North View – A Historic Edwardian Home on Prestigious Holly Hill Lane

North View is a truly special detached Edwardian home, built in 1906 and remaining in the same family for 120 years. Rarely does a property come to the market with such a remarkable history, offering a unique opportunity to become the next custodian of this much-loved family home.

Situated on Holly Hill Lane, one of Sarisbury Green’s most sought-after residential roads, North View combines genuine period character with exciting potential for transformation. The road is renowned for its substantial detached homes, many of which have been thoughtfully extended and significantly improved over the years, creating a strong precedent for those looking to develop and enhance their own exceptional family home.

The property retains a wealth of original character, including two front reception rooms with attractive bay windows and fireplaces, original sash windows and many of the original internal doors. The welcoming entrance hall leads to the principal ground floor rooms, with the kitchen also benefiting from a useful larder.

Upstairs are four generous double bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is also exciting potential, subject to the necessary planning consents, to create a further room within the roof space, with a staircase potentially rising from the existing landing. Importantly, this could be achieved without compromising the existing four-bedroom accommodation.

Perhaps the most exciting aspect is the planning permission already granted for a substantial 10-metre-wide rear extension. Designed to incorporate an orangery-style lantern roof, the extension provides an exceptional opportunity to create a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and family living space, with direct access into the south-facing garden.

The grounds are equally appealing. The property enjoys a private south-facing rear garden, while the front provides lawned gardens and off-road parking to the front or side.

Holly Hill Lane also benefits from direct access to Holly Hill Woodland Park, extending to approximately 36 hectares, with picturesque woodland walks around ponds and lakes towards the River Hamble. The village green, local shops and community facilities are all close by.

The River Hamble is also within easy reach, making this a particularly appealing location for sailing enthusiasts and those who enjoy walking and outdoor pursuits.

Despite the tranquil setting, transport links are excellent, with Swanwick railway station less than two miles away, the A27 approximately half a mile away and the M27 readily accessible via Bursledon.

North View represents a rare opportunity to acquire a historic Edwardian family home with an extraordinary 120-year family history, exceptional period features and planning permission for a substantial rear extension. With the potential to create a spectacular modern family home while retaining the character and heritage of the original property, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
