THE SITUATION

New Milton sits in a prime location with the New Forest to the north and Barton on Sea to the south. This market town attracts families, drawn by its strong community, range of facilities, mainline station and schooling provision. There are acclaimed independent schools, including Durlston Court and Ballard School, both rated ‘excellent’, while state schools include New Milton Infants judged ‘outstanding’, New Milton Junior rated ‘good’, and Arnewood Secondary which is ‘good’ with ‘outstanding’ 16-19 study programme.

The town centre has a strong selection of shops, among them butcher, bakery, M&S Food and a traditional quality department store. Leisure facilities feature an arts centre with a programme of performances and workshops, health and sports centre with pool, recreation ground and skatepark.

THE PROPERTY

You approach the property via a brick-paved front driveway leading to a UPVC front door and entrance porch. This enclosed porch is a practical space, ideal for shoes and coats, ideal for a hanging area and shoe rack.

From here, an inner door opens into a welcoming entrance hallway, which provides access to the main accommodation, WC, understairs cupboard and staircase to the first floor.

On the left-hand side, there is a spacious, square-shaped kitchen that enjoys a double aspect and excellent natural light. The kitchen features a comprehensive range of wall-mounted and floor-standing units with wraparound worktops, along with fitted appliances. The sink is positioned beneath a window that overlooks the front of the property, and a UPVC side door provides convenient access to the side path, which leads around to the garden.

From the hallway, a door opens into the full-width sitting room with dining area situated at the rear of the property. This generously proportioned room benefits from large windows and south-facing patio doors that open directly onto the private garden. A central feature fireplace adds a cosy focal point to the space, making it perfect for family gatherings or entertaining.

Taking the staircase from the entrance hallway brings you to the first-floor landing, where you can access all three bedrooms of which two have storage cupboards, the family bathroom, an airing cupboard, and a loft hatch for additional storage.

The principal bedroom is a well-sized double with dual-aspect, south facing windows facing the front. It also benefits from an en-suite shower room, comprising a WC, wash hand basin, shower cubicle, and a window for natural light and ventilation.

Bedroom two is another comfortable double, with a window overlooking the rear garden, while bedroom three is a generous single room – ideal for use as a child’s bedroom, nursery, or home office—with a similar rear aspect.

Also located off the landing is the main family bathroom, fitted with a WC, wash hand basin, and a bathtub with overhead shower.

OUTSIDE

Externally, the property overlooks Fawcett Fields and benefits from ample parking solutions. In addition to the brick driveway at the front, there is a covered carport at the rear of the property, accessed via double-opening wooden gates along the side. This extra space makes it ideal for families with multiple vehicles or for storing boats, bikes, or trailers.

The rear garden is south-facing, providing a sunny and private outdoor space that’s easy to maintain. There is also gated side access from the front of the property, a side door into the kitchen, and a large garden shed with power, located at the back of the carport – ideal for a workshop, storage, or hobby room.

Living in Barton on Sea

Barton on Sea enjoys a stunning coastal location with views stretching from Hurst Castle to Hengistbury Head. In addition it benefits from all of the facilities of neighbouring New Milton, such as mainline station, arts centre, weekly market and range of shops.

Although Barton on Sea has a history dating back to Anglo Saxon times it developed relatively recently and comprises mostly avenues and closes of mid-century and later detached family homes, plus a row of old coastguard cottages, substantial properties in big plots with even bigger views on Barton Common Road and some imaginative new builds including town houses.

Traditionally it has been a popular area for those considering retiring, but it also offers a great deal for families with parks and excellent state and independent schooling. New Milton Junior School is rated ‘good’ by Ofsted, while both New Milton Infant School and The Arnewood School (11-19 Academy), are rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted. And Durlston Court Preparatory is ranked an impressive number 46 in The Times list of the top 100 independent prep schools.
