4 bedroom detached house

A superb opportunity to acquire a four bedroom detached property, which has recently been beautifully modernised to create a delightful semi-rural home in the heart of the New Forest. Within an easy walking distance to the open Forest, and a short drive to Lymington town centre.

Occupying a rural position in the quiet hamlet of Portmore (located between Pilley & Lymington), the property is a five minute drive or a 25 minute walk from Lymington and within walking distance of the open forest. Portmore is a small village but has a vibrant community, the Pilley community shop is only a short walk via footpaths. The unspoilt New Forest National Park lies just half a mile to the north and offers endless walks, rides and cycling. Lymington is renowned as a centre for sailing with several clubs and deep water marinas all offering access to the Solent and beyond. Brockenhurst is 3 miles away and offers direct main line rail services to London Waterloo.

A covered porch opens in to the reception hall with wood block flooring, under stairs storage cupboard, airing cupboard and door through to the south facing lounge with bay window and a feature fireplace with log burner. The new kitchen lies at the back of the house over looking the garden with a range if fitted wall and floor cupboards, new oak work tops and drawers with an  integrated dishwasher, four ring induction hob with extractor over, double oven, space for fridge freezer and herringbone wood flooring. The kitchen extends through to the dining area with bye-fold doors opening on to the garden. There is a very useful utility room with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer and a wall mounted gas boiler.

There are three double bedrooms on the ground floor and the newly fitted family bathroom with a freestanding bath, vanity basin with cupboards below, wc, fully tiled shower cubicle with mains shower, part tiled walls, tiled floor and heated towel rail.
