SUMMARY A wonderfully spacious detached character thatched house within grounds approaching a third of an acre and offering in excess of 2300 sq.ft. of internal accommodation with plentiful parking, landscaped gardens and a large double garage within the sought after New Forest village of Bransgore. The property and grounds are beautifully presented and private within a short level walk of village shops. The generous accommodation offers four first floor bedrooms with an en-suite to the master and three ground floor reception rooms which includes a fabulous vaulted ceiling living room, plus a study, kitchen/breakfast room and utility. The original cottage is believed to date back to the mid 1700\‘s with several later additions. The property is served by mains services which include electric, water, sewerage and gas and the heating and hot water is supplied through a gas fired central heating system.  

SITUATION Bransgore is an attractive village in the New Forest district of Hampshire and straddles the border of the New Forest National Park. Its Parish is among the hamlets of Neacroft, Godwinscroft, Thorney Hill, Hinton, Beckley and Waterditch and is made up of a variety of country style homes, thatched properties and family housing. The village itself has a postal address in Dorset but relies on the services of Hampshire lying on the cusp of both counties. The area is sought after for the well reputed local Junior School and village lifestyle. It is a well supported community with a village hall, football and cricket ground and local village shops which include a medical centre and veterinary practice. There is also a substantial sized convenience store, Post Office, Butchers and Bakers within the village shop parade and several rustic style country pubs are within walking distance. Access to forest walks and cycle rides is on the doorstep and the forest village of Burley within a short drive.
