Stable Cottage is a beautifully finished, three-bedroom single-storey home that has been recently extended and refurbished throughout to an extremely high standard. Positioned in the heart of Burley, and offered to the market with no onward chain, the property combines practical living space with quality features and a well-designed layout.

An oak-framed canopy porch with tiled step leads to the hardwood stable door, opening into a welcoming entrance hallway with herringbone tiled flooring, wall panelling, and a built-in bench with coat hooks. From here, there is access to bedroom two and the main open-plan living area. Solid wood flooring flows throughout the property, enhancing the sense of space and continuity.

Bedroom two is a double room with side aspect window, vaulted ceiling and wall panelling. The main living area is a large, semi open-plan space, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. It features a vaulted ceiling with exposed oak beams, three Velux skylights, and a feature double-sided log burner set between the lounge and dining areas. Windows to both front and rear aspects allow for plenty of natural light, and from the dining space, french doors open directly onto the rear garden.

The kitchen is fitted with hardwood units and quartz worktops, a five-ring induction hob with extractor, Montpelier double ovens, Falcon wine fridge, integrated Montpelier dishwasher, and space for an American-style fridge freezer. The sink is positioned beneath a rear-facing window, and there are open oak shelves above the tiled upstands for easy access to everyday items.

From the kitchen, an inner hallway leads to bedrooms one and three, the shower room and a separate cloakroom. There’s also a large storage cupboard which houses the Glow-worm boiler and space for a washing machine.

Bedroom one is a spacious double room with a front aspect window, exposed brick chimney, fitted double wardrobe and a freestanding bath set on herringbone tiled flooring. Bedroom three is also a double room, with vaulted ceiling, panelling and a front-facing window. The shower room is fitted with a large walk-in thermostatic shower, herringbone tiled flooring, wooden shelving and a character towel rail. The cloakroom has a slimline basin, WC and feature panelling.

To the front, a five-bar gate opens to a newly laid gravel driveway with planted borders. There is ample off-street parking, a Pod Point EV charging unit, a brick-built log store, and a useful outdoor dog shower. A gravel path runs alongside the house to the rear garden, which can also be accessed via the French doors.

The south facing rear garden is tiered and landscaped with gravelled levels, gabion-style retaining walls, and inset LED lighting to the steps. The first level includes a seating terrace and BBQ area, with further steps leading to a lawned upper section surrounded by fencing and mature trees. A circular fire pit with built-in seating sits at the centre of the garden, offering a great space for outdoor entertaining.

The property is currently operated as a successful holiday let, benefiting from strong occupancy levels and positive guest feedback. Its high-quality finish, layout and location within the New Forest make it an appealing option for short-term stays and presenting an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking either a second home with income potential or a full-time residence.

Stable Cottage combines tranquil forest living with exceptional local convenience, making it a perfect base for both full-time residence and weekend escapes.

The Setting
