4 bedroom country house for sale

Hazelhurst Farm is a rare New Forest find: a beautifully refurbished residential and equestrian estate on about nine acres, tucked on the peaceful edge of Sway. In total there is close to 10,000 sq ft across the main farmhouse, a cluster of character cottages, an impressive events barn, new stables, paddocks, a floodlit riding arena and a private tennis court. It works equally well as a discreet family home, a polished multi-generational base, or a lifestyle business with proven income.

The setting is spot on for New Forest living. Sway offers everyday ease with village shops, schools, a friendly tennis club and a mainline station to London Waterloo in just under 1 hour 10 minutes. A short drive brings you to Lymington’s marinas, river and boutiques, while Brockenhurst adds further amenities and a renowned golf course.

The main house blends classic character with a crisp, contemporary finish. A statement hallway with fireplace leads to a large sitting room and a chef’s kitchen with bespoke cabinetry and premium appliances. The dining area opens via bi-fold doors to the gardens for relaxed indoor / outdoor entertaining. Practical spaces include a utility, storeroom and WC. Upstairs, three calm bedrooms enjoy leafy views; the principal suite is dual aspect with generous storage and a lovely sense of light.

For guests, extended family or income, the farmstead offers a suite of charming dwellings: Orchard Cottage, The Milking Parlour, Dormouse, The Piggery, Shepherd’s Crook and The Cowman’s Cottage (currently operated as a holiday let). Current long-term rents are: Shepherd’s Crook £995 pcm; The Piggery £1,100 pcm; Dormouse £995 pcm; The Milking Parlour £1,100 pcm; Orchard Cottage £1,650 pcm; and the Farmhouse £2,995 pcm, around £8,835 pcm in total, excluding The Cowman’s Cottage and the barn. The barn is not presently let, though it is estimated at £1,500–£2,000 pcm as an office, subject to terms and any necessary consents.

The events barn is a genuine showpiece with soaring timber ceilings, a generous open-plan space and a bar, plus a brick-built smoker and pizza oven. A separate kitchen and washroom make it ideal for private gatherings, retreats, tastings or corporate off-sites, as well as a flexible commercial opportunity.

Equestrian buyers are well catered for with a new stable block, multiple paddocks and a floodlit riding arena arranged around a central courtyard. Away from the stables, lawns and a private tennis court complete the lifestyle picture.

If you are seeking a refined New Forest base with real versatility and day-one income, Hazelhurst Farm delivers. For the full information or to arrange a confidential viewing, please get in touch. Properties with this blend of quality, acreage and opportunity in Sway are seldom available.
