An excellent opportunity to acquire a generously proportioned detached chalet bungalow, currently in the process of being refurbished and remodelled to create a highly comfortable and well-balanced home. The first floor has been completed to a high standard, while the ground floor offers scope for completion and potential extension, allowing purchasers to tailor the property to their own requirements.
Externally, the property benefits from ample off-road parking, a large garage, and a private west-facing rear garden.
Newbridge Way is a peaceful and sought-after residential road, situated on the south side of Milford Road, with convenient access to Lower Pennington and onwards to the sea wall and foreshore. Local shops and schools are within easy walking distance, while Lymington High Street lies approximately one mile away, offering a wide range of shops, cafés, bars, and a popular Saturday market.
Lymington is also renowned as a yachting centre on the Solent, with its yacht clubs and marinas. The New Forest is just a short drive to the north, providing excellent recreational opportunities, while nearby Brockenhurst offers a sixth form college and a mainline railway station with direct services to London Waterloo in approximately 90 minutes.
The property is approached via a brick-paved driveway leading to a large entrance porch, opening into a central hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and a useful boiler cupboard. All ground floor accommodation flows from this space, including a sitting room with an attractive tiled open fireplace, and a kitchen/breakfast room fitted with a range of cupboards, drawers, and appliances. A door leads to a side utility lobby, providing access to both the rear garden and the garage.
Note: Planning permission has been granted to extend the kitchen into the lobby area, with doors opening onto the garden.
Also on the ground floor are two double bedrooms, served by a shower room with shower cubicle, wash basin, and WC, along with a separate WC.
Stairs rise to the first-floor landing, where there are two further double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious, benefitting from extensive wardrobe cupboards and access to eaves storage, while the second bedroom also has eaves access. A recently refitted shower room completes the first floor, featuring a generous walk-in shower, vanity basin, WC, and heated towel rail.
To the front, the property enjoys a large driveway with turning space, alongside a lawned garden with hedge boundaries. The garage is larger than average, providing excellent storage or workshop potential.
The rear garden enjoys a westerly aspect, with an area of lawn and fenced boundaries offering a good degree of privacy.
