Beaulieu is one of the area's most sought after villages with freehold properties seldom becoming available. It's picturesque properties and bustling high street provide an enchanting backdrop to the shops, pub and restaurants which give the village its appeal. The Boathouse sits on the edge of the village and is surrounded by the open, unspoilt green spaces of the Beaulieu Estate which has remained under the stewardship of the Montagu family for centuries. 

The village is surrounded by the New Forest National Park with unrivalled walks, riding and cycling on the doorstep. Communications from Beaulieu are strong with mainline railway stations at both Brockenhurst (6 miles) and Southampton Airport Parkway (16 miles) offering direct services to London Waterloo in approximately 1h 45m and 1h 15m respectively. The M271 lies 12 miles to the north and provides connections to the motorway network and London.

Comprehensively renovated and updated by the current owners, The Boathouse offers an exceptional sense of space thanks to its secluded location, long drive and generous mature garden. The house has been brought up to date and decorated beautifully by the current owners with accommodation comprising a generous kitchen breakfast room with fitted kitchen and dining area with views over, and direct access to, the garden. The large triple aspect sitting room with French windows to the outside and cornice LED lighting provides ample space to relax and there is also a separate dining room which, given the space for dining in the kitchen, could easily be used as a study or second sitting room. The main bedroom is on the ground floor and is extremely spacious with French windows opening onto a charming terrace overlooking the garden. There is beautifully finished en suite shower room as well as a separate dressing room providing ample hanging and shelved storage. A wc completes the ground floor accommodation. 

Stairs, lit at low level by attractive lighting provide access to the first floor where there are three bedrooms, currently arranged as two doubles and a twin room. All these bedrooms feature large windows overlooking the gardens and grounds as well as having extensive eaves storage. These bedrooms are served by a very nicely presented family bathroom.

The house is approached through double electric gates beyond which lie a gravel drive, flanked by mature hedges, leading to a turning and parking circle in the centre of which is a deeply impressive Oak tree. To the front of the house is a detached home office of modern construction which is particularly well proportioned with ample space for two or three people to work comfortably.

The majority of the garden lies to the rear of the house and is mostly laid to lawn with landscaped borders containing mature plants and shrubs. There is a large storage shed and a pedestrian gate leading onto the Beaulieu Estate which provides, with the permission of the estate, excellent walks to the village and neighbouring countryside without immediately accessing a road.
