Situated in a lightly wooded location, Forest Edge is an impressive home with extensive accommodation which lends itself to a primary residence and also has versatility to provide independence for an extended family if required. Arranged over two floors, the house stretches to almost 4,500 square feet and sits proudly within more than an acre of private gardens which include a fabulous entertaining terrace, complete with swimming pool, with several points of access from the house.

This is a great home for family life and entertaining with extravagant reception rooms as well as a wonderful open plan kitchen with double doors to a family room which can be closed off to create a more cosy space. A fine reception hall has double doors into the formal dining room with French doors to the west facing terrace. The drawing room is magnificent with twin bay windows and French doors to the garden and there is also a large study.

An additional wing on the western flank provides a large room with access to the utility room and shower room which could be used as an annexe.

Two staircases give access to the first floor, one rising to a galleried landing, branching off to seven bedrooms, most with fitted storage and the master suite benefitting from a superb dressing room and bathroom. Two further lovely bathrooms are arranged on the first floor and two bedrooms open to a balcony which enjoys the afternoon sun and a view over the garden.

The gardens surround the house and are mainly lawned with tree and shrub borders to the boundaries.

Well positioned within its private location, protected by automated gates which open to a sweeping driveway leading to a three bay carport, Forest Edge in Ampfield has easy access to Romsey, Chandler’s Ford and Winchester, which all provide an excellent range of amenities. Excellent schools for all ages lie within short driving distances making this a superb home for all the family.
