Description
Offered for sale for the first time in over 35 years and the incentive of No Onward Chain, Windmill represents an exceptional blend of potential, space, seclusion, and character. Spanning over 6,700 sq ft of versatile internal accommodation, Windmill features 6 spacious bedrooms, large office approached externally, 7 stables, a recently resurfaced tennis court, and a range of outbuildings including a chalet with electricity and plumbing and a tree house with electricity.
Internal Accommodation:
Upon entering, you are welcomed into a generous hallway that connects seamlessly to the principal rooms. The impressive, triple-aspect drawing room forms the heart of the home, where natural light floods in from every angle. A charming living room opens into a bright garden room, with French doors leading out to the extensive grounds. The well-appointed kitchen with the benefit of a gas Aga, is complemented by a series of practical utility and boot rooms, ideal for country living, along with a convenient downstairs W/C.
Upstairs, the accommodation offers six principal bedrooms, four bathrooms, and abundant storage throughout. The magnificent master suite is a true retreat, featuring his-and-hers walk-in wardrobes, a luxurious en suite, and sweeping triple-aspect windows that frame the views.
Home Office / Multi Use Room / Seventh Bedroom Potential:
A spacious office suite positioned above the double garage offers excellent versatility, whether as a dedicated home office, therapy room, or potential self-contained annex. Thoughtfully designed by the current owners, it benefits from its own external staircase and private entrance, making it particularly well-suited for those running a business from home. This clever layout ensures visiting clients remain separate from the privacy of the main residence.
Equestrian Facilities:
Windmill is well-equipped with comprehensive equestrian amenities, including a stable yard with seven stables, two tack rooms, storage facilities for feed and veterinary supplies and four arces of well fenced fields. The property also features paddock areas and well fenced fields that are well drained, perfect for winter tacking. This property also has Forest Rights, enabling the occupier to graze livestock on the Forest.
Chalet:
Stashed away in its own private seclusion, tucked behind a collection of vibrant bushes and shrubs and accessed through an archway gate sits a large Log cabin / chalet. Formally the pool room with power, light and shower and changing facilities, this space could be converted back into a pool room or a home Gym/function room which has electrical and plumbing facilities. The Chalet also is promoted by having its own “private” garden to the left-hand side.
Tree House:
A wooden constructed treehouse sits within the grounds of the property with access to light and power. Perfect for children playing or even visiting friends / family staying over too.
Gardens and Grounds:
The property is surrounded by extensive wraparound gardens, offering a mix of formal and informal spaces, including paddocks and gardens for self-sufficient living. A brick-walled vegetable garden and greenhouse encourages self-sufficient living. An enclosed chicken run is also a benefit.

Situated in the prestigious Sandy Down area, Windmill is within the heart of the New Forest National Park. The Victorian market town of Lymington is just over 3 miles away, offering a range of shops, pubs, takeaway outlets, sailing clubs, and a ferry route to the Isle of Wight. Brockenhurst, located just 3 miles away, offers access to a mainline station with direct trains to London Waterloo, alongside a charming countryside high street with local butchers, bakeries, and one of England’s top 100 golf courses. There is also Brockenhurst Further Education College close by.
