Summary - GOLDEN HAYES COTTAGE, BARTLEY ROAD, SOUTHAMPTON, WOODLANDS SO40 7GN
6 bed 3 bath Detached
Extended Victorian cottage with huge plot and countryside views, ideal for family living.
Six double bedrooms, three bathrooms across two floors
Set on a substantial plot on the edge of the New Forest, this extended six-bedroom detached cottage combines period character with recent renovation and flexible living space. The house was fully renovated and extended in 2010 and presents generous reception rooms, a bespoke kitchen, and multiple bedrooms arranged over two floors — ideal for an active family that values space and countryside views.
The mature garden of about 0.4 acres and the adjoining 2.7 acres of fields are standout features, offering privacy, outdoor living and potential for hobby farming or equestrian use. Practical benefits include ample gravelled off-street parking, a new boiler with Hive control, underfloor heating to parts of the ground floor, double glazing and a water softener integrated in the kitchen units.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property sits within a Tree Preservation Order and the large grounds will require ongoing maintenance. Broadband is ADSL/copper-based with superfast availability up to 35 Mbps only; mobile signal is average. The house is freehold, constructed circa 1900–1929 with assumed cavity walls and no known loft wall insulation — further insulation or energy upgrades could be considered to improve efficiency. Council tax is Band F (described as expensive).
This home will suit buyers seeking rural character close to Lyndhurst, families wanting nearby primary schools and outdoor amenities, or purchasers looking for a substantial lifestyle plot with immediate accommodation and scope to tailor aspects of the house further.
