About this property
Amberwood occupies a truly exceptional position, tucked away at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac and approached via a private driveway. Set within a secluded plot extending to just in excess of half an acre, the property enjoys a unique woodland setting, surrounded by mature trees and offering an outstanding degree of privacy and tranquillity within walking distance of Lymington High Street.
As you approach the house there is a large parking area providing access to the front of the property which leads into a welcoming reception hall with cloakroom.
A glazed door opens into the impressive kitchen/dining/family room, which forms the heart of the home. The kitchen is fitted with a range cooker with units to either side, together with space and plumbing for a washing machine, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer. A breakfast bar subtly divides the kitchen from the dining and family area, where feature wood-panelled walls, stairs to the first floor, and bi-fold doors opening onto the deck create a wonderful space for modern living and entertaining.
A glazed door leads through to the sitting room, a characterful and inviting space featuring panelled walls, a wood-burning stove, and full-width bi-fold doors opening onto a south-facing terrace with delightful views over the garden. Attractive wood block and herringbone flooring runs throughout the ground floor, adding warmth and character.
To the first floor, the landing provides access to the loft space and a useful linen cupboard. There are three bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with wood flooring, panelled walls, fitted wardrobe cupboards, and a pleasant front aspect.
The second bedroom is a spacious double room with fitted storage, while the third bedroom is a good-sized single room with additional storage. These are served by a well-appointed shower room fitted with a walk-in shower, wash basin, WC, and heated towel rail.
The grounds are a particular highlight of the property. Extending to in excess of half an acre, the gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature tree-lined boundaries, creating a remarkable sense of privacy and seclusion.
A substantial wraparound deck provides the perfect space for relaxing and an outside dining space with a pleasant aspect over the garden.
To the front of the property is a versatile outbuilding, currently under construction and designed to provide two separate rooms with bi-fold doors. The building will be completed to a stage that allows purchasers to adapt the accommodation to suit their own requirements, whether as a home office, studio, gym, or ancillary accommodation. The building is connected to electricity, water, and drainage.
Further within the grounds is an additional area suitable for another outbuilding, with electricity and water supplies already in place. Amberwood also benefits from pedestrian access onto Southampton Road, adding further convenience to this unique setting.
Location - Amberwood enjoys a rare combination of privacy and convenience, occupying a tranquil woodland setting whilst remaining within easy reach of Lymington town centre. The Georgian High Street offers an excellent selection of independent boutiques, cafés, restaurants, and community facilities, together with its renowned Saturday market.
Lymington is widely recognised as one of the South Coast's premier sailing centres, with its marinas, yacht clubs, and access to the Solent attracting boating enthusiasts from across the region. The nearby sea wall and coastal paths provide superb opportunities for walking and enjoying the surrounding coastline.
To the north lies the beautiful New Forest National Park, offering miles of open countryside for walking, cycling, and riding. Nearby Brockenhurst provides a mainline railway station with direct services to London Waterloo in approximately 90 minutes, while Southampton and Bournemouth airports are both easily accessible. This exceptional location provides the best of both worlds – a peaceful retreat yet within easy reach of the amenities and lifestyle attractions that make Lymington such a desirable place to live.
