The Avonside town of Fordingbridge (approx. 4 miles) provides a comprehensive range of day to day services, including schooling within both the state and private sector, a medical/health centre, a good range of local shops, a building society and a library. The excellent communications network allows ready access to the regional centres of Salisbury, Bournemouth and Southampton; all have mainline rail links to London Waterloo and there are airports at the latter two.
For the outdoor enthusiast, myriad footpaths and bridleways exist in the surrounding area and there is magnificent out-riding to be had on near-by Whitsbury Downs; the contrasting moor, heath and woodland of the New Forest is approximately five miles to the East. There is a selection of golf clubs in the locality, racing at Salisbury and sailing opportunities abound on the South Coast.
Dunbury is approached from Whitsbury Road into a wide entrance. The house is directly to the left and the drive continues straight on to the paddock.
Dunbury sits in a glorious, elevated position with far reaching southerly views across the Rockbourne valley to the rolling hills beyond. To the side of the property there are superb views of the Cranborne Chase National Landscape.
From the gravel parking area there are paved limestone steps to the back door and the paving continues to the front of the house.
To the front of the house is a paved limestone path leading from the French doors in the centre of the house to sweeping steps that lead down to the lawn and the paddock beyond. The lawn is bordered by pretty herbaceous beds and the steps are flanked by large flowerbeds. Beyond the lawn is the paddock with open aspect and unrivalled views,
To the west of the track that leads to the paddock is a part wooded wilderness area with large tractor shed, disused chicken coop and bonfire area. This area is perfect for watching the sun go down over the Cranborne Chase or sitting around the fire late into the night.
To the north of the house there is a pedestrian gate that leads from the road to the front porch with a large log store to the left hand side. Shallow steps lead up to the parking area and a paved path continues around to the back door.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING REGULATION
We are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering checks on all parties involved in the sale of a property - i.e. both buyers and sellers. We use a service offered by The Guild of Property Professionals called Verify365 to perform these checks. This is a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: Woolley & Wallis receive a portion of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.
