Fordingbridge, SP6 1EH

Occupying a generous corner plot, this impressive four/five-bedroom period home has been beautifully modernised and extended by the current owners. The result is a stylish and highly practical family home that balances contemporary open-plan living with the warmth and character of the original property. The house is approached across a spacious stone driveway, providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles. At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, cleverly arranged around a central chimney breast with a wood-burning stove. The bright and spacious living area features powder-coated aluminium bi-folding doors and a glazed lantern roof, flooding the room with natural light and creating a wonderful connection with the garden. This space flows naturally into the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of cupboards and generous worktop space, together with a range-style gas cooker and integrated dishwasher. Rustic oak flooring adds further warmth and character. Adjacent to the kitchen is an attractive formal sitting room with a front-facing bay window and a second wood-burning stove, creating a cosy atmosphere during the winter months. Across the entrance hall is a versatile third reception room, currently arranged to incorporate a useful utility area with a sink, WC and additional storage. This room could equally be used as a fifth bedroom, home office, playroom or snug, depending on the needs of the new owners. On the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms and a family shower room. The principal bedroom and second bedroom both feature attractive front-facing bay windows and period fireplaces, while the third bedroom overlooks the rear garden and comfortably accommodates a double bed. The family shower room is fitted with a shower enclosure, WC, wash basin and heated towel rail. Outside, the generous and level rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, providing plenty of space for children, entertaining and outdoor living. A substantial summer house offers further flexibility, while a separate garden store provides useful storage. There is also secondary vehicular access to the garden, allowing for additional parking if required. The property enjoys a highly convenient position approximately 0.2 miles from the centre of Fordingbridge, placing its shops, cafés and everyday amenities within easy walking distance.
