Southampton Road, Cadnam, Southampton, Hampshire

Fairview Cottage is a delightful period property, set in a desirable position in the village of Cadnam, surrounded by beautiful New Forest countryside. Originally forming part of the Warrens Estate and dating from 1903, the cottage was subject to a recent complete renovation, installing stylish fittings and high-spec, energy-efficient measures, while complementing the original character and charm of the home.

On the ground floor, comfortable reception rooms combine with a social kitchen and breakfast room in a semi open-plan layout, while a separate family room provides peaceful space in which to relax, with its French doors and adjoining shower room (making it ideal for use as a guest bedroom). Towards the front, the sitting room features a restored fireplace fitted with an electric logburner, while the dining room has a brick-built fireplace with a reclaimed oak lintel. The airy kitchen and breakfast room opens to the rear gardens via French doors, has bespoke fitted units and a central island, 20mm Polaris Marble Quartz worktops and premium integrated appliances, including a Neff hob and dishwasher and a Lamona fridge-freezer and extractor. A hidden bookshelf door connects the breakfast area to the family room. The utility room provides further built-in storage, as well as integrated laundry appliances and underfloor heating.

The first floor provides three beautifully presented double bedrooms, each of which has built-in storage. Upstairs, there is also a family bathroom with a luxury, modern suite, featuring a bathtub, a separate walk-in rainfall shower, a touchscreen LED mirror and an Addvent extractor fan. Contemporary fittings and technological features include underfloor heating to the dining room and kitchen, premium sash-style windows, a complete refit of all plumbing, a full rewire, exterior sensor lights, a floodlit Ring camera and external power sockets.

Outside there is extensive off-road parking for up to seven vehicles, plus an integrated garage with electronic roller door system. The beautifully landscaped gardens include a limestone patio, an area of lawn, border beds, a tool shed and a detached garden building, which is ideal for use as a home gym or office.
