The property is located on the quiet High Street of the sought-after village of Woodgreen located in the uppermost Western corner of the New Forest, within the Western Escarpement Conservation Area of the New Forest National Park. The village has a thriving community centred around a popular public house, a well-stocked community run shop and picturesque village Common, which is home to the village cricket team as well as the ponies, donkeys and cattle that freely roam the forest, all of which is within walking distance. The neighbouring village of Hale has a reputable primary school and the Avonside town of Fordingbridge (about 4 miles) has a range of services sufficient to cater for most everyday needs, including independent shops, cafes, excellent primary and secondary schools, sports and medical facilities.
For those seeking a balance between a 'work-from-home' and office-based environment, communications in the area are excellent. The local road network, including the A338 and A36, draws the regional centres of Salisbury, Bournemouth and Southampton within striking distance. There are mainline rail services from Salisbury and Southampton Parkway (90 minutes and 71 minutes respectively) to London Waterloo and international airports at Southampton and Bournemouth.
Outdoor enthusiasts will undoubtedly be satisfied by the wonderful location and Woodgreen Common is close by, providing access to glorious walking, riding and cycling country. There is a choice of local golf and angling clubs in the vicinity and sailing opportunities abound on the South Coast and at Spinnaker Sailing Club at Blashford Lakes, near Ringwood.
A short driveway and set of gates lead to the property and a garage attached to the side of the bungalow, access to which is now overgrown. The gardens are located to the front and rear of the property and we understand were once laid to lawn with shrub and flower beds and fruit trees, although they are now generally very overgrown and in need of clearance.
