A welcoming entrance hall, accessed via a composite glazed door, immediately sets the tone. To one side, a useful study, currently utilised as a boot room while to the other, a delightful sitting room features exposed wooden floorboards, a bay window, and a cosy wood burner set within a timber surround and tiled hearth.

The ground floor continues to a conveniently located cloakroom, offering potential to be upgraded into a full wet room if desired. To the rear, the property truly comes into its own with a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining space, ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining. Flooded with natural light from dual patio doors and side windows, this inviting room enjoys lovely views over the garden. The kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with wooden work surfaces, a range of base and wall units, integrated full-height fridge and freezer, dishwasher, and a stainless steel sink, alongside an oven, grill, and four-ring gas hob with extractor. A separate utility room provides additional practicality, with space for laundry appliances and direct access to the garden.

Upstairs, the accommodation is well-balanced and versatile. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while two further double bedrooms, one featuring a charming bay window and built-in storage, and a single bedroom are served by a modern family bathroom complete with a P-shaped bath and shower over, vanity unit, and heated towel rail.

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.

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.
