A captivating Grade II listed gem that masterfully weaves 18th-century maritime heritage with a flawless, turn-key finish. Once known as the Old Harlequin Inn, this enchanting property served as the headquarters of the local press gangs circa 1809 – the very spot from which Royal Navy recruiting parties operated during the height of the Napoleonic Wars.
This exceptional building remains a much-loved landmark on Lymington’s Admirals’ Heritage Trail. Yet today, following extensive recent refurbishment, it offers the perfect low-maintenance lock-up-and-leave home for those who crave character without the upkeep.
Extending to approximately 1088 sq ft the cottage provides three well-proportioned bedrooms, a delightful open-plan sitting room with woodburning stove set in an inglenook fireplace, a stylish kitchen/dining area opening to a spectacular glazed rear extension bathed in natural light, and a beautifully landscaped, secluded courtyard garden ideal for al fresco dining. There is also a good sized cellar, ideal
for storage.
Presented in immaculate order throughout, with thoughtful period details preserved alongside contemporary comforts.
