4 bedroom detached house for sale

Set in one of Lymington’s most desirable semi-rural locations and within the New Forest National Park, this unique home enjoys open views across fields towards the Isle of Wight. Thoughtfully restored and finished to a high standard, the property offers a rare blend of character, contemporary design and proximity to the river, sea wall and town.


Stepping through the front door, you enter a welcoming hall with practical storage and quarry tiled flooring, which leads into an inner hallway laid in herringbone wood. A stylish ground-floor shower room sits nearby.

The heart of the home is the striking sitting room, full of character with a lofty vaulted ceiling, minstrel's gallery and a full-height brick fireplace housing a wood-burning stove. A spiral staircase leads up to the galleried landing above, while doors open directly onto the rear garden.

The kitchen/dining space is flooded with light from skylights and garden views. Fitted with bespoke cabinetry, quartz worktops, a double butler’s sink and quality appliances including a Bertazzoni range cooker and integrated fridge/freezer.

There are two ground-floor bedrooms: a double-aspect principal suite with en-suite shower room, and a smaller fourth bedroom with fitted bed frame.

Upstairs, the landing overlooks the sitting room and frames the countryside beyond. Two further bedrooms enjoy wonderful far-reaching views, and there’s a family bathroom with storage.

The gardens are a particular feature — well-screened and laid mainly to lawn, adjoining open fields with lovely views across to the Isle of Wight. At the front, a gravel driveway offers parking for several cars and leads to a detached oak-framed garage with utility room.

Outbuildings include a fully equipped garden studio/home office and a bar/games room with adjoining shower room — ideal for entertaining or working from home.

A rare opportunity in one of Lymington’s most peaceful yet accessible settings, within walking distance of the river and coast.

Lymington is a thriving Georgian market town perfectly positioned between the New Forest National Park and the Solent coastline. Its vibrant High Street blends well-known names like Marks & Spencer and Waitrose with a variety of independent boutiques, cafés, restaurants, pubs, and tea rooms. The town also offers an excellent choice of salons, beauticians, and everyday amenities.

The popular Saturday market brings a lively atmosphere to the town each week, attracting both locals and visitors. For those who enjoy life on the water, Lymington is a sailing hotspot, with two marinas and yacht clubs offering direct access to the Solent. Nearby beaches and scenic coastal walks add to its outdoor appeal.

On land, the surrounding New Forest offers endless opportunities for walking, cycling, and horse riding. Local sports and leisure facilities include a golf course, tennis and bowls clubs, cricket and rugby grounds, a football club, skate park, and play areas. The Recreation Centre features a 25m indoor pool and fitness classes, while the historic open-air seawater baths offer summer fun beside the river.

Lymington also has a community centre, small cinema, library, and a range of infant, junior, and secondary schools all within walking distance of the town centre.

It’s this combination of location, amenities and lifestyle that makes Lymington one of the South Coast’s most sought-after places to live.
