Set in the heart of Fordingbridge, this Victorian two-bedroom mid-terrace offers immediate access to shops, cafes and the nearby New Forest. The living room centres on a wood burner, while the kitchen/diner has integrated appliances and a lantern window that floods the space with light. Outside, a small enclosed, low-maintenance garden with raised beds and a bike store provides private outdoor space.
The property is arranged over two floors with two double bedrooms, built-in storage and a modern three-piece bathroom. Gas central heating and double glazing (fitted post-2002) improve comfort and running costs. At approximately 530 sq ft, the house is compact but well laid-out for a first-time buyer, small family or buy-to-let investor seeking town-centre convenience.
Buyers should note this is a period property with solid-brick walls and assumed lack of cavity insulation; some updating and potential damp remediation may be required in places. The rooms are modest in size and the plot is small. Council Tax band is low and tenure is freehold, but the surrounding area records higher crime levels than average.
Overall, this mid-terrace cottage presents a characterful, centrally positioned home with clear scope to personalise and add value. It will suit someone wanting a manageable town-base close to amenities and green access, who is comfortable with modest dimensions and periodic maintenance needs.
