Description
Tucked away at the end of a private road, secured by gated access, and nestled beside a stunning nature reserve, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare combination of peaceful seclusion and effortless connectivity. Surrounded by nature and overlooking mature woodland, this home is a dream for anyone seeking serenity, space, and scenic beauty - all within easy reach of local amenities.
Approached via a gated entrance, the home unfolds into a spacious and versatile layout, thoughtfully designed with an “upside-down” configuration to take full advantage of the spectacular woodland backdrop.
This property has been a much-loved family home for many years, and it shows in its warm, practical design. It works exceptionally well as it is, but also offers huge potential to reconfigure and put your own stamp on it, making it ideal for growing families, multigenerational living, or anyone seeking a peaceful retreat with flexible options.
On the ground floor, a generous entrance porch leads into a welcoming hallway with access to a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room, a separate dining room, and two good-sized bedrooms, along with a home office or potential fourth bedroom and a convenient downstairs cloakroom.
The standout feature on this level is undoubtedly the sunroom, positioned at the rear and with over-sized windows to showcase peaceful views over the beautifully maintained garden - the perfect spot for relaxing all year round.
The south-west facing garden is a true outdoor haven, featuring a choice of seating areas, a decked terrace for entertaining, and an array of outbuildings including a detached home office, greenhouse, sheds, and additional storage areas - ideal for working from home or pursuing hobbies.
Upstairs, you’re welcomed by the elegantly redecorated master bedroom, complete with fitted wardrobes, and a luxurious family bathroom featuring a freestanding clawfoot bath and separate shower cubicle.
The real showstopper is the large, triple-aspect lounge, which floods with natural light throughout the day and features a cosy wood-burning stove. Double doors open onto a superb balcony - a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee among the birdsong or take in glorious sunsets over the nature reserve in the evening.
Located just a short stroll from Swanwick Lakes Nature Reserve, where lakes, wildlife, and woodland walks await, the property is in catchment for Sarisbury Infant & Junior schools and Brookfield secondary school and is within easy reach of the River Hamble, local marinas, cafés, and waterside pubs, and just a short drive or walk to Whiteley Shopping Centre with its array of shops and restaurants.
This is more than just a house - it’s a lifestyle. Offering space, privacy, and nature on your doorstep, yet remaining connected to all essential amenities, this is a rare opportunity not to be missed.
