Three bedrooms and two bathrooms
Superb country kitchen

In the heart of the National Park
Surrounded by miles of uninterrupted open forest
Walking distance to the Royal Oak pub
Quietly located in the highly sought-after New Forest hamlet of Eyeworth, in the heart of the National Park and surrounded by miles of uninterrupted open forest, yet within walking distance of the acclaimed local pub, The Royal Oak in Fritham. This superbly refurbished and modernised single-storey country home offers a fine blend of spacious, well-appointed accommodation, including three versatile bedrooms, two bath/shower rooms, a superb country kitchen, and an elegant open-plan sitting/dining room. The property is situated at the end of an unmade forest track and is offered for sale with no forward chain.
The Situation
The property is situated in the heart of the hamlet of Eyeworth, a designated conservation area surrounded entirely by the New Forest National Park. Enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside, the property is within easy reach of the ever-popular Royal Oak public house in Fritham and offers immediate access to miles of unspoilt open forest, ideal for walking, cycling, and horse riding. Despite its idyllic rural setting, Eyeworth is exceptionally well connected. Junction 1 of the M27 lies approximately four miles to the south, providing convenient access to Southampton Airport, Southampton Airport Parkway railway station, and direct mainline services to London Waterloo in approximately 70 minutes.
A number of highly regarded independent and state schools are within easy reach, including Embley School, which is approximately a 15-minute drive away, together with Moyles Court, King Edward VI School in Southampton, and the renowned grammar schools of Salisbury. The cathedral city of Salisbury, the market towns of Romsey and Ringwood, and the coastal destinations of Lymington and Christchurch are all readily accessible, as are Southampton city centre and Bournemouth.
The Property
The cottage is set within a delightful, manicured lawned garden, occupying an elevated position and enjoying far-reaching views across the forest and paddocks to the rear. The detached property, which originally formed part of a local gunpowder factory complex dating back to the late 1800s, has recently undergone a full programme of refurbishment. It now offers a rare combination of country character and charm with modern-day comforts. The property would make a unique and highly desirable home in a truly exceptional location.
The exceptionally well-presented accommodation benefits from high ceilings and elevated shelving, which together create a spacious, naturally well-lit atmosphere throughout. A charming entrance hall features a traditional pulley doorbell and bespoke bench seating with shoe and welly storage below, with a glazed door opening onto the rear garden. The stunning farmhouse-style kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of floor and wall units with contrasting work surfaces over, integrated appliances, and a feature dark green oil-fired Rayburn.
An open-plan sitting/dining room is centred around a striking exposed brick fireplace with inset wood-burning stove, while the defined dining area enjoys delightful views over the garden. A separate snug completes the living accommodation.
There are three bedrooms, including a dual-aspect principal suite with a Jack and Jill-style bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and a classic ball-and-claw freestanding bath. The second double bedroom is also dual aspect and is served by a stylish en-suite bathroom with vaulted ceilings. A third double bedroom is served by the Jack and Jill bath / shower room.
Grounds and Gardens
Externally, the property is surrounded by a beautifully mature English country garden with a rose-clad pagoda, stretches of well-maintained lawn, and a south-westerly facing paved seating terrace directly adjacent to the property. A five-bar gate and shingled driveway provide ample off-road parking.
