Description

Nestled in one of the most sought-after locations within the New Forest National Park, this exceptional property presents a rare opportunity to renovate or redevelop, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

This substantial residence features six bedrooms and five reception rooms, set within approximately 6.1 acres of grounds including three paddocks, a walled garden with outbuildings, and direct views across the open forest.

The property is centrally located in, arguably, one of the most beautiful and sought after villages in The New Forest, ideally situated to make full use of all the wonderful facilities the Forest has to offer. Whether it be sailing at nearby Lymington (12 miles) or golf at one of the many courses in the area including Brockenhurst with its mainline railway station (8 miles, Waterloo 90 mins.) The market town of Ringwood is but a short drive away (5 miles). The larger shopping towns of Southampton (20 miles) to the east and Bournemouth (16 miles) to the west, both with their airports, are easily accessible.

An imposing and characterful six bedroom country residence occupying a truly exceptional position within the heart of the New Forest National Park, enjoying uninterrupted views across the open forest and set within beautifully established walled gardens and grounds extending to approximately 6.1 acres, including three adjoining paddocks.

Believed to date from the turn of the last century, the property offers an extraordinary opportunity to acquire one of the area’s most distinguished homes.

The extensive accommodation extends across two floors and is served by two separate staircases, reflecting the grandeur and practicality of a bygone era.

Arranged around five elegant reception rooms, the house also retains a wealth of original service areas including back-to-back kitchens, utility rooms and a cellar, once dedicated to domestic staff.

While the property would benefit from comprehensive modernisation, this equally presents a rare opportunity to sensitively restore and reimagine a home of immense charm and provenance, creating a magnificent family residence perfectly suited to contemporary living.

The property is approached through beautifully established grounds extending in total to approximately 6.1 acres, offering an exceptional sense of space, privacy and connection to the surrounding landscape. At the heart of the grounds lies a charming walled garden, rich in character and providing a wonderfully secluded setting with enormous potential for formal planting, kitchen gardens or landscaped entertaining areas. Beyond, three adjoining paddocks gently extend the grounds, creating an idyllic environment ideally suited to equestrian pursuits, grazing or simply enjoying the tranquillity and natural beauty of this remarkable New Forest setting.
