Summary - Mansters, Manchester Road, Sway SO41 6AS
3 bed 3 bath Detached
Extensive secluded plot beside the New Forest, prime for renovation and modernisation.
Three double bedrooms, three bathrooms, over 2,300 sqft living space
Set on circa 0.56 acres at the edge of Sway and within easy reach of the New Forest, this detached three-bedroom house offers over 2,300 sqft of flexible living and substantial outdoor space. The property is chain free and freehold, with garage and off-street parking behind double metal gates. Superfast broadband is available and there are good local schools and rail links to Southampton and London.
The house has a strong traditional character — exposed beams, an inglenook-style fireplace with log burner, a conservatory and several reception rooms. The layout includes a potential ground-floor annexe/office area with separate access, a utility, downstairs WC and three bathrooms overall. Principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and an ensuite, while double-aspect living rooms open to the garden via French doors.
This is a renovation project throughout. The property requires modernisation: cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, the double glazing install date is unknown, and the EPC is currently E (51) with a potential 73. Buyers should budget for works to heating, insulation and general update to bring the house to contemporary standards.
For families or buyers seeking a private, large plot with development potential, the home offers rare scope to reconfigure interior space and fully exploit the garden. The location—quiet, affluent and bordering the New Forest—delivers privacy, outdoor recreation and village amenities within a short drive. Note that council tax is in a high band and the house dates from the early 20th century, so full surveys are recommended to confirm condition and services.
