5 bed country house for sale

Whinwhistle Road, East Wellow, Romsey, Hampshire SO51

Set within over 2.5 acres of private gardens and native woodland on the edge of the New Forest, Stronwen is an exceptional single-storey home offering more than 2,800 sq ft of lateral, highly adaptable living space.

Designed with both flexibility and flow in mind, the layout is entirely step-free and wheelchair accessible. A dramatic double-height central living space forms the heart of the house - flooded with natural light from floor-to-ceiling glazing and clerestory windows and, effortlessly connecting cooking, dining and relaxation areas beneath timber-framed pitched ceilings. Four generous double bedrooms line the northern wing, complemented by two wet rooms, while a separate office or gym provides easy potential for a fifth bedroom.

Straw bale and timber construction, lime render and clay plaster define the material palette, delivering outstanding insulation and a naturally healthy indoor climate without mechanical intervention. Solar thermal hot water and low energy demands underpin its impressive eco credentials.

Architecturally striking yet discreetly positioned, this is a house that combines scale, versatility and sustainability in a remarkable woodland setting.

Anti Money Laundering

Estate Agents are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (aml) checks on all parties involved in the sale or purchase of a property. W&W use a specialist service called "Guild 365" to perform these checks. This is a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: W&W receive a portion of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.
