Situated on the outskirts of Lymington the house is both conveniently positioned for Lymington’s many amenities while also enjoying direct and expansive views over the open countryside of the Lymington River valley.

The property is close to both South Baddesley Primary School and Walhampton Independent School. Also within walking distance is Walhampton Golf Club and the two large deep water marinas and sailing clubs, for which the town has gained its status as a world renowned sailing resort.

Lymington has a number of independent shops including some designer boutiques and is surrounded by the outstanding natural beauty of the New Forest National Park. To the North is the New Forest village of Lyndhurst and Junction 1 of the M27 which links to the M3. Lymington train station is within walking distance and the branch line links to Brockenhurst Railway Station (approx. 5.5miles) which provides a half hourly service to London Waterloo with a journey time of approximately 90 minutes.

The front door opens to a charming entrance hall with herringbone brick flooring leading to both a large boot room and the kitchen / family room. The kitchen is beautifully finished with Mark Wilkinson units and a range of integrated appliances. There is also a central island unit with electric hob and breakfast bar. The kitchen forms the heart of the house and has direct access to both the formal sitting room and the more informal, cosy family room. Both the sitting room has a wood burning stove and door to the annexe; both sitting room and family room have doors directly onto the garden. Completing the ground floor is a beautiful drawing room with vaulted ceiling, French windows to the garden and wood burning stove. Beyond the drawing room is a further room currently used as an office.

Upstairs there is a master bedroom suite with main bedroom with vaulted ceiling and built in wardrobes, adjoining shower room and separate dressing room, which also has an adjoining bathroom so could be used as an additional bedroom. Within the main house there are also two further double bedrooms, each of which incorporate a dressing area and adjoining bath / shower room.

The annexe can be reached internally via a door in the sitting room and has its own front door and garden. This flexibility allows the annexe space to either be incorporated within the main house or separated off to provide a self contained three bedroom cottage, complete with kitchen / dining room, sitting room, two shower rooms and a bathroom. The annexe has its own garden, and would be ideal for extended family, long term rental or holiday lets. 

The current owners have the annexe set up as a popular holiday let which generates a very healthy income. More details available from the agent. 

The property is approached through red brick pillars entering onto a sweeping gravel drive. There is extensive parking at the front of the driveway for the annexe incorporating a large turning area adjacent to the house. The drive continues to the large barn allowing a vast area for cars but also the storage of boating, equestrian or classic car collection. The gardens wrap around the house on all sides and have been separated into different areas which include formal lawns, a private lawned annexe garden, sun patio and landscaped cottage garden with far reaching views across the rolling fields.
