Full Details for 3 Bedroom Detached for sale in Ringwood, BH24 :

A detached, single storey dwelling with potential for development, situated overlooking the open forest at the eastern limit of the picturesque village of Burley. It is a detached single storey dwelling with potential for development standing in a mature garden that affords privacy and seclusion. Approached off the open forest and Mill Lane over a gated, sweeping drive, the property provides parking space for several cars as well as a double garage.

On one side there is a forest paddock that, having not been grazed for some years, now provides a haven for much flora including orchids. There are several spectacular oaks within its curtilage giving the house its current name. The main door opens into 2 reception halls with 2 reception rooms. There is a kitchen with a view of the garden and separate utility room opening to the rear. The well proportioned sitting room opens onto the garden with windows and greenery on 3 sides. 2 well proportioned bedrooms are served by 2 bath/shower rooms (1 en suite). There is also third smaller bedroom.

To the rear of the property is a well screened garden lawn and rockery that features a former swimming pool and its associated timber summerhouse/sauna. In all, the gardens and adjacent paddock land extend to an area of approximately 0.79 acres.

The property has enormous potential and would lend itself to a project of enhancement and, subject to the necessary planning approval, potential to extend into the roof. The plot is superb, and while the house can be enjoyed as it is, there is scope to create an exciting home in this wonderful setting.

3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (1 en suite), sitting room, dining room, kitchen, utility room, swimming pool, sauna
