Exceptional detached residence positioned on the fringes of West Wellow.
Constructed in the early 1990’s, this extensive family home enjoys a quiet position yet is in easy reach for commuter access and excellent local schooling. A hardwood door opens into the porch which provides an attractive entrance to the house via a panel glazed door. The property is centred around the stunning light and spacious open plan living accommodation with beautiful vaulted ceilings and impressive views across the south facing grounds. The fabulous fitted kitchen/breakfast room offers an array of wall base and drawer units, plenty of worksurface space and a range of integrated appliances including a Rayburn with brick surround, ceramic hob with extractor, double oven and dishwasher. The room further benefits from a freestanding central island providing extra storage and preparation space as well as a breakfast bar for informal dining. The kitchen/breakfast is supplemented by a useful utility room with further storage and plumbing for appliances, which then flows into the charming and comfortable dining/family room, a perfect place to relax and entertain with family and friends and has a wealth of exposed beams and a feature brick fireplace with a freestanding woodburning stove. A door opens onto the patio, perfect for summer socialising with a further door leading through to the useful adjoining study. The formal dual aspect sitting room has doors opening to the garden and a central feature brick fireplace with inset woodburning stove. A lovely snug and a guest cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor continues to impress, with three good sized bedrooms, the good sized principal bedroom benefitting from ample wardrobe space, an en-suite bathroom with twin wash hand basins and a large picture window overlooking the grounds. The two remaining bedrooms feature fitted wardrobes and are served by the family bathroom which also has a shower cubicle.
An inner passageway on the ground floor accesses the substantial double garage and a separate staircase leads to the exceptional office which enjoys a pleasant triple aspect. An adjacent bedroom is served by an en-suite shower room creating an ideal guest suite.
The property is approached from the tranquil country lane via a wide gravelled driveway with parking and turning for several vehicles. Low level walling and raised established borders provide a high degree of privacy and a five bar gate allows vehicular access to the paddock. The grounds extend to one acre and are wholly private screened by mature trees and hedgerow. South facing, the extensive patio provides an ideal relaxation or entertainment venue overlooking the paddock which is a post and railed enclosure. A neat lawn and pathway lead to the stable block and yard with adjoining shed and log store. The brick built stables are currently utilised as a gym and storage area having power, lighting and water.

The property is situated within the very popular village of West Wellow, on the fringes of the New Forest National Park providing miles of unrestricted countryside and common land. Enjoying a friendly community spirit, the village benefits from a host of amenities including a pharmacy, supermarket, butchers, hairdressers, public house and ample recreational facilities. The property is situated on a popular leafy road in West Wellow with its convenient commute via the nearby A36 offering bus links to the cathedral city of Salisbury, Romsey market town and the commercial centre of Southampton, allowing easy access to popular schools in either city, such as Southampton’s King Edward VI and Salisbury’s widely renowned grammar schools.
