2 bedroom detached house for sale

Tucked away along a quiet private lane in a highly sought-after New Forest location, this enchanting Grade II Listed cob cottage offers seclusion, character and far-reaching countryside views. Rich in period charm, the property retains exposed beams, lever-latch doors and a striking inglenook fireplace, complemented by thoughtful updates including a complete re-thatch in 2019 and rewiring with window refurbishment in 2018. The accommodation comprises a welcoming slate-tiled porch, a dual-aspect sitting room centred around the impressive inglenook fireplace, and a charming kitchen/dining room featuring exposed brickwork, oak cabinetry, granite worktops and an LPG range cooker, together with a useful utility room. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms with semi-vaulted ceilings and rural outlooks, served by a fully tiled family bathroom. Outside, the cottage sits within attractively arranged grounds approached via a private lane with ample parking. The gardens offer a mix of lawn, terrace and seating areas ideal for outdoor enjoyment, along with several outbuildings including a substantial L-shaped timber building with power and water, a separate studio/home office and a workshop. A covered barbecue area and greenhouse complete the setting, with previous planning permission having been granted for a shepherd’s hut, offering further potential subject to the necessary consents.
