£1,950,000 via Spencers, Brockenhurst: 01590 631661

A substantial six-bedroom family residence offering almost 4,000 square feet of flexible accommodation including a one bedroom attached annexe set in one of the most sought after and exclusive locations in Brockenhurst, with the benefit of planning permission granted to substantially extend further including a loft conversion.



Farne House enjoys a beautiful setting within a quiet and convenient area, just a short walk from the village and the open forest. The village of Brockenhurst benefits from a mainline railway station with direct access to London Waterloo (approximately 90 minutes) and an extensive range of local shops, restaurants, a primary school and popular tertiary college, as well as the renowned Brockenhurst Golf Club. The Georgian market town of Lymington is approximately 5 miles south with its extensive yachting facilities, Saturday market and a ferry service to Yarmouth, Isle of Wight. To the north is the New Forest village of Lyndhurst and Junction 1 of the M27 motorway which links to the M3 for access to London.

This superb family home comprises five bedrooms in the main part of the house and a generous two storey, one bedroom annexe, arranged to either function independently or as a seamless continuation of the main house, on both floors.

To the front aspect, a triple aspect entrance lobby with slate floor and storage cupboard opens into the main reception hall, which features a solid wooden floor, a door to the cloak room and doors to the principal reception rooms, as well as a solid wood balustrade staircase ascending to the first floor.

The drawing room is of generous proportions, with dual aspect windows overlooking the front and a corner open fireplace fitted with a Jet master grate and wooden surround. From here, double doors opening into the dual aspect garden room, which in turn opens via folding doors into the dining room. Both these rooms offer options for a variety of uses and feature solid wooden floors, with double doors from the Garden Room opening out onto the terrace.

The kitchen/breakfast room is a magnificent area, bathed in light and enjoying views over the rear gardens. This room has been designed to bring the garden into the heart of the house with a conservatory style surround, fitted with Venetian and pleated blinds and roof ventilation. There is a central island work area and breakfast bar and ample room for dining furniture.

The kitchen is fitted with a wide range of maple units, with space and plumbing for a dishwasher and built-in appliances comprising an integrated Neff oven and grill and a separate Neff halogen hob with integrated Neff microwave. There is also space for a fridge/freezer. A further door leads to spacious pantry with storage and fitted shelves.

A door leads to the large utility room with a range of storage cupboards with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, space for an under counter fridge/freezer and a stable door which leads to the front of the property and to the most useful covered side entrance porch. Doors from here lead to the rear garden and to the separate annexe living accommodation comprising a dual aspect living room, cloakroom and separate kitchen. The annexe further enjoys private access from the side of the property, which opens into a small lobby area. A stairwell from the lobby leads up to the wonderful dual aspect bedroom with en-suite bathroom facilities. This superb set up means the annexe remains separate, but can easily be integrated into the main house if required.

From the main entrance hallway, a wooden staircase leads to the first floor landing with windows above the stairwell. There are several large storage cupboards including a large airing cupboard. A loft hatch gives access via a ladder to the part boarded loft space.

The principal bedroom suite has a large rear aspect window with views of the gardens, ample fitted wardrobes to one wall and a door to the newly re-fitted en-suite shower room. This room has a ceramic tiled floor, a walk in shower, separate vanity unit with WC and wash hand basin, window to the rear aspect and a ladder style radiator.

The three remaining bedrooms enjoy ample fitted storage and wardrobes and elevated views across the different aspects of the grounds. These bedrooms are served by a new, high specification family bathroom/wet room with generous Villeroy and Boch bath, rain shower, double basin and vanity unit with storage, WC and a ladder style radiator.
