About this property
Three Bedroom Foresters Cottage
Located in the Heart of the New Forest
In Need of Complete Modernisation
Close to the Open Forest
A wonderful opportunity to acquire a three bedroom foresters cottage in the heart of the New Forest, which is now in need of complete modernisation. The property found fame during WW1 with the remarkable landing of a biplane on the roof. The cottage offers tremendous potential for buyers wishing to design and create the environment of their next home by extending or refurbishing the existing footprint. Subject to the usual consents being granted.
The cottage occupies a glorious position in a quiet cul de sac directly across the road from the expansive open areas of the New Forest. The house is perfectly situated to enjoy open walks and cycle rides across the adjacent Forest while also being only four miles from the market town of Lymington. There is a nearby well regarded Pub at East Boldre approximately 500 yards away. There are excellent marinas, sailing clubs and facilities at both Lymington and Bucklers Hard while Brockenhurst station (7 miles) provides direct rail services to London Waterloo in approximately 2 hours.
The property is located across from the open forest a short walk from the local village store and the Turf Cutters pub. The cottage is listed as a property of local interest and as such it is unlikely that the property can be demolished. It is suggested that only a full refurbishment will be allowed by the local council. There is a covered porch that opens in to the main lounge with a feature fireplace and door through to the inner hallway. From here there is rear access to the back garden and a door through to the kitchen. Stairs rise to the first floor landing with two double bedrooms and a third small bedroom, plus a bathroom suite.
Please be aware that this property is in a particularly poor state of repair and careful viewing is required. We therefore strongly recommend that viewings be limited to and please advise us if you have any questions surrounding accessibility. We also advise that old clothing and solid boots are worn when going inside the property.
A five bar gate opens into a parking area. The cottage sits neatly in the centre of the plot and as such has a wrap around garden with various mature plantings, shrubs and bushes.
