Almost an acre, stables and New Forest access — a rare rural family opportunity.
Almost 2,100 sqft Victorian detached house
Brackenwood House is a striking Victorian detached home of almost 2,100 sqft, set in about one acre of mature, mostly lawned grounds. Positioned within walking distance of the New Forest National Park, the house offers a rare rural lifestyle with easy access to trails and equestrian country. The double-fronted facade, high ceilings and several well-proportioned reception rooms deliver generous family living and entertaining space.
On the ground floor you’ll find a welcoming entrance hall, a large sitting room opening to the east-facing garden, kitchen/breakfast room, family room, boot room, utility and stores. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, a master with dressing room (potential fifth bedroom) and an en-suite, plus a family bathroom. Outbuildings include stables and a summer house that add practical value for hobbies or small equestrian use.
Practical strengths include off-street parking, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown), excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working. There is no flooding risk and crime is very low; the area is very affluent and village amenities include a shop, pub and primary school.
Notable considerations: the house is a period property built before 1900 with solid brick walls and assumed lack of cavity insulation, so buyers should expect energy-efficiency improvements may be needed. Council tax is Band G and therefore relatively expensive. The property offers clear potential for updating and modernisation in parts, which may suit buyers seeking to add value or tailor the home to contemporary standards.
