Exbury, Exbury And Lepe

A quite magical and exceptionally well-presented period cottage, forming part of a charming semi-detached house in the heart of the highly sought-after New Forest village of Exbury. Expertly refurbished to an extremely high standard, the property successfully combines period character with contemporary comfort and style throughout.
The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, leading to a generous sitting/dining room with a lovely aspect over the front garden and french doors opening into the rear garden. Adjacent is a separate, particularly cosy sitting room with an open fireplace, creating an ideal space for more informal relaxation.
The kitchen is a standout feature, superbly fitted with dark blue cabinetry, elegant quartz work surfaces, a Belfast sink and integrated high-quality appliances. There is a useful boot room area that flows off the kitchen and a ground floor shower room.
Stairs rise to the first floor landing. The principal bedroom is particularly charming, with a vaulted ceiling and a freestanding roll-top bath. The room also benefits from an ensuite. There are three further well-proportioned bedrooms (one with built-in double bunk beds, ideal for children or guests) and a beautifully appointed family bathroom. The cottage features rare, generous ceiling height, particularly in the bedrooms that set it apart from standard New Forest properties.
Externally, the cottage is approached via a pretty picket fence with a delightful cottage garden. The rear garden is a particular highlight, a generous, beautifully landscaped space with a large lawn, mature trees and shrubs, a paved terrace perfect for outdoor entertaining. Two useful garden sheds provide excellent storage.
Exbury is a quintessential New Forest village, renowned for its beauty and peaceful setting. The beautiful beach at Lepe is nearby. The property is conveniently placed for village amenities and the wider New Forest National Park, with excellent sailing, walking, riding and cycling routes on the doorstep. The vibrant towns of Lymington and Beaulieu are nearby, together with mainline rail services to London from Brockenhurst.
Exbury residents can also apply for a license that permits access to the estate's private pontoon at Gilbury on the Beaulieu River, making it an ideal retreat for those who enjoy life on the water.
