About
Tucked away in a wonderfully private New Forest setting, enjoying direct access out onto the open forest, this characterful detached cottage offers an enchanting blend of charm and versatility all set within approximately half an acre of grounds benefitting from stables and a detached double garage.
The property is quietly situated in a prime New Forest location within a short walk from the village of Sway.
Sway offers a useful mainline rail connection (London Waterloo approximately 100 minutes) together with a range of shops, a highly regarded primary school, two public houses and a popular Tennis Club.
The famed Georgian market town of Lymington, renowned for its river, marinas and yacht clubs offers a diverse range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities, along with a branch line connection to Brockenhurst (approx.
4 miles north east) that again provides a rail connection to London (Waterloo) in approximately 90 minutes.
The property offers direct forest access to the front which opens up to open heathland and forest enclosures, ideally for walking, cycling and horse riding.
At the heart of the home, the sitting room is a beautifully cosy retreat.
An inglenook fireplace with a woodburning stove forms a natural focal point, complemented by a deep bay window with garden views.
The dining area, with built-in seating and charming details, connects effortlessly to the sitting room creating a social hub.
The garden room itself is a standout feature, flooded with natural light from vaulted ceilings and Velux windows, and opening directly onto the terrace, it provides a seamless connection between inside and out.
The kitchen is thoughtfully arranged with granite worktops, integrated appliances and traditional styling that sits perfectly within the cottage’s character, while a separate utility room adds practicality and convenience.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged to offer flexibility.
The principal bedroom enjoys a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and a peaceful outlook, along with access to a Jack & Jill shower room shared with the second bedroom.
The second bedroom benefits from doors opening out to the garden, enhancing the connection to the surrounding landscape.
A third bedroom, complete with its own cloakroom, provides an ideal guest space or study.
Outside, the gardens are a delightful mix of lawn, established planting and inviting seating areas, designed to make the most of the tranquil surroundings.
A small paddock lies beyond, alongside a vegetable garden and a well-kept chicken run.
For equestrian or hobby use, two generous brick built stables and a useful outbuilding sit within the grounds, complemented by a double garage and ample driveway parking, including a large area of hardstanding ideal for parking a horse box or motorhome.
