2 Dukeshead Cottage is a truly delightful spacious period cottage in this row of four properties dating back we believe to around 1830. Originally a coastguard cottage and later The Dukeshead pub, it still has its traditional flagstone flooring. A spacious cosy sitting room has an inglenook fireplace with raised wood burning stove and there is a delightful dining room and farmhouse kitchen. There are four bedrooms on the first floor, two with far-reaching views across Lymington Saltmarshes, the Solent, Isle of Wight and Yarmouth.
To the front of the property is parking for two cars, whilst a large very secluded area of garden lies to the rear, being extremely well established backing onto open fields and incorporating a useful Summer House/Office with Clearview wood burning stove and full broadband connection. Situated in this unique and enchanting location at the end of a quiet no through country lane with direct access to glorious walks along the Sea Wall continuing to Keyhaven to the west and Lymington to the east. A unique property in a stunning location which really must be viewed in order to be fully appreciated.
