Spacious five-bedroom country home with paddocks and forest access.
Approximately 2.4 acres of garden and paddock land
Set in approximately 2.4 acres of garden and paddock, this detached five-bedroom cottage offers an exceptional equestrian opportunity within two minutes’ walk of the open New Forest. The long, gated driveway, large hardstanding and double garage give generous parking and storage, while mature trees and an orchard provide privacy and attractive rural views. Spacious reception rooms include a sitting room with a wood-burning stove and formal dining room with open fireplace.
Finished in traditional painted brick/render with a slate roof, the house retains period character and versatile room layouts across two storeys plus loft space. The ground floor includes a kitchen/breakfast room, family room, utility, shower room and cloakroom; upstairs are five double bedrooms and a fully tiled family bathroom. Broadband is excellent (ultrafast up to 900 Mbps), and the recently serviced boiler provides heating from mains gas/Worcester oil-fired system.
The plot is the key asset: paddocks and grounds are well suited to horses or other smallholdings, with direct access to forest riding and countryside recreation. Nearby schools include highly regarded state and independent options, and the location lies within the New Forest National Park.
Practical considerations: the property requires modernization in places and should be treated as a fixer-upper. Walls are cavity-built with assumed no insulation, heating runs on oil (recently serviced) and drainage is private. EPC currently E54 (potential C72). Council Tax Band G and some refurbishment costs should be factored into budgeting.
