Set within the Grade II listed Elcombes on Lyndhurst High Street, this split-level two-bedroom apartment combines period charm with rare practical benefits: a private garden, garage and parking, plus a share of the freehold. High ceilings, large sash windows and a generous 1,076 sq ft layout create light, spacious living ideal for buyers seeking comfortable, low-movement town living in the New Forest.
The home sits on the first floor with additional storage on that level and a useful cellar. A kitchen/diner with breakfast bar overlooks the rear garden, while a fabulous sitting room offers elevated views across historic buildings such as The Queen’s House and the Verderers’ office. The property is offered chain free, so a quicker move is possible.
Important practical points are clear: the building’s listed status will restrict external and certain internal alterations and could complicate consent for works. The construction is original solid brick (pre-1900) and likely lacks modern wall insulation, so buyers should factor potential energy upgrade and maintenance costs into plans. The apartment has one bathroom only.
Positioned in central Lyndhurst within New Forest National Park, the location delivers local amenities, nearby schools and excellent mobile signal, balanced against an ageing local population profile. This is a strong option for downsizers or buyers who value period character, convenience and parking, and who are comfortable working within the constraints of a listed building.
