The Accommodation - Approach & Frontage
Set back behind a base-level timber fence, the property offers a hardstanding driveway to the side with a timber-covered carport complete with lighting. A traditional wooden front door leads into the home.

Lounge - A welcoming room full of charm, featuring a smooth ceiling with a centralised character beam, wall lighting, and a cosy open fireplace with wood burner, stone hearth and wooden mantle, enhanced with subtle concealed lighting. A sash window to the front aspect provides natural light, while a door leads through to the inner hall.

Inner Hall - Character continues with a low ceiling, exposed beams and concealed LED lighting. There is an electric radiator, fitted carpet, and stairs rising to the first floor with a useful recess beneath. Doors provide access to the kitchen at the rear and the shower room to the side.

Shower Room - Recently refitted, the shower room offers a modern yet stylish finish, complete with concealed LED lighting, wall lighting, a wash basin with LED-lit vanity mirror, low level WC, and a walk-in tiled shower with glass screen and mixer shower. A side window offers natural light and ventilation.

Kitchen - Positioned at the rear, the kitchen enjoys a garden outlook and blends modern practicality with traditional finishes. Features include engineered wooden laminate flooring, solid Oak work surfaces with base and eye-level units, a ceramic Belfast sink, and integrated electric hob and oven. Space and plumbing are provided for a washing machine, slim dishwasher and under-counter fridge. Downlights to the ceiling add a contemporary touch, while a window and wooden door open to the rear garden.

First Floor - The first floor presents two bedrooms. The main double bedroom sits to the front, offering a sash window, loft access, wall lighting, carpet flooring, and electric radiator. Adjacent is a cosy single bedroom with a sloped ceiling, perfectly suited as a nursery, children’s room, or a quiet, creative study space.

Outside - Rear Garden - The rear garden offers a delightful, landscaped outlook backing onto woodland. A patio terrace steps up to a main lawn area, enclosed by timber fencing to one side and natural woodland to the other, creating a tranquil and private setting. Pathway access leads to the rear pedestrian door of the carport. Additional features include an outside tap and courtesy lighting.

Workshop / Outbuilding - At the rear lies a versatile brick-built workshop with power, lighting, and double wooden doors, as well as windows to all aspects. This adaptable space is ideal as a workshop, home office, gym, playroom, or garden room/entertaining space.

Location - Eling is a much sought-after area, steeped in heritage and surrounded by natural beauty. Set along a quiet country lane, the cottage enjoys a picturesque outlook over woodland to the rear, yet remains within easy reach of local shops, schools, and amenities. Eling Tide Mill, waterfront walks, and Totton town centre are all nearby, while excellent road and rail links provide convenient access to Southampton and the New Forest.
