An outstanding Grade II Listed New Forest cottage with a self-contained annexe and original Listed forge, all in about 0.6 acres and surrounded by open parkland.
Forge Cottage is a fabulous period home built in 1793 in a prime New Forest village location. This most interesting home has seen significant investment over the years and now features a stunning kitchen/breakfast room with granite work surfaces and integrated appliances, a charming dual aspect sitting room with Inglenook fireplace housing a wood burning stove, a separate study and a beautiful conservatory with a westerly outlook over the grounds. There are three bedrooms upstairs (one en-suite shower room) and a family bathroom.
In our opinion, the cottage is in first class decorative order and this theme extends into the outbuildings. The Annexe is a lovely little, self-contained unit just a few yards from the main house and offers versatile accommodation over one floor, currently laid out as a kitchen, sitting room, bedroom and two shower rooms- naturally this could be used for a variety of purposes. Furthermore, the Listed Forge and Shoeing bay comprises a bedroom with en-suite facilities and a large adjacent workshop (with potential to convert subject to the necessary local planning consents).
The gardens and grounds are an absolute delight - all very private with flower beds and borders, a pond, rear terrace and formal gardens predominantly to the rear.
This is a unique package in such a privileged location we expect significant interest- should you have any queries or would like to arrange a viewing please contact us without delay.
