Property Description

A truly exceptional position, within the New Forest National Park, wonderful, elevated forest views and a mature and established plot (approximately 0.4 acres), are just a few features of this impeccably presented, extended family home that has been meticulously maintained, improved and enjoyed by the current owners. Mark Beacon offers both spacious and flexible accommodation, with four well-proportioned double bedrooms, a modern family bathroom and Jack & Jill style shower room on the first floor. From all windows you can enjoy gorgeous, far-reaching views of the surrounding forest and just yards from Ibsley Common, an unspoiled area of the open New Forest. The ground floor lies host to a warm and welcoming reception hall, three versatile reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, utility room & shower room. The kitchen/breakfast room has an Aga cooker, warm travertine limestone flooring and a range of units and sink. A door then leads to a fantastic, comprehensively fitted extension to the kitchen/utility room. This incredibly useful room is fitted in a range of tasteful, Farrow & Ball hand painted units, incorporating a walk-in larder, concealed space for washing machine and further kitchen storage solutions. There is a continuation of the limestone flooring and a door to the ground floor shower room/wc. An open arch from the kitchen/breakfast area leads to a delightful, informal sitting/dining room with feature enamelled log burner. There are two further reception areas which enjoy a dual-aspect. The sitting room to the front with views over the forest and an open fire, the study/reading room to the rear, overlooking the gardens. This utterly charming and sympathetically extended home further benefits from oil fired central heating and period style ‘French Grey’ double glazed windows. Outside the grounds extend to around 0.4 acres with a cattle grid and gravelled drive to the rear that provides extensive parking/turning. This in turn leads to an oak-framed triple car-port and wood store with a huge amount of storage over. The car-port is attached to a beautiful oak-framed barn that has in the past been used as entertaining space with a log burner. In addition to these useful outbuildings is a stable block, comprising three stables and a loose box. Adjoining the property is an Indian sandstone paved terrace which wraps around the rear to the side, it can be accessed by doors from the kitchen/breakfast room and utility room. Steps lead to a well-tended lawn stocked flower/shrub beds and a timber summer house.
