Property Description
Summary
An exceptional opportunity to make this beautifully presented New Forest cottage your own, a residence steeped in history and thoughtfully modernised while preserving its original charm, dating back to the late 1700s. Suters Cottage, gracing one of the most idyllic forest locations, offers sweeping views of the surrounding countryside and is set amidst approximately 8.5 acres of magnificent grounds and gardens.
As you step inside the property through the entrance hall, you'll find access to all the principal rooms on the ground floor, with a staircase leading up to the first floor. To the left, the sitting room beckons, a generously sized space with abundant character, exposed beams, and a captivating fireplace.
Adjacent to this is the garden room, offering access to the rear garden through French doors. Continuing on, you can access the dining room, which flows seamlessly into the kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped with both high and low-level units, with slate flooring adding a touch of rustic elegance.
On this level, there's also a ground floor bedroom, which could alternatively serve as a study or an additional reception room, and a convenient downstairs cloakroom. Ascending to the first floor, you'll discover three more generously proportioned double bedrooms, each offering splendid views of the surrounding countryside. A family bathroom and a separate shower room complete this level. Additionally, the property includes a detached one/two bedroom annexe. This versatile space can serve as a guest cottage, an artist's studio, or a private retreat, offering various possibilities to suit your needs.
The property is approached via a sweeping private driveway, featuring a five-bar timber gate that opens to a courtyard, providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The property boasts a range of outbuildings, including a carport. Equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the stable yard with three loose boxes and direct forest access for endless riding adventures. The grounds and gardens have been thoughtfully divided into individual paddocks with post and rail fencing, two of which include a field shelter. The gardens also feature a natural pond and a variety of mature trees and shrubs.
