Fordingbridge, SP6 2LR

Originally built in the 1970s and extensively refurbished and extended by the current owners, the property has been transformed into a stylish and contemporary split-level home extending to approximately 3,500 sq ft, thoughtfully designed to maximise natural light, views and the superb southerly aspect. The principal living spaces are arranged to take full advantage of the outlook across the gardens, swimming pool terrace and the forest beyond, creating a wonderful sense of space and calm throughout. A welcoming entrance hall with rustic cobbled flooring leads through to the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, which forms the true heart of the home. Vaulted ceilings enhance the feeling of light and scale, while twin glazed doors open directly onto the terrace and pool area, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The bespoke shaker-style kitchen is beautifully appointed with quartz worktops, a generous island and a four-oven electric Aga. The accommodation is notably flexible, providing five to six bedrooms arranged across two levels. The principal suite enjoys a peaceful southerly outlook over the garden towards the forest and benefits from its own balcony, dressing area and luxurious en-suite bathroom. The lower ground floor provides additional bedrooms and family bathroom facilities, with several rooms opening onto a lower terrace and garden, further enhancing the home’s strong connection to its natural surroundings. Outside, the property is approached via a cattle grid and electric wooden gates, opening to a generous pea-shingle driveway with ample parking and access to a double garage which has been partially converted and used a gym. The south-facing garden lies predominantly to the rear and offers a wonderful sense of privacy. A large entertaining terrace leads to the heated swimming pool and composite decking, perfectly positioned to enjoy the sun and the peaceful forest outlook. Beyond, the gardens gently slope away with lawns, mature planting and a variety of trees creating a beautifully natural setting. Within the grounds there is also a stable block with two boxes and tack room, offering potential for alternative uses subject to the necessary permissions. The stable block is currently in a poor state of repair and would require renovation. Broadband & Mobile: Please refer to the Ofcom website for availability and coverage.
