Woodgreen is a thriving village on the North West boundary of the New Forest National Park, with much of the village itself and immediate surrounding area designated as a Conservation Area. The bungalow is tucked away within the Densome Wood reaches of the village, which is well served by a number of facilities, including a superb community run Post Office/shop, public house and village hall, all within walking distance. A traditional village green, Woodgreen Common, is home not only to the local cricket team but also the ponies, cattle and donkeys that so freely roam the New Forest. The forest offers many miles of unspoiled heath, moor and woodland, making an ideal location for those who enjoy walking, riding, cycling and other outdoor pursuits.

The Avonside town of Fordingbridge and the Cathedral City of Salisbury between them have comprehensive facilities for all day to day needs including reputable schools within the state and private sectors and both are within 10 miles.   Communications in the area are excellent. The B3078 from Godshill supplies a convenient link with the M27 at Junction 1 for Southampton, the M3 and London beyond. The A338 passes through the Avon Valley and provides commutable access to Salisbury, Bournemouth and Poole. There are international airports at Southampton and Bournemouth and mainline stations to London (Waterloo) from Salisbury and Southampton Parkway.

The property is approached through a 5-bar wooden gate over a gravel driveway that passes under a natural arch formed by mature rhododendrons. The driveway continues to the side of bungalow to a generous parking area and DOUBLE GARAGE with twin up and over doors, power and light connected.

The delightful gardens are an undoubted highlight of the property. The front garden is laid to an expanse of manicured lawn that flanks the main driveway and is bordered by a selection of established, colourful rhododendrons and azaleas set in deep beds, offering a high degree of privacy. There is access either side of bungalow to the rear garden where a patio adjoins the bungalow and leads to an enclosed, sheltered gravelled seating and entertaining area and SUMMERHOUSE. Beyond the patio is a further area of lawn that runs into light woodland with well maintained paths trailing through and leading to a LOG STORE. There is a further SUMMERHOUSE nestled into the rhododendrons at the side of the bungalow, a private, shady spot for a cool drink or reading a book.
