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.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
