3 Bed Terraced House For Sale

The Property

A charming three bedroom forest cottage set in the heart of the sought after New Forest village of Pilley. The property has been extended and lovingly refurbished to create a welcoming home with the perfect combination of old and new. This beautiful cottage may well appeal to downsizers wanting a manageable property or second home purchasers wishing to have a character house that allows for convenient use of both the forest and coast.

On entering the property there is an enclosed porch which in turn leads to the entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. The sitting room is of notable size and has a southerly aspect with a wonderful bay window enjoying views over the garden as well as double doors leading out to the sunny courtyard area. 

The dining room enjoys attractive views out to the garden and there are exposed ceiling timbers which create a warm and homely ambience. In addition, there is also a cloakroom adjacent to the dining room, for second home purchasers this room could prove ideal for use as a further double bedroom to accommodate guests. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of country style cream shaker base and wall units with wooden worktops and Belfast sink. There is an array of fitted appliances including a Bosch oven and electric hob, fridge/freezer as well as space and plumbing for a tumble dryer and washing machine. 

To the first floor a landing affords access to all the first floor rooms and conveniently for a property of this age the bathroom is positioned on this level. The spacious main bedroom with fitted storage overlooks the garden and has plentiful space for bedroom furniture. The second bedroom is light and airy, and a generous sized double. Bedroom three is adjacent to the bathroom which completes the first floor accommodation. 

Situation

The cottage lies in the centre of the popular forest village of Pilley with easy access to the village shop, post office and local Fleur De Lys Public house. Miles of open forest are on the doorstep and the Georgian market town of Lymington, with its river, marinas and yacht clubs, is situated approximately 3 miles south along with the attractive unspoilt coastline fronting The Solent. The manorial village of Beaulieu and its associated pretty hamlet of Bucklers Hard are situated on the Beaulieu River about 5 miles to the north east across the open forest.
