A well-presented Victorian semi-detached cottage set on a pleasant country lane in Neacroft, a hamlet on the western edge of the New Forest National Park. The Retreat blends period character — cast-iron fireplaces, oak flooring and an open fire — with practical modern updates including a contemporary kitchen, en suite and utility room. The layout is flexible with two reception rooms, a family room opening onto the garden and useful loft storage.
Three double bedrooms and two bathrooms suit family life; the principal bedroom has a vaulted ceiling and an en suite, while the third bedroom includes a mezzanine level that adds versatile space for sleeping or play. The south-westerly rear garden is private and sheltered, with a brick patio and lawn. Off-street parking for two vehicles and an attached timber lean-to shed add everyday convenience.
Buyers should note some period-era limitations: the property has cavity walls assumed to be uninsulated, and the double glazing was installed before 2002 — further insulation or window upgrades may be desirable for energy performance. Broadband speeds are reported slow, which could affect home working. Overall, this freehold cottage offers strong character, good outdoor space and convenient access to nearby Bransgore and Christchurch amenities.
