The property is located of a highly regarded road on the periphery of the village of Sway within easy reach of local amenities and the open forest. The village offers a useful mainline rail connection to Southampton and London Waterloo (approximately 100 minutes) together with a range of shops, a thriving community, well regarded primary school, church, doctor’s surgery and the Jubilee fields offering fantastic recreation facilities including tennis courts, a football pitch and a cricket ground all set around a pavilion clubhouse.

The Georgian market town of Lymington, famed for its river, marinas, yacht clubs and coastline, is within a 4 mile drive over the forest. The neighbouring New Forest village of Brockenhurst (4 miles), again with a mainline rail connection, offers further leisure, shopping and educational amenities, as well as a popular 18 hole golf course.

Quarr House is a period country house converted into luxury apartments known for its landscaped grounds and historical character. This beautifully presented ground floor apartment is very spacious and benefits from its own front door, stained glass windows, high ceilings and large sash windows affording views of the surrounding landscaped gardens.

To the right of the entrance hall is the utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer, sink with tiled splash backs, worktop and storage under. Access to the garage is next to this space and a further door leads out to the parking area. To the left of the entrance hall is the well-proportioned sitting room with windows overlooking the gardens, with stylish wood-panel walls and a feature open fireplace with stone surround and hearth.

An archway leads into the kitchen which comprises bespoke wooden cabinetry with storage cupboards to base and wall height, a central island incorporates a four ring induction hob, wine rack, hidden bin cupboard and breakfast bar. There are integral double ovens, space for a dishwasher and American fridge/freezer, ceramic white sink with chrome mixer tap.

The dining area has wooden flooring, two large storage cupboards and sash window overlooking the rear garden.

Living in Sway

This leafy village on the southern edge of the New Forest has everything you could want for family life in the Forest. There’s a village primary school rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted, a vibrant community with annual carnival, village hall (activities range from archery to yoga), plus cricket, football and tennis clubs. And while there’s easy access to the Forest’s open grassland, heathland and woodland for dog walking and cycling, Sway is off the Forest’s usual tourist tracks and feels peaceful and relaxed.

The village centre combines the unusual with the desirable: a contemporary arts hub, quality businesses like Sway Woodburning Centre, mainline railway station, choice of popular pubs, good cafe/deli, award-winning butcher’s, village store and post office among others.

Property is an attractive pick ‘n’ mix of everything including substantial country houses, individual modern builds in good-sized plots, family homes, imaginative refurbishments, closes of quality new terraces, chalet bungalows and a smattering of Edwardian semi-detached villas and thatched cottages.

Sway’s claims to fame include 200-foot high Sway Tower, the tallest structure made out of non-reinforced concrete, and the countryside around Sway was the setting for Captain Marryat’s work The Children of the New Forest.
