Sky End Lane, Hordle, Lymington, SO41

Harbour House is a spacious family home sitting in grounds of approx one acre and close to both open countryside and local amenities. The current owners had the house modernised to their own specifications to provide four bedrooms, three bathrooms and three reception rooms. The attention to detail along with the modern and contemporary finish have created an impressive family home hidden behind electric gates and surrounded by paddock land with a vaulted master suite, spacious kitchen/family room, two further reception rooms, extensive gravelled parking, garage and a wonderful south facing garden.
