Parsonage Barn Lane, Ringwood, BH24

Set within a residential lane, this handsome four-bedroom detached home combines the timeless character of the 1930s with a series of stylish, well-planned improvements. The result is a versatile and inviting home that perfectly balances charm, practicality and space for a growing family.

From the moment you enter the enclosed porch, with its stained glass detail and solid wood flooring, there�s a sense of warmth and quality. The entrance hall, with understairs storage, leads to three generous reception spaces. At the front, a bright dining room with full-height bay window and feature open fireplace offers a perfect setting for family meals but could equally serve as a fifth bedroom or home office. At the rear, the living room and additional dining area are open plan yet distinct, connected by an opening, with French double doors leading onto the rear patio, creating a seamless flow for entertaining.

The kitchen breakfast room is a real heart-of-the-home space, with Shaker-style units, solid wood worktops, a Belfast sink and integrated appliances. A peninsula breakfast bar offers casual seating, while travertine limestone-style flooring adds to the sense of quality. There�s space for a range cooker, with extractor canopy and stainless steel splashback, plus clever storage solutions including a pull-out larder.

Upstairs, the layout continues to impress. Four double bedrooms include two with private en suite shower rooms, while the remaining rooms share a sleek, fully tiled four-piece family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys dual aspect windows, wall-to-wall wardrobes and a luxurious en suite with twin vanity basins.

The rear garden, a highlight of the property, extends to around 80 feet in length and offers both privacy and maturity, with lawn, established trees, shrubs and hedging. A paved terrace provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining, while a substantial 5m x 2.9m timber outbuilding offers a workshop with power and lighting, and an adjoining 2.3m home office.

To the front, the shingled driveway provides extensive parking and turning space, with room for multiple vehicles, a boat or caravan. The large attached garage (6.6m x 4m) has power, lighting, and rear garden access.

Additional benefits include gas central heating with a new Vaillant boiler (2023/24), double glazing, side access to both sides of the home, and a useful ground floor cloakroom. This is a property that offers both character and modern comfort in equal measure, in a setting that supports both family life and entertaining in style.
