A wonderful opportunity to own one of the most beautiful and well-positioned houses in Lymington.
Old Solent House is a Grade II listed property, built as a merchant's house around 1700, later serving as a pub and an art gallery before becoming a private home. It is of classic Georgian proportions with a symmetrical facade, sash windows and a six panelled front door with a fanlight above. To one side of the hallway is a double aspect drawing room with an open fire and views over the front and the east-facing garden. On the other side of the hall is the dining room which forms part of a double reception area with iconic views up Quay Hill. There is room for a study area, with an internal window to the hallway, and bi-fold doors and steps to the kitchen. The spacious, fully fitted kitchen/breakfast room has an impressive bay window enjoying views over the garden. Adjacent is a cloakroom and utility room with a door to the garden. The main bedroom, with fitted wardrobes, overlooks the garden and has an en suite bathroom; the guest bedroom has views to the front and a Jack and Jill bathroom. On the second floor are two further bedrooms (one currently used as a home office) and a family shower room.A significant additional benefit of the house is the award-winning garden studio which makes an ideal home office. Designed by Natalie Skeete of Forest Architecture it includes a wet room and ample cupboards/storage, ceiling light and bi-fold doors opening out onto the south facing garden patio.
Lymington has a vibrant high street with a range of restaurants, cafes and independent shops. Also within easy reach are the town's renowned sailing facilities including several sailing clubs and marinas. Lymington is well connected to the capital with trains to London Waterloo taking less than two hours via Brockenhust. The New Forest National Park surrounds the town offering countless walks and cycle rides across beautiful and unspoilt countryside.
