Forestside Gardens, Ringwood, BH24 1SZ

Positioned in a popular residential cul-de-sac in Poulner, well placed for local schools, shops, the Post Office and doctors’ surgery, all of which can be reached on foot.

Ringwood town centre is approximately a mile and a quarter away, while the open spaces of the New Forest National Park are similarly close by.

Occupying a private corner plot of approximately 0.11 acres, this three/four-bedroom detached home has been extensively modernised to provide around 1,617 sq ft of versatile family accommodation.

Two separate driveways provide extensive parking, complemented by an electric vehicle charging point and a detached single garage.

The entrance porch opens into a welcoming hallway with LVT flooring, storage beneath the stairs and a cloakroom/WC.

From here, the living room provides a generous separate reception space, enjoying windows on two sides and a glazed door opening onto the garden.

A timber slatted feature wall and fitted corner shelving add character without detracting from the room’s comfortable proportions.

At the heart of the house is the impressive L-shaped kitchen/dining/family room, which has been designed as a sociable space for everyday family life and entertaining.

The kitchen is fitted with deep blue cabinetry, grey quartz work surfaces and a breakfast bar, with space for a range cooker, dishwasher and freestanding fridge/freezer.

There is plenty of room for a large dining table and further seating, while two sets of full-height glazed doors open directly onto the patio and garden.

A side lobby provides independent access to both the driveway and garden, leading through to a separate utility room and the ground-floor study or fourth bedroom.

Currently used as a home office, this area gives the house useful flexibility and could equally suit a guest bedroom, space for an older child or relative, or potential annexe-style accommodation, subject to any necessary alterations and consents.

Upstairs are three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from windows on two sides, two built-in double wardrobes and an en suite shower room.

Both remaining bedrooms include built-in storage, with one also providing access to the insulated and partly boarded loft.

A family bathroom with a bath and separate walk-in shower completes the first-floor accommodation.

The rear garden is a particularly good size, extending to approximately 50 feet in both width and depth.

It is mainly laid to lawn with established planting around the boundaries, together with two paved terraces providing ample space for outdoor seating and dining.

One patio is positioned immediately outside the kitchen/dining/family room, creating a natural continuation of the main living space during the warmer months.

Gated access leads to one of the two driveways and the detached garage, which has light, power and a pedestrian door from the garden.

The second driveway provides further parking on the opposite side of the house, making the property particularly well suited to a family with several vehicles, a caravan or a motorhome.

Planning permission was granted in May 2023 under application reference 23/10534 for a further rear extension to enlarge the kitchen.

Interested parties should confirm the current status of this consent with the local planning authority.
