OUTSIDE

To the front of the property, a gravelled area provides off-street parking for several vehicles. From here, a gated front garden features a paved pathway leading to the front door, with further access along the side of the property to the rear garden. The front garden is predominantly laid with shingle and enclosed by fencing and mature hedging for added privacy.

Directly adjoining the rear of the property is a delightful patio area, perfect for al fresco dining, while enjoying the elevated views across the garden and the land beyond. The garden is neatly apportioned into different areas of interest and slopes gently down to a lawned area at the bottom, where steps lead to an additional seating terrace overlooking the charming brook below. The garden offers a wonderful recreational space for all and is flanked by established hedging and fence borders.

A charming summer house, providing excellent potential for use as a home office or gym, further enhances this beautiful outdoor space.

LOCATION

Situated within the highly sought-after village of Brook, in the parish of Bramshaw, this charming location is widely regarded as one of the New Forest’s most picturesque and desirable settings. The village offers a strong sense of community and a superb range of local amenities, including a village hall, church, convenience store, two traditional country pubs, a hotel, restaurants, a garage, and the prestigious Bramshaw Golf Club, home to two renowned 18-hole courses.

Surrounded by the natural beauty of the New Forest National Park, residents enjoy direct access to thousands of acres of unspoilt heathland, ancient woodland, and open moorland, ideal for walking, cycling, and equestrian pursuits.

The historic cathedral city of Salisbury lies approximately 16 miles to the north, offering a wider selection of shopping, cultural, and educational facilities.

Excellent transport links include the M27 at Cadnam, just over a mile away, providing fast access to Southampton, Winchester, and London. Mainline rail services from Southampton Central to London Waterloo are approximately a 15-minute drive, as is Southampton Airport, while Bournemouth Airport is reachable in around 25 minutes.

THE PROPERTY

A charming, covered timber-framed porch provides access through the main front door into a spacious entrance hallway. Directly ahead, you are welcomed into a bright and generously proportioned sitting/dining room that spans the full width of the property. This inviting space features a stylish fireplace with an integrated log burner and enjoys delightful views across the garden.

Open to the dining area is a newly fitted kitchen, complete with a range of both base and wall-mounted units, granite work surfaces, integrated appliances, and a separate larder cupboard for additional storage. A side door from the kitchen offers convenient access to both the front and rear gardens.

A staircase rises from the main hallway to the first-floor landing, linking to two double bedrooms, one of which benefits from built-in wardrobe storage and a further single bedroom. The accommodation is completed by a modern four-piece family bathroom.

Living in Minstead

Minstead is a perfect village in miniature. Tucked down a maze of country lanes and surrounded by woodland, it is tranquil and unspoiled, yet surprisingly and accessibly close to junction one of the M27 at Cadnam.

For a small village it punches well above its size in terms of community and history. Overlooking its delightful green is a popular country inn, The Trusty Servant Inn, and a village shop and cafe tea room that serves as a community hub. There’s also a quirky parish church which is the resting place of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes. Nearby are what are thought to be two of the oldest oak trees in the Forest as well as the Rufus Stone, marking the spot where King William II was shot by an arrow.

There’s a busy village hall (the largest in the Forest) which hosts regular antiques and collectors’ markets and the Minstead Players. However, what makes Minstead particularly special are its community-minded organisations including Minstead Study Centre with its sustainability focus and Minstead Training Trust which also runs Furzey Gardens - first planted in 1922 they are ablaze with colour in spring and feature an award-wining garden and ‘fairy doors’ among the trees.
