A recently renovated, spacious three-bedroom apartment occupying the second floor of an attractive early 20th-century mansion set within about 6.5 acres of communal grounds. The current owners have replaced heating, electrical and plumbing systems, and the apartment combines sympathetic modern finishes — a stylish kitchen, quality bathrooms and integrated appliances — with original features such as high ceilings, picture rails and an ornamental fireplace. Extensive loft storage and a shared cellar add practical space for owners.
Outside offers broad appeal: mature communal gardens and woodland, a sweeping driveway and generous communal parking. There is also a plot where a garage could be built (subject to consents), and the flat is within easy reach of Bransgore village, the New Forest National Park and nearby Christchurch coastline.
Buyers should note some legacy construction and services detail: the building is timber framed with assumed lack of insulation, heating for many rooms is currently portable electric, and the EPC indicated below-average energy efficiency. There is a share of freehold tenure with an average maintenance charge (£168 pcm) and communal ownership responsibilities. Overall, this is a characterful, move-in-ready apartment that will particularly suit buyers seeking space, period charm and countryside access, while accepting some energy-improvement work may be desirable.
