The Manor House, Lake Grove Road, New Milton, BH25 5NX

Encapsulating over three centuries of rich history, The Manor House is a residence of exceptional distinction.

An elegant Grade II listed five-bedroom home, extending to approximately 3,036 sq ft, it seamlessly marries period grandeur with the expectations of contemporary living.

Believed to date back to the early 1700s, it is now regarded as one of the town’s most prestigious and architecturally significant homes.

Positioned just moments from Ballard School, the mainline station, and the vibrant High Street, the setting offers a rare balance of connectivity and tranquillity.

Directly opposite, the scenic backdrop of Ballard Lake and Water Meadow provides a picturesque outlook, where open green space and natural beauty create an atmosphere that is both peaceful and quintessentially English.

Externally, the grounds are both elegant and thoughtfully arranged, with level lawns, mature planting, and carefully positioned seating areas designed to capture sunlight throughout the day.

A raised decked terrace provides a more secluded setting, while a covered veranda offers a charming and sheltered space for al fresco dining or morning coffee, whatever the season.

The property further benefits from an underground cellar, offering valuable additional space ideally suited for storage or potential bespoke use.

The approach to the property is equally well considered, with gated access enhancing a sense of privacy, and a bespoke carport providing discreet, sheltered parking to the side.

The Manor House is, above all, a home of presence, heritage, and enduring appeal - presenting a rare opportunity to acquire a property of genuine provenance, beautifully balanced for modern living.

Eschewing a conventional layout, the accommodation unfolds with a natural, almost narrative flow, each room revealing its own unique character.

At its heart lies an impressive reception hall, currently arranged as a formal dining space - a room distinguished by its proportions, rich wood panelling, and feature fireplace, perfectly suited to both grand-scale entertaining and more intimate occasions.

The principal sitting room offers a contrasting yet harmonious ambience — a refined and deeply comfortable retreat where natural light streams through large period windows, highlighting original detailing and enhancing the room’s serene, inviting atmosphere.

The kitchen forms the true social hub of the home, thoughtfully designed as a space for both gathering and culinary excellence.

Centred around a classic Aga, it features a substantial island, expansive work surfaces, and seamlessly integrated appliances, all combining to create an environment that is as practical as it is beautifully appointed.

Across the upper floors, the accommodation has been carefully configured to provide both privacy and versatility.

The principal suite benefits from a dual aspect, fitted storage, and a generously proportioned en-suite bathroom, while additional large double bedrooms are arranged across the first and second floors, complemented by further en-suite facilities and refined family bathrooms - ideal for guests, family life, or flexible working arrangements.
