Description:A striking contemporary home with outbuildings extending to over 3,600 square feet positioned along a quiet country lane and standing in formal gardens, light woodland and paddock in all approaching 5 acres.
The original single-storey dwelling has been creatively enlarged and extended by our clients following a major renovation program which has produced a wonderfully light and spacious home and which is ideal for equestrian enthusiasts given the potential to create stabling and complementary facilities or for establishing a smallholding, all subject of course to any necessary planning requirements.
In addition, there is an outside cabin with shower, WC and sauna ideal as a leisure room, office for home working, or for providing an additional income stream by using for Airbnb etc. Surrounded by fields and farmland, this delightfully situated home must be seen for its tranquil location and generous accommodation to be fully appreciated.
Location:
West Wellow is a delightful and highly sought after village in the Test Valley bordering the New Forest National Park. The property is situated close to the centre of the village which offers a local convenience store, hardware store, hairdressers, butchers, newsagents, pharmacy and popular primary school. The property falls within the catchment area for the ever-popular Mountbatten School in Romsey and is also well placed for access to Salisbury, Southampton, Winchester and London via the nearby M3/M27 network.
Accommodation:
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a large reception hall which sits in the centre of the property, the first floor and all ground floor rooms radiating from this point. To the left is a spectacular kitchen/family room, beautifully appointed with a stylish range of contemporary units and integrated appliances and enjoying scenic views of the gardens and paddock.
To the right is a triple-aspect sitting room with wood burner whilst the remaining ground floor accommodation comprises useful utility room, and three additional reception rooms, one of which could be used as a ground floor bedroom if required with use of the well-appointed shower room.
The galleried first floor landing overlooks the entrance hall and enjoys views to the front aspect through the vaulted cathedral-style window. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room and large dressing room, and double doors opening onto the balcony running across the rear of the property from which there are panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. There are three additional double bedrooms one of which has an en-suite shower room with the other two sharing the stunning family bathroom.
Outside:
The property is approached through double gates opening onto a driveway with parking for at least four to five cars in addition to an oak-framed double carport. To the side and rear are formal gardens of around one-third of an acre adjoining which is a pretty, lightly wooded area of just under one acre adorned with bluebells in the Spring and through which is access onto the secondary drive off Scallows Lane. This drive leads to further parking for additional cars, horse boxes, tractors, trailers etc. with an area cleared for a large storage barn and other ancillary buildings e.g. holiday lodge etc. subject to the usual permissions.
