5 bed detached house for sale

The Coppice, Brockenhurst, Hampshire SO42

A striking and immaculately presented five bedroom detached family home, arranged over two floors and set within a generous, mature plot in one of Brockenhurst's most sought-after private roads.

With its distinctive Tudor-style gables, tile-hung bays and deep red brick elevations, the house presents a handsome facade to a sweeping gravel driveway, while to the rear it opens onto a broad, sun-filled lawn bordered by well-established planting and mature trees. A garden of real scale and privacy, rare so close to the heart of the village.

A welcoming reception hall, laid in warm limestone-effect tiling, sets the tone for the house and leads through to the principal reception rooms. The sitting room is a fine dual-aspect space of some (19'11 x 15'7) centred on an elegant marble fireplace and opening through to a bright garden room beyond (12'6" x 10'6") a lovely spot to sit with the doors open onto the terrace in summer.

The kitchen/breakfast room (17'9 x 14'1) is fitted with a comprehensive range of gloss units around a central island and enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden; it connects through to a separate utility room and to the light-filled dining room (13'11 x 11'4), which in turn opens via French doors onto the garden. A charming room for entertaining, complete with vaulted ceiling.

Two further studies/home offices (15'9 x 11'11 and 11'2 x 10'2) provide excellent space for those needing to work from home or could be utilised as further ground floor bedrooms if required and a cloakroom completes this level.

The first floor landing, lit by a striking central velux window, gives access to five well proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom (16'2 x 10'9) benefits from a stylish en-suite shower room finished in mosaic glass tiling, with a freestanding vessel basin, walk-in rainfall shower and heated towel rail. Bedroom two (13'0 x 12'0)also features an ensuite whilst the remaining three bedrooms are served by a well appointed family bathroom.

Externally, the house sits well back from the road behind a gravelled driveway offering ample parking and turning space, with well-tended borders and climbing roses softening the entrance. To the rear, the garden is a particular feature of the property: A generous level lawn flanked by deep, well-stocked flower beds and screened by mature trees and hedging, giving a real sense of seclusion. A paved terrace immediately behind the house provides an excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

A detached garage/games room (19'0 x 18'8) with adjoining store offers excellent additional space, whether for parking, storage, or as a home gym, studio or playroom, subject to any necessary consents.

The property also features solar panels that have produced a tax-free income of circa £1200 pa.
