An impressive and highly versatile two-bedroom semi-detached former Exbury Estate cottage, believed to date back to the early 1800s. In recent years, the property has undergone thoughtful refurbishment, resulting in a seamless blend of characterful period features, classic country charm, and modern open-plan living. The cottage is further enhanced by a beautiful English country garden, a range of useful outbuildings, and approximately six acres of well-managed woodland beyond, creating a truly special rural retreat. Ideally located close to the renowned Exbury Gardens, with footpaths leading to the Beaulieu River and just a couple of miles from the beach at Lepe.

This impressive space features vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, enhancing the sense of character and light. The kitchen is well-appointed with a range of cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a shelved larder, and flows into a useful utility/baking room with access to the garden.
