4 bed detached house for sale

Blackhill Road, East Wellow, Romsey, Hampshire SO51

Jasmine Cottage is a charming character home enjoying a privileged and secluded position, fronting directly onto the open New Forest, and set within beautifully maintained gardens approaching one third of an acre.

Situated in this highly regarded New Forest location, the property was originally of mock-Tudor construction and has since been lovingly renovated, re-rendered and re-roofed, creating a beautifully presented and well-proportioned family home that retains much of its intrinsic charm. With many rooms enjoying a dual aspect, the accommodation is filled with natural light and benefits from attractive countryside views from most windows.

The ground floor offers two well-proportioned reception rooms, a downstairs WC, and a revamped kitchen breakfast room with bi-folding doors opening onto a private sun terrace and the delightful rear gardens. The property has also been extended to create a useful utility room, enhancing everyday practicality. The first floor provides four generous bedrooms, including a principal bedroom and guest bedroom both benefiting from ensuite facilities, in addition to a modern family bathroom.

Externally, the gardens are a particular highlight, offering a high degree of privacy and backing onto paddock land on three sides, while the front of the property enjoys direct access and views across the open forest.

To the rear of the property is a double garage, currently utilised as a gym, which also features solar panels and an EV charging point. There is also generous parking accessed via electric gates, and replaced outbuildings, including an impressive three-room garden cabin, ideal for home working, hobbies or guest use. Further benefits include double glazing throughout, oil-fired central heating, and private drainage.

Despite its idyllic rural setting with stunning views from all aspects, Jasmine Cottage remains well connected for commuting and is conveniently positioned for highly regarded local schooling, both state and private, catering for all ages.
