Swan Green, Emery Down, Lyndhurst, Hampshire SO43

A grand Georgian apartment with private roof terrace and breath-taking New Forest views. No Forward Chain.

Description
A rare opportunity to acquire an impressive three-bedroom apartment forming part of a beautifully converted country house, set in the heart of the New Forest. This exceptional home enjoys its own private roof terrace and sunroom, offering elevated, far-reaching southerly views across the surrounding countryside and, on clear days, as far as the Isle of Wight and the Needles. The property is offered with no forward chain.

Northerwood House is a striking Georgian mansion, approached via a long private driveway and occupying an elevated, secluded position within approximately seven acres of parkland-style grounds. Attributed to the architect Naish, the building boasts a rich history and an enviable setting on the edge of the village of Lyndhurst. The apartment forms part of the original house and combines elegant period features with modern fittings, including high ceilings, generous proportions, and abundant natural light throughout.

Stairs rise from the ground floor to a private entrance leading into a spacious and welcoming central hall, providing access to all living and bedroom accommodation and offering potential for use as a dining hall. The impressive drawing and dining room features large south-facing windows that frame the elevated views across the gardens and beyond. Additional highlights include a feature gas living flame fireplace with illuminated built-in bookcases and storage.

Adjoining the reception room is a well-appointed kitchen fitted with contemporary shaker-style units, integrated appliances, and complementary granite work surfaces, again benefiting from open southerly views.

The principal bedroom suite is particularly luxurious, featuring large picture windows overlooking the grounds, extensive fitted wardrobes, and a high-quality en-suite bathroom with double vanity, walk-in shower, WC, and bidet. A further guest bedroom benefits from its own en-suite facilities, while the third bedroom-currently used as a study-offers built-in shelving, storage, and garden views. A separate family shower room completes the accommodation.

From the communal hallway, additional stairs lead to the top floor, where a sunroom provides a further reception space with doors opening onto a private roof terrace. This secluded outdoor area is ideal for entertaining and dining while enjoying the outstanding panoramic views.

The property is set within beautifully maintained private grounds and further benefits from a double garage.

Location
Northerwood House occupies an enviable position on Swan Green, one of Lyndhurst’s most desirable and picturesque locations, set within the heart of the New Forest National Park. The property enjoys a peaceful, semi-rural setting while remaining within easy walking distance of Lyndhurst village centre, which offers a wide range of independent shops, cafés, traditional pubs, tearooms, and everyday amenities.

The open forest lies just moments away, providing direct access to miles of scenic walking, cycling, and riding routes, with the iconic New Forest ponies, cattle, and deer forming part of the landscape. Swan Green itself is a particularly sought-after area, known for its attractive outlook, historic surroundings, and proximity to the village’s notable landmarks, including St Michael & All Angels Church.

Brockenhurst, a nearby village, offers a mainline railway station with direct services to London Waterloo, making the area popular with commuters and second-home buyers alike. The wider road network provides convenient access to the south coast, Southampton, and London via the M27 and M3, while the surrounding New Forest villages and coastline offer an exceptional lifestyle balance of countryside and coast.
