The property is nestled in a tranquil position on a quiet forest track. Set behind a cattle grid, this appealing retreat continues to impress in the form of a generous sized plot, of approximately a third of an acre. The attractive grounds, which are mainly laid-to-lawn and level, encompass the property as there are generous areas to both the side and front, providing a secluded and private feel. The property enjoys a set-back position behind gates and with a long sweeping driveway, providing ample space for several vehicles.

This cherished home provides a true ‘blank canvas’ opportunity for a discerningbuyer. The existing bungalow features a traditional layout that would benefit from renovation throughout, making it an ideal prospect for those looking to customise a home to their exact specifications or potentially build a substantial country residence in an attractive New Forest location.

The current layout offers well-proportioned accommodation arranged over a single storey, comprising: A welcoming central hall providing access to all principal rooms. A generous, bright sitting room, with sliding doors out to and overlooking the mature gardens. A formal dining area positioned adjacent to the sitting room at the rear of the property. A spacious kitchen, again with a pleasant outlook of the rear grounds, offering an excellent footprint for modernization or integration into a larger open-plan space. The principal bedroom is of an ample size and enjoys a private aspect, while there is a spacious guest bedroom. There is a good size family bathroom, located well to serve both bedrooms. An integral garage, accessible externally at present could also offer potential for conversion into additional living space or direct integration into the main home.

Honeysuckle Cottage lies approximately a mile from the centre of Burley, arguably one of the most beautiful and sought after villages in The New Forest. It is ideally situated to make full use of all the wonderful facilities the Forest has to offer. Whether it be sailing at nearby Lymington (12 miles) or golf at one of the many courses in the area including nearby Burley and Brockenhurst with its mainline railway station (8 miles, Waterloo 90 minutes). The market town of Ringwood is but a short drive away (5 miles). The larger shopping towns of Southampton (20 miles) to the east and Bournemouth (16 miles) to the west, both with their airports, are easily accessible.

Living in Burley

The first Spencers New Forest office was established here in Burley, a honeypot village that feels untouched by time with its traditional cafes, cider farm, gift shops and tales of old smuggling routes, witches and dragons.

This is the New Forest on holiday as imagined by visitors: quaint and old-fashioned with ponies wandering down the high street. In Burley there’s a perpetual feeling of having escaped, that you are away from it all, especially as it is tucked in the lee of wooded slopes.

In fact Burley has easy access to the A31 (across heathland with spectacular views) and routes west to Bournemouth and east to Southampton, while the mainline station at Brockenhurst is only a short drive away across the Forest.

There’s a lovely sense of community in Burley and it is noticeable that once people move here many are reluctant to move out of the area. A range of activities to enjoy locally includes cycling, horse riding, coarse fishing and Burley Golf Club with a nine-hole heathland course.

The property market is dominated by picturesque thatched cottages and large country homes that feel discreetly hidden away, many with access to open Forest.
