Enjoying an extremely private and peaceful setting on the fringes of Fordingbridge and the New Forest, the property offers over 5,400 sq ft of versatile accommodation ideal for multi generational living, entertaining, or those seeking a rural work from home lifestyle.

Dating back to around 1900, the property originally formed part of the historic Sandle Manor Estate and is believed to have served as the gardener s house to the main manor now Forres Sandle Manor School . The house has since been significantly extended and sympathetically modernised, creating a stylish and comfortable home of scale and charm.

Internally, Sandle Grange is beautifully presented with a series of impressive reception rooms, many featuring tall ceilings, decorative plasterwork and excellent natural light. The main entrance opens into a grand reception hall with a central fireplace. A generous L shaped drawing room enjoys a triple aspect and wood burning stove, while a separate sitting room also features a stove and adjoins a large open plan baking dining living area perfect for modern family life and with double french doors opening onto the extensive entertainment terrace. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with bespoke cabinetry, granite worktops, an AGA, range cooker, and a central island. There is ample space for informal dining and relaxed seating, with French doors opening directly onto the patio, creating a seamless link between indoor and outdoor living.

A total of seven bedrooms are arranged over the first floor and accessed via two separate staircases, offering great flexibility. The principal suite features a stylish en suite shower room and a walk in dressing room with bespoke built in furniture. Two further bedrooms have en suite facilities, and a luxurious family bathroom boasts a five piece suite with oversized shower and twin basins.
The house is approached via wrought iron gates from Marl Lane, a quiet unmade bridleway, leading to a long gravelled drive and an expansive courtyard providing ample parking. A double garage with boarded storage above sits beside a detached workshop and garden machinery store.

The gardens and grounds are a particular highlight, lying predominantly to the north, east and south of the house. Sweeping lawns are interspersed with mature trees including an impressive willow well stocked flower beds, wildlife ponds, and a productive orchard with apple, plum and quince trees. A large, partly walled terrace offers an ideal setting for al fresco dining and entertaining, with lovely views across the grounds. Approximately one acre is fenced as paddock.

Sandle Grange is tucked away near the end of Marl Lane in Sandleheath, a pretty village just west of Fordingbridge. The setting is semi rural and tranquil, while still conveniently located for access to local amenities. Fordingbridge offers a variety of independent shops, caf s, schools, a health centre and sports clubs. The New Forest National Park lies just beyond, offering miles of woodland and open heath for outdoor pursuits.

Excellent transport links include the A338 to Salisbury approx. 12 miles and Ringwood approx. 8 miles , and further on to Bournemouth and Southampton airports. Trains to London Waterloo are available from Salisbury, with a journey time of around 90 minutes. There are also excellent state and private schooling options nearby, including Forres Sandle Manor, Godolphin, Clayesmore, and the Salisbury grammar schools."
