<p><strong>ATTENTION CASH BUYERS!</strong><br/>(Draft details awaiting vendor approval)<br/><br/>A truly exceptional opportunity to buy a unique residence, set in the middle of a substantial plot measuring around 0.6 acres, with no immediate neighbouring properties, and direct access onto the New Forest National Park. The impressive gardens surround the property and feature a wide variety of historical outbuildings. Many remain, but others are either gone completely or dilapidated, and they all add to the charm and opportunity on offer. The property itself currently provides accommodation comprising an entrance lobby, two double bedrooms, a lounge with wood burning stove and separate reading area, a fitted kitchen, a dining room and a bathroom. Each room enjoys a pleasing outlook across the well-maintained gardens.<br/><br/>Location<br/>Gatewood Hill is a forest Lane within The New Forest National Park and is also situated just a short drive from the local beaches at Lepe Country Park and Calshot. There are various amenities conveniently placed in Blackfield centre including schools, shops and a regular bus service to the surrounding areas including Hythe and Southampton. The pretty villages of Exbury and Beaulieu are both nearby. Many indoor and outdoor activities can be enjoyed at local sports centres including Gang Warily Recreation Centre, Calshot Activity Centre and Dibden Golf Centre.<br/><br/><strong>Important Agents Note:</strong><br/><strong>The property is set within The New Forest National Park and any alterations are strictly governed by The New Forest National Park Authority. </strong><br/><br/><strong>There is evidence of structural movement (photographed - it is only to the bathroom wall) and our client believes there may also be an issue with one of the drains. This will mean that any high loan-to-value mortgages are unlikely. Please make enquiries directly with your mortgage lender or adviser before registering any interest.</strong><br/><br/><strong>The property has mains water, mains electric and private drainage (cesspit). The heating is served by LPG via a ‘Worcester’ boiler. </strong><br/><br/><strong>We believe the property benefits from Forest Rights of Pasture, but we await formal confirmation from The New Forest Verderers and will confirm asap.</strong></p>
