3 bed country house for sale

Woodgreen, Fordingbridge, Hampshire SP6

An extended 3-double bedroom detached house in a plot of approximately 0.38 acre in the heart of the sought-after New Forest village of Woodgreen. No onward chain.

Amberleigh House is a modern, detached house occupying a central position in the highly desirable village of Woodgreen, within close walking distance of the community shop, public house and the glorious open acres of Woodgreen Common and the surrounding New Forest. In more recent years the house has been extended and improved to offer a welcoming reception hall and practical, well laid out accommodation that achieves a good balance between the ground floor living rooms and three generous bedrooms on the first floor. The house sits to the front of a generous south-westerly plot that extends to just over 1/3 acre and adjoins neighbouring water meadow, a lovely rural outlook from the both the garden and house itself. There is ample driveway parking, and the single garage has been extended and modified to now include a rear office/studio with a separate shower room, ideal for those seeking work-from-home office space. The house is being sold with the advantage of no forward chain.

Woodgreen is a thriving village on the North West boundary of the New Forest National Park, with much of the village itself and immediate surrounding area designated as a Conservation Area. The community is well served by a number of facilities, including a community run Post Office/shop, public house, village hall and church, all within close walking distance. Nearby Woodgreen Common is home not only to the local cricket team but also to a number of the ponies, cattle and donkeys that freely roam the New Forest. The forest offers many miles of unspoiled heath, moor and woodland, making an ideal location for those who enjoy walking, riding, cycling and other outdoor pursuits. The Avonside town of Fordingbridge and the Cathedral City of Salisbury between them have comprehensive facilities for all day to day needs and both are within 10 miles.

Communications in the area are excellent. The B3078 from Godshill supplies a convenient link with the M27 at Junction 1 for Southampton, the M3 and London beyond. The A338 passes through the Avon Valley and provides commutable access to Salisbury, Bournemouth and Poole. There are international airports at Southampton and Bournemouth and mainline stations to London (Waterloo) from Salisbury and Southampton Parkway.

A 5 - bar wooden gate opens to the driveway and a parking area sufficient for 2 - 3 cars to the front of the house. The driveway continues to the side of the house and leads to a single garage with up and over doors, power and light attached. Adjoining the garage is a useful home office with separate shower room.

The garden is located predominantly to the rear of the house and access can be gained from the Conservatory to an initial area of lawn with an adjacent flagstone patio that enjoys full advantage of the south-westerly aspect. The garden level drops down to a larger area of lawn with mature trees, including willow, that continues away from the house in linear fashion and again enjoys an open, sunny south-westerly orientation.
