About this property
Five-bedroom detached residence
Stone’s throw from the open forest
Desirable residential area
Generous parking area and a detached double garage
A wonderful opportunity to acquire this substantial five-bedroom detached residence, extending to in excess of 3,000 sq ft and set within beautiful private grounds and gardens of over an acre. The property offers versatile accommodation with five generously proportioned bedrooms, all of which benefit from en suite facilities. Ideally positioned just a stone’s throw from the open forest and within a short stroll of Ashurst railway station, this exceptional property offers a superb combination of New Forest lifestyle and home-and-income potential.
Woodlands Road is a particularly desirable residential area located on the north eastern edge of the New Forest National Park. The village of Ashurst is host to several pubs, shops, businesses, and restaurants with a wider range of amenities including a doctor’s surgery, sports clubs and further restaurants available in nearby Lyndhurst.
The New Forest offers a wide range of outdoor pursuits and places of interest with the open forest easily accessible for walking and riding. The city of Southampton to the east provides a comprehensive range of retail and leisure facilities. The property is well located for road and rail. Junction 2 of the M27 motorway links up with the M3 motorway for the M25 and London and the nearby villages of Ashurst and Totton offer direct rail links to London Waterloo.
A welcoming entrance hall leads into a well-balanced and exceptionally versatile ground floor, with the accommodation thoughtfully arranged to provide excellent space for both family living and entertaining.
The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of Shaker-style units, complemented by wooden work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances, including double ovens, hob and dishwasher. A useful boot room and separate utility room lie adjacent, providing additional storage and space for appliances.
The substantial sitting room is positioned to the front of the property and features large windows together with an attractive gas fireplace, creating a comfortable and inviting principal reception room. The adjoining study provides an ideal dedicated home-working space and benefits from direct access onto the garden.
To the rear, the dining room flows naturally into the adjoining conservatory, creating a bright and versatile space with an appealing outlook over the gardens. This arrangement lends itself equally well to relaxed family living and entertaining, with the conservatory providing an additional reception area.
A particularly impressive ground floor bedroom enjoys views over the rear garden and is complemented by a walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom, complete with both a bath and separate walk-in shower. A large cloakroom with WC and wash basin completes the ground floor accommodation.
Four further bedrooms are located on the first floor, all of generous proportions and arranged around a central landing. Each bedroom benefits from its own en suite bathroom, creating an exceptionally practical arrangement for family life, while also providing the flexibility to continue the property’s established use as a successful Bed & Breakfast.
The grounds are undoubtedly one of the property’s most appealing features. The house is approached via a private sweeping gravel driveway, which leads to a generous parking area and a detached double brick-built garage. Occupying an almost central position within its grounds, the property enjoys an exceptional degree of privacy and seclusion, with the gardens extending to in excess of one acre and being enclosed by mature trees and established hedging.
The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and are interspersed with established flowers, shrubs and areas of decking, creating a wonderful setting in which to relax and entertain. A picturesque stream runs through the garden and connects to a water reservoir on the property, which the current owners utilise for watering the gardens.
To the rear of the grounds a gate provides access into Fletchwood Copse, owned by Winchester College, if required, an annual permit is available to walk in these magnificent woods of over 200 acres. This further enhances the exceptional lifestyle appeal of this unique property.
An Arctic Cabin occupies a raised decked area within the garden. The cabin has a central bbq pit, seating area and electricity is connected. This provides a wonderful and additional entertaining space. Together with the extensive grounds, private setting and immediate access to the surrounding New Forest, this is a truly special property offering a rare combination of substantial family accommodation, income potential and an enviable rural lifestyle.
