DESCRIPTION AND CONSTRUCTION:
Forest Edge was originally built as a detached family house in the 1950’s. However, more recently, the present owners have cleverly re-designed and substantially enhanced the accommodation for multi-generational purposes. The size of both properties offers exceptional accommodation with versatile and bespoke design features both with independent heating, separately accessed and joined internally. Properties of this nature are rare to the local housing market offering substantial primary and secondary accommodation for two families all within mature gardens totalling 0.283 of an acre.

In our opinion, to appreciate the size and quality of the accommodation, an internal viewing is strongly recommended.

SITUATION:
Forest Edge is set on an elevated plot totalling 0.283 of an acre on the eastern side of the A338 Ringwood to Salisbury Road. The property is within close proximity to a local Budgens convenience store and within a mile of Ringwood centre which offers a weekly street market in addition to comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities. The A31 and A338 provide links to Bournemouth 12 miles, Southampton 16 miles and Salisbury 18 miles. The open New Forest and access to the Avon Valley Footpath are within close proximity of the property.

DIRECTIONAL NOTE:
From the main Ringwood roundabout, adjacent to the town centre car parks, proceed in a northerly direction under the dual-carriageway underpass onto the A338 Ringwood to Salisbury Road. Proceed for approximately half a mile, passing the entrance to Hurst Road and after another 700 yards the entrance to Forest Edge will be located on the right hand side, prior to the entrance to Headlands Business Park and petrol garage.

OUTSIDE:
The property is delightfully set within landscaped gardens totalling 0.283 of an acre. The property is approached from Salisbury Road across a shared driveway for just two properties which in turn gives access to a private driveway located on the western side of the property, where there is a substantial area of off road parking on both gravel and brick paviour areas.

The front garden has been well screened with evergreen laurel hedging on the western, northern and southern boundaries. This area of front garden measures 90’ (27.42m) x an average width of 48’ (14.6m).

Double opening wrought iron gates give access across a concrete driveway on the northern side of the property which in turn leads to a SUBSTANTIAL GARAGE/ WORKSHOP: 32’10” (10m) x 10’6” (3.20m). Power, light, multiple power pints, sink and side door leading onto patio. To the rear of the garage an area has been created as a UTILITY ROOM: With wall to wall, roll top laminate work surface with inset single bowl, single drainer stainless steel sink unit with h & c mixer. Twin recesses for washing machine & tumble dryer. Plumbing available. Electric wall mounted panel heater. Space for additional fridge/freezers.

The rear garden has been delightfully landscaped and enjoys a depth of 85’ (25.90m) and an average width of 48’ (14.62m). A substantial paved path leads along the northern side of the property between the garage and the adjoining ground floor annexe, which in turn leads to the primary area of rear garden. There are two shaped areas of lawn bounded by an extensive array of colourful flowering shrubs, trees and bushes.

A seating area, directly to the rear of the garage complex, has been created with a timber deck. Paved paths continue along the southern edge of the gardens, which in turn give access to a timber LODGE/SUMMER HOUSE: 9’8” (2.95m) x 11’6” (3.52m) set within the south eastern corner of the garden. Double opening glazed doors and windows. Timber vaulted ceiling. Timber panelled walls and floor. Sink. Light, power and external open fronted alfresco dining area on a timber deck adjacent to the paths and patio, which lead to the rear of the garden. The chalet has external power and water.

To the rear of the chalet there is a timber GARDEN STORE. The pathway continues to the north eastern corner of the garden, where there is an area which accommodates a small above ground pool (not included within the sale). This area is well screened by an additional timber GARDEN STORE: 12’ x 6’. Both the garden stores have power & lighting. The boundaries of the garden are clearly defined with close boarded wooden fencing on the northern and southern side. The garden boundary on the eastern side backs directly onto area of protected woodland.

There are a bank of 10 solar panels on the southern roof of the annexe which contributes significantly to the economic cost of domestic electricity for both properties.
