Full Details for 3 Bedroom Cottage for sale in Fordingbridge, SP6 :
SUMMARY A charming detached cottage within a sought after forest location in the New Forest National Park with stunning panoramic views over miles of countryside. The property has been extensively modernised by the current owners, benefitting from a detached double garage, an impressive sun lounge, high quality fitted kitchen, three good size bedrooms and a further two receptions one of which accommodates a wood burning stove. The property is served by oil fired central heating and is double glazed throughout with smooth finished ceilings and presented in excellent decorative order.
SITUATION Situated adjacent to Hyde Common, an open space within the forest and on the edge of the New Forest National Park in the Western Escarpment Conservation area. Frogham is a well sought after part of the forest, in the main for the elevated position and advantageous views but also for the local infant school and small village which include a local rustic country pub and farm shop all within a short stroll.
ACCOMMODATION The current owners have modernised the cottage extensively during their time in ownership and have managed to retain the essence of a forest cottage perfectly combining a modern living environment with the character that endears us all to this style of home. The property benefits from UPVC double glazing and oil central heating as well as an impressive electric AGA in the kitchen and some wonderfully preserved leaded light picture windows within double glazed units.
The approach to the cottage is along a country lane to a select few houses in an elevated position capitalising on the wonderful views with a canopy porch entrance where the original windows have been carefully preserved within double glazed windows and doors. The entrance to the property at the rear is over a cattle grid into an area of hardstanding that offers an access from the rear of the cottage into the rear hallway. Off the hallway there is a usefully situated cloakroom and access to the living room which offers spectacular views to the rear and is dual aspect to the side. The living room is fitted with a character wood burning stove within a brick hearth fireplace and has multiple wall light points. The second reception 'snug' makes the most of the rear views with the arrangement of furniture and good use of the understairs area as an office with a focal fireplace feature, fitted book shelves and a dual aspect window letting in plenty of natural light. The kitchen has an aspect to the rear courtyard and has been fabulously brought up to date whilst retaining its character with attractive cream farmhouse style units under a granite work top surface, an impressive electric AGA and integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher. From the kitchen there is an opening into the sun lounge, a room which understandably makes the best of the views with UPVC double glazed windows and double doors opening onto the rear garden, a room with plenty of natural light with a vaulted ceiling and velux and exposed brick walls that lend well to the general theme. From the snug stairs give access to the first floor landing, first floor bedrooms and main bathroom. The master bedroom is complemented by a large modernised shower room en-suite which is fully tiled to the walls and floor and is completed with a vanity wash hand basin unit and chrome ladder style heated towel rail. The two remaining bedrooms are double bedrooms one of which shares the fabulous far reaching views with the master bedroom.
EXTERNALLY To add to the internal accommodation there is a laundry room which houses all the white goods on the rear of the detached double garage. The garage has a remote up and over electric door and there is space for parking in the courtyard area. To the side of the property there is additional parking which as with the courtyard is laid to block paving with an attractive timber pergola. Access to the main garden is possible from both sides of the property and the façade overlooks a raised tier which has been beautifully landscaped with steps that lead down to a sun dial patio area laid mainly to shingle and finished to the borders with a brick pillar parapet and shaped dwarf hedging. On one side of the garden there is a summer house with a raised timber terrace allowing storage below and a greenhouse. The remainder of the garden slopes down towards the rear boundary and is mainly laid to lawn with a plethora of flower and shrubs and of course the influential Magnolia tree.
