of Salisbury, about 10 miles north, offers a wide selection of shops, restaurants, arts and recreational facilities.
Trains from Salisbury to London Waterloo have a journey time of approximately 90 minutes.
Racing is available at Salisbury Racecourse and Wincanton and golf at Hamptworth and Bramshaw. This area is renowned for its fishing on the River Avon.
The A303 provides access to the south west and London, via the M3.
