Jasmine Cottage is a pretty black and white character cottage enjoying a privileged, secluded position fronting the open New Forest and set within beautifully maintained gardens extending to ¼ acre.

Owners Comments
“We loved this house, as soon as we first saw it. It has such a cosy feel and has even featured in an episode of Inspector Wexford due to its character appeal.”

“The setting is so beautiful, overlooking miles of open New Forest to the front, private paddocks to the rear yet still so accessible to local amenities and commuter links.”

Introduction
Situated in this highly regarded New Forest setting, this attractive home requires some updating but offers excellent potential for extension to complement its well proportioned accommodation which has retained much of its intrinsic charm. With many of the rooms dual in aspect, the accommodation is beautifully bright and light with attractive views from most windows.

The ground floor offers two well proportioned reception rooms and one of the two bathrooms in addition to the ‘L’ shaped kitchen breakfast room which features patio doors to the private sun terrace and delightful rear gardens. The first floor offers four well sized bedrooms, the master and guest room benefitting from ensuite facilities. The gardens are a delight, generous parking and a double garage to the rear with extensive manicured gardens and a host of timber outbuildings to the rear backing onto private paddocks. Although enjoying this rural setting with stunning countryside views from all aspects, Jasmine Cottage offers excellent commuter links and benefits from well regarded local schooling for all ages both in the state and private sector.

Description
A glazed door opens into the entrance porch which features a panel door with bow window and glazed side panels opening into the entrance hall offering an ornate meter cupboard. A feature of the house is exposed dark wood beams typifying the cottage feel to the property. The sitting room is beautifully bright, triple in aspect centred upon a feature brick fireplace with inset electric fire and ornamental brass fire hood, beneath an oak mantle. Sliding patio doors open onto the rear patio. The dining room offers a traditional feel hosting understairs storage and leads to an inner lobby opening to the spacious fitted bathroom which also hosts a shower cubicle.

The kitchen dining room is also beautifully bright, ‘L’ shaped and fitted with an extensive range of white washed eye and base level units with ample roll edge worktops. Integrated appliances include a gas hob, extractor hood, dishwasher, washer drier and built in Baumatic pyrolytic oven and grill set within exposed brick work. There is also a door to the garden and slide patio doors within the bright breakfast room offering an attractive informal dining venue.

On the first floor are four well proportioned bedrooms. The master features a range of fitted furniture including wardrobes and dressing table with views over the open New Forest. There is also a large ensuite shower room incorporating built in cabinets as well as a shower cubicle, pedestal wash hand basin and low level WC. A guest bedroom benefits from recessed eaves storage, a large airing cupboard and an ensuite WC with wash hand basin whilst the remaining bedrooms offer fitted wardrobe space.

Outside
The property is approached via double five bar gates beneath a Lychgate entrance with a substantial concrete driveway leading to the double garage which features an automated garage door, power and lighting. The property is beautifully secluded by mature hedgerow and offers generous hardstanding, parking and attractive, well stocked flower and shrub borders.

The rear garden is meticulously maintained, offering a high degree of privacy and seclusion, backing onto private paddocks with a manicured lawn, specimen borders and ornamental pond. Adjacent to the house is a well maintained sun patio with low level walling and alpine plants; an ideal resting place in the sunny aspect particularly under the retractable awnings. To the rear of the garage are several timber structures serving as workshops, greenhouse and summer house.
