The property enjoys an idyllic location, situated at the end of a private track between Brockenhurst and Lymington. The village of Brockenhurst lies approximately two miles away and benefits from a mainline station with direct access to London Waterloo and an extensive range of local shops, restaurants, a primary school, a popular tertiary college and the renowned Brockenhurst Golf Club. The Georgian market town of Lymington is approximately two miles south with its extensive yachting facilities, Saturday market and a ferry service to Yarmouth, Isle of Wight.

Set off the driveway are a number of outbuildings comprising a stable/boot room, stable/tack room, shower room and changing facilities for the outdoor pool and guests.

The barn would feature a vaulted ceiling and would be capable of housing multiple vehicles, ribs or a boat.

Grounds & Gardens:

The property is located off a private track and accessed via large electric gates which open onto a gravel driveway with turning circle and an additional parking area set to the side with a double brick built open garage. Set off the turning circle is a double garage.

Extending across the rear elevation of the property is a paved sun terrace enjoying a lovely southerly aspect and direct views across the gardens and paddocks.

The rear garden enjoys a lovely southerly aspect and is mainly laid to lawn, interspersed with beautiful specimen plants and mature trees. The garden wraps around to the side of the property to a wonderful little haven where a beautiful weeping willow tree and a barbeque/seating area form around a swimming pool to create a perfect space for entertaining or relaxation with the benefit of a rather lovely shepherds hut.

Set to the rear of the gardens there are two paddocks which benefit from a water supply and separate access to the road and bridle way.

The eastern boundary of the grounds adjoins and offers magnificent far reaching views across Setley enclosure and the new forest.

To the front aspect is a large field flanked by established tree and hedge borders providing an attractive focal point and offering options for various usages.

In total, the stunning and completely private grounds extend to approximately 7 acres and are surrounded all sides by open forest.

We understand the property also benefits from forest rights and is available with no onward chain.
