Wayside Road, St. Leonards, Ringwood, Dorset, BH24

A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional home of approximately 5,500 sq ft, in a semi-rural location on a plot of almost exactly 1 acre, perfectly suited to multi-generational living or income potential. The property comprises a main house, self-contained annexe and additional flat. It has been owned by the same family since 1991 before being rebuilt circa 2010. Offering eight bedrooms, five bathrooms, an indoor heated swimming pool and owned solar panels, it presents a unique blend of space, versatility and long-term efficiency. No onward chain.

The location is most coveted being right on the edge of the New Forest National Park boundary - a most convenient spot to head into the New Forest and explore approx. 140,000 acres of National Park. Properties like No.68 offer a lifestyle that very few of us are fortunate to experience...
