Owners Comments
“I have owned ‘Wigley View’ since 2006 and following a very
thorough renovation, it has been transformed into a lovely spacious
and bright family home that I now enjoy with my young family. We
are within walking distance of a lovely pub and a shop and yet have
a wonderful outlook. Deer frequently visit the garden, this morning
joined by a cock pheasant, whilst buzzards often sit atop the fence
posts in the meadow we overlook. I am sure that whoever buys our
home will also be very happy here.”
“Wigley is a secluded hamlet, unknown even to many locals.
Consisting of just eleven attractive properties, located off a
private track, we are within the New Forest National Park but
minutes away from an easy commute to Southampton, Salisbury,
Bournemouth and even London.”
Introduction
Having been the subject of a comprehensive extension and
refurbishment programme this substantial cottage offers stunning
views to every aspect and is situated in the tranquil hamlet of
Wigley benefitting from both privacy and excellent commuter access.
Wigley is a rural hamlet of just 11 attractive homes on the fringes
of the National Park and within walking distance of a choice of
excellent pubs and shop. Such is its privacy that even locals are
unaware of it. Wigley View offers well sized and beautifully
presented accommodation completed to a particularly high standard
to include luxurious bathroom suites, a stunning kitchen breakfast
room and spacious sitting room centred upon an impressive open
fire.
The views across the meadows are exquisite and the cottage also
features a beautiful south facing garden, ample parking and a large
detached garage. Constructed in 1930, the cottage has been
delightfully upgraded with the comforts of modern living yet still
retains much of its intrinsic charm including high ceilings and an
open fire.
Description
A
hardwood door opens to the entrance porch which serves as a useful
boot room/cloaks cupboard and provides access to the downstairs
cloakroom. The kitchen breakfast room is beautifully presented with
travertine tiled flooring through the open plan styling which
enjoys French doors overlooking the rear garden to open meadows and
beyond. The kitchen area is delightful, equipped with a bespoke
range of cream cottage style eye and base level units with granite
worktops and upstands designed by Harwoods of Winterbourne. A
feature central island provides additional workspace with inset
sink, integrated Smeg dishwasher and retractable power sockets and
also hosts further storage cupboards, drawers and an inset
dishwasher. The breakfast area accommodates a substantial dining
table and chairs, or a lounge suite if preferred. A utility room
supplements the kitchen and supplies plumbing and space for
appliances with further storage and a sink. The sitting room is a
delight, of good proportions with a dual aspect and doors to the
sundeck but still retains a cosy period charm with stripped wood
floorboards and an impressive fireplace with open fire and
traditional skirting boards. The front door opens into the entrance
hall with original tiled flooring, a wide staircase to the first
floor and access to the remaining spacious reception room which
could easily be utilised as a dining room, snug or large
study.
The landing is
light and bright enjoying views to the countryside and provides
access to the loft space. The master bedroom is exceptional in size
and aspect with views over paddock land, a host of fitted wardrobe
space and a door to the cleverly designed ensuite shower room which
is fully fitted with travertine tiles, a bowl sink, low level WC
and separate shower cubicle. There are three further well
proportioned bedrooms enjoying much natural light and are served by
the well fitted contemporary family bathroom hosting a P shaped
bath with shower over and touch light mirror above the pedestal
wash hand basin.
