Positioned on an extremely popular leafy road the house retains a rural feel with distinct privacy and space from its neighbours while also enjoying convenient access to the centre of the village with its vibrant shops, wine bars and restaurants. There is a woodland footpath beginning just yards from the property which provides a charming peaceful walk direct to the centre of the village just two thirds of a mile away.

Milford on Sea is a thriving and lively village with a very well regarded primary school, glorious swimming beaches and a wide range of restaurants, pubs, cafes, bars and boutique shops. There is sailing, kayaking and paddleboarding at nearby Keyhaven with a wider range of sailing clubs and marinas in Lymington. The beautiful open spaces of the New Forest lie just to the north with a mainline railway station at New Milton (4 miles) with direct services to London Waterloo in under 2 hours.

An impressive grand vestibule sets the tone as it opens into a warm and welcoming entrance hallway, beautifully finished with herringbone oak flooring. Off the hallway, the elegant dual-aspect drawing room features an open fireplace with a striking stone surround and hearth, along with French doors leading to the west-facing terrace. Adjacent to this space is a cozy snug, also enjoying views over the delightful garden and centered around a charming fireplace. The formal dining room, with its front-facing aspect, boasts a period fireplace and offers a perfect setting for entertaining. The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen/family room, which opens onto the terrace through bi-fold doors. The kitchen is well-appointed with a range of fitted units, a butler-style sink, granite and timber worktops, an integrated gas-fired Aga, a four-ring gas hob, tiled flooring, and space for an American-style fridge/freezer. It flows seamlessly into a generous dining area, ideal for a large table and family gathering.

The family area has a feature high vaulted ceiling with floor to ceiling cathedral style double glazed windows overlooking the garden and recessed double sided wood burner. The study/office is off here with a concealed storage room adjacent to the spacious laundry/utility room with Butler style sink, a range of work surfaces, cupboard units, integrated double oven, space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer, space for tall fridge/freezer, and a wall mounted Worcester gas fired boiler. There is a second entrance hallway with double coats cupboard and a cloakroom.

Ascending the elegant staircase to the first-floor part-galleried landing gives access to five generously sized bedrooms. The master suite overlooks the garden and features a range of fitted furniture, including three double wardrobes, a dressing table, and a stylish ensuite shower room. The remaining four bedrooms are all spacious doubles, each equipped with fitted wardrobes. A contemporary family shower room and a separate family bathroom—highlighted by a striking copper bathtub complete the accommodation in this exceptional Georgian residence. Finally, there is an airing cupboard and loft access to the large roof space.

Double gates open onto a long gravel driveway leading to a turning circle and a single and tandem double garage with electric doors. From the driveway, there is access to a beautifully landscaped, private west-facing rear garden. An impressive elevated terrace extends from the rear of the home, accessible via both the sitting room and family room, offering serene views over the pond. Steps lead from the terrace down to the main lawn and a raised veranda that houses a charming garden cabin. The well-maintained grounds are adorned with vibrant planting, established shrubs, and flower borders, as well as a greenhouse and garden shed. The garden cabin offers a delightful space for alfresco dining and is equally suited as a home office, studio, or gym.
