A detached two bedroom cottage located in a quiet, semi-rural lane within easy reach of Lymington and New Milton. The property offers traditional charm and period features, with well-proportioned accommodation and scope for improvement or extension, subject to the necessary permissions.
The ground floor
Inside, the front entrance opens into a hall with flagstone flooring and storage under the stairs. The sitting room features a brick fireplace on a slate hearth, part wood panelling, and display shelves. The living room, which could be used as a third bedroom, has exposed beams and a cast iron fireplace with a wooden surround. The kitchen and dining area is a spacious, light-filled room with plenty of cupboards, a four-ring gas hob with oven, and space for appliances. Exposed beams and a small glazed door give access to the garden from the dining area. There is a cloakroom with a low-level WC off the lobby, and a bathroom with a bath and shower attachment, fully tiled walls, wash basin, and radiator.
The first floor
Upstairs, the landing leads to two double bedrooms. The main bedroom includes a built-in wardrobe, while the second has a brick feature fireplace.
Outside
