Nestled in a tranquil and highly sought-after location on the periphery of The New Forest, this impressive character residence has been under the same family ownership for almost four decades. Approached via a quiet gravel lane, the property is set on a generous plot offering ample off-street parking as well as a large double garage, with a very wide frontage overlooking peaceful woodland.
The home exudes charm and character, with an original front porch and door leading into a spacious entrance hallway. Inside, the versatile and light-filled ground floor accommodation boasts four generous reception rooms, large kitchen/breakfast room, bathroom, and a utility room. A beautiful original staircase leads to the first floor, where you’ll find six spacious bedrooms—one with an en-suite—and two additional bath/shower rooms.
The grounds are predominantly laid to lawn, offering plenty of outdoor space to enjoy or to further develop the large detached garage. Notably, the property also offers excellent scope for improvement and extension, with granted planning for a further double garage and a flatlet within the house remaining in perpetuity, and the potential to detach from the adjoining neighbouring apartment subject to the usual consents.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home, with timeless character and exciting potential to modernise and develop—all in a peaceful, picturesque setting
