Quay Road, Lymington, Hampshire, SO41

An impressive Grade II listed cottage with views across the Lymington river.

Description

Situated on the Quayside in the heart of Lymington, this impressive Grade II Listed home enjoys wonderful views across the Lymington river. While the property now requires some modernisation, it offers generous and highly flexible accommodation arranged over three floors.

The front door opens into a short hallway, passing the study and leading to a central reception hall, beyond which lies the dining room and kitchen. From here there is access to, and views over, the private courtyard garden, along with a utility room that connects to the integrated garage and the north wing. The north wing provides a guest bedroom with an en suite shower room.

A staircase from the reception hall leads to the principal reception rooms on the first floor. This floor features a partially panelled music room with a window seat, a sitting room with an additional window seat and open fireplace, and a library. These elegant, light-filled rooms enjoy views over the Lymington river. Also on the first floor, at the rear of the property, is the principal bedroom suite overlooking the courtyard garden. The en suite bathroom incorporates a discreet door leading to a hidden room and storeroom, which could readily be converted into a walk-in dressing area. A further door at the far end provides access back on to the first-floor landing.

The second floor accommodates two further bedrooms, served by a bathroom. The staircase is naturally illuminated by a cupola above, creating a bright and welcoming ascent.

OUTSIDE
Externally, the property benefits from an attractive and low maintenance private courtyard garden, easily accessed from the kitchen and dining area. Featuring raised beds with mature planting, it provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining.
