The Situation

Situated in the highly sought-after village of St Ives, this well-presented home enjoys a convenient position just a short drive from Ringwood town centre, with its excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and leisure facilities.

The property is ideally placed for easy access to the New Forest National Park, Moors Valley Country Park and the A31, providing excellent commuter links to Bournemouth, Southampton, Winchester and beyond. St Ives is particularly popular with families, benefiting from the highly regarded St Ives Primary & Nursery School and being within the catchment area for the well-respected Ringwood School Academy.

Outside

Outside, the property continues to impress. The lawned front garden provides an attractive approach with off-road parking for several vehicles, while a timber gate offers convenient side access to the rear garden. The garden is laid predominantly to lawn with a substantial concrete terrace which has potential to make an ideal base for a garden room/home office subject to any necessary consents. The rear garden provides an excellent space for entertaining, al fresco dining or family enjoyment. A detached garage with an additional store to the rear offers excellent storage or workshop potential.

Agents Note: The front garden is currently laid to lawn but offers excellent potential to create additional off-road parking, subject to any necessary consents

The Property

The entrance hall leads into a welcoming sitting room, positioned at the front of the property and enjoying an abundance of natural light. To the rear, the open plan kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with warm wooden worktops, ample storage cupboards and space for a range of freestanding appliances. Practical hard flooring flows throughout the ground floor, creating a seamless finish that is both stylish and easy to maintain.

There is useful cloakroom with WC, while the washing machine is housed separately, providing a practical utility solution without compromising the living space.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys a pleasant front aspect and benefits from built-in wardrobes. Bedroom two is another comfortable double room, also featuring fitted storage, while bedroom three is a versatile dual-aspect room, ideal as a guest bedroom, nursery or home office. The accommodation is completed by a well-appointed three-piece family bathroom.

Living in Ringwood

Ringwood offers the best of all worlds. This old market town is positioned on the edge of the New Forest, yet is just ten minutes drive to the coast and also has easy access to the A31, with London, Southampton and Winchester in one direction and Bournemouth in the other.

It is an increasingly popular destination for home hunters. Best known as the home of Ringwood Brewery (inspiration for the current boom in microbreweries), it is undergoing a re-identification. The old cattle market has been transformed into a stylish shopping quarter with names such as Aga, Hobbs, Joules, Waitrose and Waterstones, and a programme of events that includes live music and farmers’ markets. The adjacent high street has retained its character, with a traditional weekly market and a selection of independents, a new artisan bakery, and a variety of decent eateries such as Framptons and Noisy Lobster.

Families are attracted by the sense of community and highly regarded secondary school (its sixth form provision rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted). There is a wide range of property from thatched cottages, through Victorian and Edwardian villas to tree-lined closes of homes built between the wars and every decade from mid-century onwards.

To the north are the quieter, untouched reaches of the Forest and larger country houses. To the west Ringwood is bounded by the River Avon and Avon Castle, a private estate of big, individual, contemporary properties in large plots, many with views across the water meadows. Avon Castle appeals to those looking for privacy and seclusion, and also attracts people moving from London in search of country life combined with contemporary living.
