About this property
An impressive forest residence offering a tranquil setting with privacy and seclusion, just a hundred yards from the open forest. The property is set in stunning matue gardens and grounds of just over two acres and further benefits from direct forest access and an oak framed double car port.
Stoney Cross is located on the edge of Minstead, one of the New Forest National Park’s most sought after villages. Minstead has a vibrant community, a village pub/shop (The Trusty Servant), a village hall and a Norman church.
There is direct access onto the open forest providing a network of footpaths and bridleways for walking and riding. Lyndhurst is approximately a seven minute drive away and is the largest village within the New Forest. It is a popular tourist location with many independent shops, art galleries, cafés, restaurants, pubs and hotels. Southampton is a vibrant, modern city which has the popular West Quay shopping centre and many attractions.
The surrounding areas of Southampton and Winchester have a wide selection of well-respected private schools along with several others across the Dorset border. Communications are excellent with east and west access to the M27 and M3 within easy reach and Southampton Parkway station giving a link to London Waterloo within an hour and ten minutes. The coastal resort town of Bournemouth is also only a short drive away.
Entering through a welcoming front door into an enclosed porch area, an entrance hall leads to all principal reception rooms as well as a downstairs W.C and under stairs storage area.
The main reception areas are orientated to the rear of the property benefiting from a southerly aspect. A spacious double aspect sitting room with a fireplace, a wonderful dining room great for entertaining. Doors lead into an impressive conservatory benefitting from spot lighting and rear access out onto the garden. The ground floor has two further reception rooms, both adjacent to the conservatory.
To the other side of the hallway is an impressive kitchen/family room with views overlooking the front aspect and kitchen garden beyond. The kitchen is fitted with wooden cupboards and granite worktop whilst a central island offers further cupboard space and a Bosch microwave. The kitchen further benefits from an electric Rangemaster with extractor over, ceramic butler sink, Neff dishwasher and space for a separate freestanding fridge and freezer. There is further breakfast area with space for a large dining table enjoying views over the garden. The space is finally complemented by a snug/family room housing a modern wood burner in the corner. There is a utility room to the side, ideal for further storage and coats as well as space for a washing machine, extra fridge/freezer and sink. A boiler room and further cloakroom completes the downstairs layout.
Stairs ascend to the first floor where access is gained to the lofts and a large window floods the landing with light.
The impressive principal bedroom enjoys views over the garden to the rear and further offers a large amount of built in wardrobe space. Adjacent to this is a bathroom primarily used as an en-suite to the master. The bathroom offers a freestanding roll top bath, large separate shower, sink, W.C and two heated towel rails.
There are three further generous double bedrooms all serviced by a family bathroom at the other end of the landing comprising a shower, jacuzzi bath, sink, W.C and heated towel rail. A large airing cupboard housing the hot water tank completes the first floor.
Automatic electric gates over a cattle grid lead to a private gravel driveway with mains powered lights to the side. The driveway sweeps round to a gravel turning circle offering ample parking space and a double oak framed car port.
The grounds have two defined areas, the closest to the property predominantly laid to lawn, whilst to the rear there is an enchanting bluebell wood.
A further gate provides another vehicle access useful for the maintenance of the septic tank and the filling up of the oil tank. A pedestrian gate also allows access to the track leading to the open forest beyond. A double framed oak outbuilding provides further storage for gardening equipment or could be used as a summer house / garden studio.
In total the grounds extend to over 2 acres and the plot is secured by CCTV and outside lighting.
