Nestled amidst picturesque open countryside, this captivating 4-bedroom detached bungalow occupies approximately 1 acre of land, boasting a charming south-facing garden that offers breath taking views of the surrounding countryside.
Located on the tranquil outskirts of Rockford, on the fringes of the New Forest, this property not only enjoys direct access to the enchanting forest but also holds forest rights.
With planning approval already secured, the property presents an exciting opportunity for expansion with a ground and first-floor extension, enhancing the existing footprint by approximately 30%. The current owners have laid the ground floor footings, ensuring that the planning permission remains valid without an expiration date if an incoming purchaser should wish to extend the property. (Planning Ref- 19/00095).
The front of the property generously accommodates ample parking space for multiple vehicles, along with a detached double garage, while side access leads to the rear garden.
Originally built in 1930, this home exudes character and offers four double bedrooms, two of which boast en-suite facilities. The spacious sitting room is a delightful focal point with its dual aspect, cosy log burner, and direct access to the rear garden. Bathed in natural light, the expansive kitchen/dining room provides plentiful storage cupboards, and its strategic positioning allows seamless access to both the front and rear gardens.
The gardens themselves are a true highlight of this property, adorned with lush lawns and adorned by an array of deciduous and coniferous trees, exquisite shrubs, ground-covering plants, and several distinctive specimens. Encircled by pastoral farmland on all sides, the level garden affords utmost privacy while offering an open and expansive ambiance.
This exceptional residence finds itself in proximity to esteemed educational institutions, with Moyles Court School situated approximately 0.6 miles away, and falling within the catchment area of Poulner Infants & Junior School (1 mile), as well as Ringwood Academy. Additionally, the charming Alice Lisle public house is conveniently located around 0.5 miles away, while the property's enviable surroundings provide easy access to Rockford Common, extensive forest land, scenic bridleways, and captivating walking paths.
The vibrant market town centre of Ringwood, located approximately 2.6 miles away, offers a bustling street market, extensive shopping options, and comprehensive leisure and educational facilities.
