Cowley Road, Lymington, Hampshire, SO41

An impressive modern home, completed within the past two years, offering thoughtfully designed and versatile accommodation extending to over 2,500 sq ft. The main house provides four bedrooms, each with its own en suite, together with a substantial studio set within the rear garden. This additional space lends itself to a variety of uses, including working from home, accommodation for a dependant relative, or potential income generation.

A covered entrance leads into a welcoming hallway featuring a distinctive tiled floor and staircase rising to the first floor. The sitting room is a comfortable retreat with windows to the front aspect and a fireplace with wood-burning stove. On the opposite side of the hall is bedroom four, which could equally serve as a study, with access to a nearby shower room and a useful storage cupboard.

Glazed double doors open into an outstanding open-plan kitchen/dining/family room. This generous space comfortably accommodates seating and a large dining table, with a handcrafted kitchen fitted with bespoke wooden cabinetry, quartz work surfaces, integrated appliances and space for freestanding items including a range cooker and American-style fridge/freezer. Natural light pours in from a double-height ceiling with floor-to-ceiling glazing, rooflights and two sets of French doors opening onto the rear garden, providing views towards a wooded copse beyond. A utility room is accessed from here, offering space for laundry appliances and a door to the outside. Under floor heating runs throughout the ground floor.

Upstairs, the landing is a notable feature, incorporating a glazed floor panel overlooking the hall below, while a minstrel’s gallery at the far end looks down over the dining area, enhancing the sense of volume created by the high-level windows.

The principal suite comprises a spacious bedroom with an outlook over the garden, leading through to a dressing room and on to an en suite bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath, twin basins and a separate shower. Bedroom two is a well-proportioned double room with its own en suite shower room, as is bedroom three, which also enjoys views over the garden.

Outside, to the front of the property, a gravel driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles, with space for a boat, motorhome or caravan. An open-fronted garage to one side leads through to a further area with a substantial storage shed.

The rear garden is of a generous size and is laid predominantly to lawn, extending down to a slightly sunken section where a purpose-built, fully insulated studio with under floor heating is situated. This versatile space incorporates a kitchen area to one end, bi-fold doors, a walk-in store housing the boiler and a shower room.

Beyond the studio, there is a further section of garden with a timber summer house and the whole plot enjoys a backdrop adjoining a wooded copse.

The house enjoys the remaining approx 9 years of a 10 year builder's warranty. Solar panels are installed which benefit from a feed-in tariff and the property also benefits from a heat recovery unit.

Lymington offers an extensive range of shops from large household names such as M&S Simply Food and WH Smiths to independent boutiques, coffee shops, restaurants, pubs and tea rooms. There are also a variety of hair salons and beauticians to choose from. Saturdays provide a vibrant atmosphere throughout the town as the market attracts many locals and visitors from throughout the forest and beyond. Lymington is the ideal location for those who enjoy water sports with two marinas and sailing clubs holding access to the Solent and a short drive away from beaches.
