The Situation
Alderholt is a charming village nestled in a peaceful rural setting, close to Fordingbridge and the New Forest. The nearby A338 offers easy access to the larger market town of Ringwood, which boasts a variety of independent and high street shops, cafes, restaurants, two supermarkets, leisure centres and excellent
Schools.
The cathedral city of Salisbury, located about 8 miles to the north, provides a mainline railway station with direct services to London Waterloo. A minor road from Alderholt also provides a convenient route to main ‘A’ roads leading to Bournemouth and Poole.
The picturesque coastal towns of Christchurch and Bournemouth are around 16 miles to the south, offering stunning beaches and scenic coastal walks. London is approximately a two-hour drive away via the M27 and M3.

The property is entered via a generous entrance hall, immediately setting the tone for the spacious accommodation on offer, with a conveniently positioned cloakroom/WC.
At the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining room, beautifully arranged for both everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of base, wall and drawer units, integrated appliances, space for a fridge freezer, and a central island with breakfast bar seating. The adjoining dining area enjoys direct access onto the decked terrace, creating a natural flow between the indoor and outdoor living spaces.
A large utility room provides excellent practicality, offering further storage and direct access to both the rear garden and the double garage. The ground floor also benefits from a spacious sitting room, a bright conservatory overlooking the gardens, and a dedicated study, ideal for those requiring a comfortable home-working space.
The first floor comprises three generous double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom, including an impressive principal suite with a dressing area and en-suite shower room.

Living in Fordingbridge
Fordingbridge, with its distinctive seven arch bridge spanning the River Avon, rewards discovery. This former market town enjoys an idyllic location between the heath and woodland of the New Forest and rolling chalk downlands of Cranborne Chase. The Avon Valley long-distance footpath from Salisbury to Christchurch runs through the town, meandering beside the Avon. Round and about are some of the loveliest villages, including Rockbourne with the remains of a Roman villa and good, popular pub, the Rose & Thistle, and delightful Breamore with its picturesque Marsh (surviving manorial green) and Elizabethan manor house.
Fordingbridge itself has a high street of interesting independents including an art gallery, architectural salvage yard (a great resource with treasures such as Victorian fireplaces), bookshop and boutiques, and essentials such as butchers and bakers. There’s also a great selection of pubs and restaurants in the area, such as The George in Fordingbridge, The Three Lions at Stuckton and The Foresters at Frogham.
Property in Fordingbridge and surrounding area represents good value for the New Forest and includes character cottages and modern family homes. Families are also attracted by the well-regarded independent schools of Forres Sandle Manor and Moyles Court.
Fordingbridge is positioned just off the main Salisbury to Christchurch Road, so there’s reasonable access to the road networks - including A31 at Ringwood.
