Beautifully presented detached family home, situated in the sought-after village of Alderholt.

This home is a 12-year-old detached family house that has been meticulously maintained by the current owners. Recently redecorated throughout, this home benefits from multi-zone underfloor heating downstairs, radiators upstairs and double glazing throughout, making it a calm and quiet haven tucked away from the road.

The property features a large family room, incorporating the well fitted kitchen with a breakfast bar to one side. The kitchen is a cook’s delight, with units that were installed only 5 years ago, extensive worktops, a 5-burner gas hob, American double fridge and a built-in wine cooler.

The other side of the family room are sitting and dining areas, with French doors and windows overlooking the south westerly garden. This is a beautifully light and airy room, and the woodburning fire and underfloor heating ensure that this is a cosy and welcoming space.  

Beyond the kitchen is a conservatory style porch at the back door leading to a small courtyard, with a path to the rear garden and the front of the house.    

The 4th bedroom (currently used as a TV sitting room) also opens through French doors to the garden. This room would also make a fabulous study.

Also on the ground floor is a welcoming hallway, a cloakroom, and utility / storage cupboard, where the gas central heating and hot water boiler is housed.

On the first floor, a large landing leads to the double aspect master bedroom, with an ensuite shower room.

Two further double bedrooms, one with built-in wardrobes. A well fitted bathroom, P-shaped bath with shower, handbasin, WC and a built-in cupboard.

Outside, the south-west facing gardens are a delight. With plenty of outdoor patio space for the outdoor suite, and perfect for pleasant evenings and outdoor dining. With easy-care gardens, lawn and flower beds, there is a garden shed for storage and a potting shed. The secure garden gate leads directly onto an unadopted lane into the Cranborne woodland.

To the front of the property is a gravel driveway, with a carport and 2 allocated parking spaces.

Local facilities:

• Under ¼  mile (6 minutes walk) to the Co-op store in Alderholt.

• Under ¾  mile (20 minutes walk) to Alderholt Sports and Social Club, and Recreation Ground.

• About 15 minutes  walk to St James First School.

• Under 3 miles to Fordingbridge town centre shops and cafes.

• 5 miles to Verwood town centre and Morrisons supermarket.

• 7 miles to Ringwood town centre car park for Waitrose and Sainsbury’s.

• Ideally situated for superb country walks on the Cranborne Estate and in Ringwood Forest. There is direct access to Cranborne woodlands from the garden gate.

• 6 miles (15 minutes’ drive) into the heart of beautiful open countryside in the New Forest.

Note:

Antler Homes are currently developing the site adjacent to the property. However, as the site is at a lower level than the house, it is not visible except from the upper bedroom windows. Leylandii trees along the border will, in time, further restrict visibility. Double-glazing means that there is minimal site noise in the house. Working hours are restricted to weekdays from 8.00am to 5.00pm, with no building or site operations permitted outside those hours. The current owners are on good terms with the site and project managers, and the project is due to complete by the end of 2026.
