A beautifully presented house in a private elevated setting with far reaching Avon Valley views, benefitting from a superb barn-style outbuilding and manicured gardens of 0.38 acre.
A truly outstanding detached house set in lovely manicured gardens of 0.38 acre occupying a discreet, elevated position which blesses the house and gardens with a wonderful outlook, set in a small hamlet on the edge of the New Forest National Park. The principal house is believed to date from the 1950s , built in a very traditional aesthetic and was extended in 2004 with the addition of a 2-storey extension that created the spacious master bedroom suite and dining room below. The accommodation is supplemented by a superb oak framed barn-style outbuilding that provides auxiliary accommodation to suit a number of varying needs - such as a home office with excellent broadband - and is currently employed as a summer sitting/garden room. The gardens are equally well maintained and flank the house on the south and west elevations.

Stuckton is an ideal gateway to the North West corner of the New Forest National Park, one of a cluster of peaceful villages and hamlets in the immediate area including neighbouring Hyde and Frogham that share facilities extending to a primary school, public houses, the nearby Three Lions restaurant, village hall and shop with tea rooms and plant nursery. The Avonside town of Fordingbridge is a short distance away (approximately 1 1/2 miles) and offers a range of educational, recreational and health facilities. The local road network also provides access to the regional employment centres of Salisbury, Bournemouth, Southampton and Poole. The close proximity of the open forest makes it an ideal setting for those with a passion for outdoor pursuits such as walking, riding and cycling.
The property is approached via a gravelled driveway that opens to a turning circle and leads to a large area of parking and a timber GARAGE/SHED.
The gardens are beautifully landscaped and lie to the front and side of the house. The front garden is laid to lawn with borders planted with an array of colourful shrubs. To the side is a larger expanse of well tended lawn, a generous decked area adjoining the Outbuilding/Studio and a child's play area. Both sections of garden provide fantastic views of neighbouring countryside and there are many vantage points from which to enjoy the outlook.
OUTBUILDING
A superb oak-framed outbuilding with underfloor heating and exposed oak woodwork that could be utilised to suit a number of different purposes and as potential auxiliary accommodation to the main house. Twin sets of doors open to the surrounding decking, from which there are splendid views. A spiral staircase leads to a mezzanine level.
