Outside:

The shared hallway leads to only three apartments and a ground floor shared storage room, with light and power, where paddle boards, kayaks and bikes can easily be stored. The apartments have right of way to access the rear of the property and storage room through the large double gates to the left of the main front door and courtyard. It is also worth noting during the summer fete period the apartment benefits from bunting at eye height out of the window and during the Christmas Period a magical carpet of fairy lights!

The Property:

The entrance door at high street level leads to a shared hallway and covered storage area. The original turned wooden staircase leads to the first floor. The front door opens onto a light and airy hallway with a decorative central archway and a south facing sash window at one end that looks onto the cobbles. The hallway has ample fitted storage.

The property has many features of the period including original picture rails, high ceilings, fireplaces and refurbished sash windows. The elegant living room benefits from an open fireplace with marble insert and wood surround and mantle. A wide arch leads through to the dining room where there is a home working space. The room could easily become a second bedroom and has been used as such by the current owner. The west facing large sash windows in the living and dining room give attractive views of the bustling high street.

The kitchen has been carefully thought through to maximise storage, with granite work surfaces and integrated appliances including fridge/freezer, extraction unit, and Neff induction hob, microwave and Hide and Slide oven, and space for washing machine and dishwasher.

The sunny main bedroom has a south facing sash window with wooden plantation shutters, fitted wardrobes and a feature fireplace. The bathroom is spacious with a shower above the bath, pedestal wash hand basin, heated towel rail and storage cupboard. A step-down leads to the WC with a view of the river from a small window.

The Situation:

Perfectly positioned at the top of the famous cobbles, within moments of the quay and waterfront cafes, restaurants, train station and only a short walk from the salt water baths, the deep water Marinas and Sailing Clubs and stunning coastal walks. The Georgian market town of Lymington offers extensive restaurants and boutiques and is surrounded by the outstanding natural beauty of the New Forest National Park. To the north is the New Forest village of Lyndhurst and Junction 1 of the M27 which links to the M3 for access to London. There is a branch line train link from the nearby Lymington station to Brockenhurst Railway Station (approximately 5.5 miles) which provides a half hourly service to London Waterloo with a journey time of approximately 90 minutes.
