4 bedroom detached house for sale

A beautifully refurbished and presented detached 4-bedroom family home of just under 2,500 sq. ft. in a private position on the outskirts of the town in grounds of 0.22 acre. VENDOR SUITED.

A beautifully presented, spacious detached house that has been the subject of considerable alteration and improvement by the current owners in recent years, who have created a wonderful family home tailored to suit the needs of modern family life, presented in excellent condition throughout. A welcoming principal entrance hall with bespoke staircase opens to an array of well proportioned, light and airy reception rooms - including a study for those seeking work-from-home office space - and the fantastic open plan kitchen/breakfast family room, which is very much the heart of the home. The sense of light and space is echoed on the first floor where there are four generous bedrooms including a luxurious principal bedroom with en suite and a beautifully appointed family bathroom. The quality and standard of the interior has been mirrored by the landscaped garden that includes an impressive porcelain tiled patio and entertaining terrace with gazebo adjacent to the house, and there is ample parking and turning space to the front.

Oakridge is located on the extreme outskirts of Fordingbridge, occupying a private position on an unmade road and close to the popular outlying village of Sandleheath. Sandleheath is one of the few villages in the area to retain a village shop and sub-Post Office and is home to an active community revolving around a village hall, tennis club, church and scout hall. Fordingbridge (approximately 1 mile) has a good range of educational, health and recreational facilities available, including reputable infant, primary and secondary schools; in addition, Forres Sandle Manor private school is quite literally on the doorstep. The surrounding area is well served by the local road network including the A338, which provides day to day access to the commercial and employment centres of Salisbury, Bournemouth and Southampton: all have mainline rail services to London Waterloo and there are international airports at the latter two. The New Forest National Park is but a short distance away, its thousands of acres of heath, wood and moorland providing the ideal setting for walking, riding and cycling.

The property is approached over a long gravel driveway terminating at the front of the house with ample parking and turning space. Pedestrian side access to the rear garden.

The garden to the rear of the house has a full width porcelain tiled patio with a slate tiled retaining wall incorporating decorative lighting and steps up to the lawn which is offset by well stocked flower/shrub borders. To one side of the garden is a gazebo for outdoor entertaining/BBQ space with adjoining terrace all completed using matching porcelain slabs.
