Property description

Owners Comments
\"We have particularly enjoyed the beautiful garden, it was cleverly designed to provide colour and interest throughout the year. It can be seen from all the ground floor rooms and we often get a frisson of pleasure when we catch a glimpse of it as we go about our daily business. The views from the first floor encompass endless fields and trees taking advantage of the private position.\"

\"Having the New Forest on our doorstep is a real pleasure, with acres of countryside it is a dog owner's paradise. We also benefit from easy access to the M27 which allows us to be in Southampton or Salisbury in approximately 20 minutes.\"
