This traditional detached cottage sits in approximately 1.5 acres of formal gardens and paddocks, offering immediate equestrian use and space for family life. Arranged over multiple levels, the house provides four bedrooms, two bathrooms, generous reception rooms and a large farmhouse-style kitchen — well suited to everyday living and entertaining. The property includes a stable block, barn/tack room and an oak‑framed triple garage with a mezzanine, offering clear scope for conversion or additional storage.
Positioned within the boundaries of the Beaulieu Estate and close to open forest and Hatchet Pond, the location will particularly appeal to buyers seeking countryside living and riding access in the New Forest National Park. The long gravel driveway and large gravel forecourt provide extensive off‑street parking, while mature gardens and fenced paddocks are ready for horses or small‑scale hobby farming. There is an option to rent three additional acres nearby by separate negotiation.
Buyers should note practical considerations: heating is oil‑fired with a boiler and radiators, drainage is private, and the property currently holds an EPC rating of E51 (potential C76). Broadband is described as slow locally, though mobile signal is excellent. Council tax is band F and described as expensive. These factors are important for running costs and should be allowed for when assessing suitability.
Overall this is a rare combination of a character family home with immediate equestrian facilities in a highly desirable National Park setting. It suits a buyer seeking established paddocks and outbuildings with potential to improve energy performance and develop the garage/loft space subject to consents.
