The situation
Located in Minstead, one of the New Forest National Park’s most sought after villages. Minstead has a vibrant community, a village shop, a village hall, a pub (The Trusty Servant), and a Norman church. There is direct access onto the open forest providing a network of footpaths and bridleways for walking and riding. Lyndhurst is approximately a seven minute drive away and is the largest village within the New Forest. It is a popular tourist location with many independent shops, art galleries, cafés, restaurants, pubs and hotels. Southampton is a vibrant, modern city which has the popular West Quay shopping centre and many attractions. The surrounding areas of Southampton and Winchester have a wide selection of well-respected private schools along with several others across the Dorset border. Communications are excellent with east and west access to the M27 and M3 within easy reach and Southampton Parkway station giving a link to London Waterloo within an hour and ten minutes. The coastal resort town of Bournemouth is also only a short drive away.
The property
Dating back to 1884, Castle Malwood Lodge was originally a hunting lodge for the Chancellor of the Exchequer Sir William Harcourt. The property still retains many period features but now offers light and airy accommodation, ideal for modern day living.
The property is accessed from the main communal hallway, via a beautiful carved oak staircase which leads to the first floor. The front door leads immediately into the studio apartment which incorporates both the bedroom and sitting area with electric heater and storage units.
A modern kitchen with integrated appliances and a newly fitted, modern bathroom sits to the rear of the properly. A further storage cupboard is located on the second floor.
Grounds & gardens
The grounds surrounding this stunning former country house are truly worthy of its original status, extending to approximately three acres in total and comprising areas of beautifully manicured lawns and established woodland, with direct forest access to the rear.
The apartment ideally benefits from an allocated space in the communal car park and there is further space available for guest parking.
