The kitchen is fitted with a contemporary work surface, excellent storage, and high-quality integrated appliances, making it as functional as it is stylish.

Upstairs, a large principal bedroom enjoys uninterrupted views over farmland and benefits from a Juliet balcony and a modern three-piece suite with full-size bath services bedrooms 1 and 2.

The second double bedroom also enjoys beautiful rural views.

THE SITUATION

Located in a wonderful, elevated position in the hamlet of Stuckton within the New Forest National Park, about a mile to the east of the Avon Valley town of Fordingbridge, which has a good array of shops including a Co-op and a Tesco Express.

Nearby are the New Forest villages of Frogham, Hyde, Godshill and Woodgreen, with local country pubs including The Three Lions, The Foresters and The Fighting Cocks just a short distance away. Other facilities include a local farm shop and primary school.

The New Forest National Park, which offers 140,000 acres of unspoilt open heath, moors, and stunning woodlands, is perfect for outdoor pursuits including horse riding, walking and cycling. Water sports and yachting centres are within easy reach, in particular, superb marinas at Lymington and Poole.

The New Forest market town of Ringwood is a short drive away offering a superb range of shops, boutiques, cafes, and restaurants, as well as good access via the A31 to both Bournemouth (to the west) and Southampton (to the east). The Cathedral City of Salisbury is about 8 miles to the north, offering a mainline railway station with regular services direct to London Waterloo in just under 90 minutes.

There are excellent schools in the vicinity, both State and private, and two local airports, one at Hurn (Bournemouth) and one at Eastleigh (Southampton).

OUTSIDE

Outside, the garden is mainly laid to lawn with a paved terrace, ideal for entertaining or enjoying the peaceful setting.

A gated rear access leads to a communal walkway, while allocated parking is provided within a residents’ parking area, along with additional guest parking.

Living in Fordingbridge

Fordingbridge, with its distinctive seven arch bridge spanning the River Avon, rewards discovery. This former market town enjoys an idyllic location between the heath and woodland of the New Forest and rolling chalk downlands of Cranborne Chase. The Avon Valley long-distance footpath from Salisbury to Christchurch runs through the town, meandering beside the Avon. Round and about are some of the loveliest villages, including Rockbourne with the remains of a Roman villa and good, popular pub, the Rose & Thistle, and delightful Breamore with its picturesque Marsh (surviving manorial green) and Elizabethan manor house.

Fordingbridge itself has a high street of interesting independents including an art gallery, architectural salvage yard (a great resource with treasures such as Victorian fireplaces), bookshop and boutiques, and essentials such as butchers and bakers. There’s also a great selection of pubs and restaurants in the area, such as The George in Fordingbridge, The Three Lions at Stuckton and The Foresters at Frogham.

Property in Fordingbridge and surrounding area represents good value for the New Forest and includes character cottages and modern family homes. Families are also attracted by the well-regarded independent schools of Forres Sandle Manor and Moyles Court.

Fordingbridge is positioned just off the main Salisbury to Christchurch Road, so there’s reasonable access to the road networks - including A31 at Ringwood.
