SITUATION

Superbly situated directly adjoining the open forest, where horses, donkeys and cattle have freedom to roam throughout this popular hamlet. Pilley is an extremely attractive and sought after village in the New Forest National Park, being equal distance between the nearby Georgian market town of Lymington which is famous for its internationally renowned sailing facilities and two deep water marinas and Brockenhurst, which offers an excellent local community of independent shops and restaurants, together with a mainline railway station which has a half hourly service to London Waterloo (approx. 90 minutes).

THE PROPERTY

A generously proportioned semi rural bungalow offering exciting scope for extension and enlargement (subject to the necessary planning), set on a substantial plot with a south-facing rear garden, outbuildings and extensive surrounding grounds. 

The spacious accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall and a naturally bright, dual-aspect open-plan kitchen/family room, fitted with a range of cupboard units and work surfaces. Sliding double doors open directly onto the south-facing garden, creating an ideal space for alfresco dining. An elegant dual-aspect sitting room, with a bay window to the front, offers the flexibility for a potential fourth bedroom. Three further double bedrooms – two over looking the front and one overlooking the rear garden – are served by an independent family bathroom. Stairs rise to a generous loft space with Velux-style windows which, subject to the required planning permission, offers excellent potential for conversion.

GROUNDS & GARDENS

Outside there is a cattle grid from the road, which leads to the double garages and outbuildings. The front and rear gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, bordered by well-stocked flower beds and interspersed with a mature mix of trees and hedging, providing a high degree of privacy. The rear garden is particuarly attractive being South facing with far reaching views across paddock land.
