A picture postcard cottage in need of updating located in a desirable village location.
Located in the sought-after village of Plaitford, Romsey, The Milestone is a unique detached cottage dating back to the c.17th century. It is set amidst picturesque grounds spanning half an acre, with direct access to the New Forest opposite. This charming cottage boasts a plethora of character features, including exposed beamed ceilings and Inglenook fireplaces, characteristic of its age. Once owned by the Earl of Ilchester, the historic significance adds to its wonderful charm.
The Milestone offers an excellent opportunity for renovation, requiring extensive upgrading throughout. Additionally, within the grounds stands a larger-than-usual garage, potentially suitable for development, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. This lovely old cottage presents endless possibilities for the next owner to restore its charm and character . It is currently not listed.
On the ground floor there are two principal reception rooms. There is in addition to this, an excellent kitchen/breakfast room, a utility room and downstairs bathroom. On the first floor there are three bedrooms and plenty of potential.
Outside, the gardens are predominantly level, laid to lawn with pretty flower beds, borders and a variety of shrubs and fruit trees. There are far reaching views over the adjacent countryside to the rear too.
An opportunity of a lifetime...
