Ringwood | Hampshire | BH24 3HT SHOBLEY HOUSE Fine & Country New Forest Are Delighted to Introduce Shobley House Shobley House Shobley | Ringwood | Hampshire | BH24 3HT SHOBLEY HOUSE Fine & Country New Forest are delighted to introduce Shobley House. A six bedroom Victorian/Edwardian detached country home set in approx. 3 acres, located in the New Forest village of Shobley. Coming to the market for the first time in 39 years, Shobley House is situated off a country lane approximately 2 miles east of the market town of Ringwood. The property has direct access to The New Forest, making it the ideal home for riding, walking and cycling. The house is set in a traditional heritage garden with sweeping lawns, formal gardens and fruit trees and a large vegetable plot, all complemented by its own natural woodland. The Property On entering the property, you are greeted by a generous Reception Hall. There is a centre piece period style fireplace with electric fire, prominent art deco style glazed window with shutters, and a window seat with an under storage cupboard. This hall leads on through to the spectacular Drawing Room which has an American oak floor and period windows. The half glazed door leads out onto a large covered veranda and attractive crazy paved Portland stone patio which overlooks the sweeping garden lawns. Continuing back out to the reception hall, the Living Room comprises a centre piece log burner fire place and American oak flooring. This then leads onto the conservatory which features double French doors giving direct access onto the rear patio and lawn. The conservatory provides yet another area for dining and relaxation. The spacious Dining room is beautifully presented with period doors which also has access onto the rear patio and garden. The kitchen features Italian tiling throughout and has beautiful granite work tops, light oak kitchen units and a range of eye level fitted cupboards. A rear lobby leads to a larder, boot room area, utility room and a door to the rear garden. A staircase leads up from the reception hall to a first floor landing and the main bedroom suite with matching built in wardrobes and a separate dressing room and en suite bathroom. There are four further bedrooms and two family bathrooms, one with a steamer shower cabinet. A second staircase leads up to the second floor where there is a sixth bedroom and attic storage. Seller Insight Nestled in three acres of stunning gardens and grounds is Shobley House, an elegant six-bedroom period home that occupies a coveted location within the New Forest National Park. “It was actually my sister who found the house; my husband and I weren’t looking to move at the time, but one Christmas when the whole family was sitting around the table playing cards she suddenly produced a sheet of paper with the details of Shobley on it and announced, ‘I picked this up for you’,” says the owner. “It captured my husband’s imagination immediately so we all decided it wouldn’t hurt to take a look, and I have to say we – in fact, the whole family – fell in love with it the minute we laid eyes on it. That was almost forty years ago and in all that time we’ve been exceptionally happy here.” “It’s such a pretty house and incredibly light and bright throughout, and it has some gorgeous features including the beautiful Edwardian windows, the likes of which I’ve never seen before. It’s also a real family home and has been the venue for so many wonderful occasions. At Christmas we regularly have twenty-four for lunch, and in the evening, when the children were much younger, they would disappear upstairs to dress up then all pile down and put on a show. We also held carol concerts in the drawing room and while we were running our business the house, and indeed our beautiful grounds, provided a really elegant backdrop to lots of formal functions. It’s a place that is filled with so many wonderful memories.” “One of the things that I love is the fact that the majority of the rooms are dual aspect and the house is completely enveloped by our stunning gardens and grounds so the views are just lovely,” continues the owner, “and the outside space is yet another standout feature. We have around one and a half acres of formal gardens and around the same amount again of beautiful woodland, which creates this wonderful barrier between us and the rest of the world so we enjoy complete and utter privacy. It’s a gorgeous place to just sit and relax, and it was also a really magical place for the children to grow up in, and our grandchildren love it so much that they’ll spend the whole of their summer here, which is lovely. As I said, it’s a real family home and we’re going to be so very sad to leave.” “All of the rooms are lovely, but the drawing room is the one that holds the most memories. The children put on their shows in there, it was the venue for our annual carol concerts and day to day it’s a very tranquil room to just sit and relax in.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property. They have not been independently verified, should not be relied on without verification and do not necessarily reflect the views of the agent. We feel very lucky living here as it’s a place where we can enjoy just about everything. We have mile upon mile of beautiful open countryside right on the doorstep, we’re within the New Forest National Park so it’s a fantastic place for walking, and we’re just a short drive from the beach. We also have an array of well-served towns and villages within easy reach so all of our day-to- day needs are catered for. What more could you want?” I can honestly say that we’re going to miss absolutely everything about Shobley,” says the owner. “It has been the most wonderful family home and it’s filled with nothing but incredibly happy memories. It’s been a very special place to call home.” Adjacent to the house we have a lovley self-contained annex (pictured above). It has three bedrooms plus a shower room and we currently use it as a home office, but it could be ideal for visiting guests or perhaps a great Airbnb. The annex was initially installed to provide office facilities for our training consultancy, housing seven workstations. Location The property is ideally located in an area of outstanding natural beauty, approx. 2 miles from the historic market town of Ringwood. Ringwood is a popular location as it offers the perfect blend of country living whilst being only 11 miles from the local beaches and benefiting from the excellent road links via the A31 to London, Winchester or Bournemouth in the opposite direction. European and international flights are offered from Bournemouth and Southampton Airports and Ports at Poole and Portsmouth provide links to France, Spain and the Channel Islands.. Ringwood is well known as home of the Ringwood Brewery, as well as the old cattle market which has been transformed into a stylish shopping quarter featuring names such as Aga, Hobbs, Joules, Waitrose and Waterstones whilst also hosting a programme of events, including live music and farmers’ markets. The high street has retained its character, holding a weekly market and being home to a new artisan bakery and a variety of decent eateries. Families are attracted by the sense of community and the highly regarded secondary school. The larger town of Bournemouth is approx. 13 miles away and offers a wide range of shops and eateries. The mainline train station at Southampton provides a direct line service to London Waterloo. Outside The property is approached from a country lane via double electric gates. The sweeping gravel driveway leads to a detached double garage with a pair of electric doors and an adjoining workshop. There is also a detached self-contained annex located between the double garage and the main house, which is currently used as an office and visitor accommodation. The grounds extend to approx. 3 acres and are made up of formal landscaped gardens and a natural woodland area. There is a range of fruit and mature trees and even a shingled path leading to a bluebell wood which is prominent in early Spring. There is a stunning mature eucalyptus tree, Camellias, Oak trees and mature shrubs. There is also a large well stocked wild garden area with pathways allowing access to walk around a wide variety of flowering plants, bushes and wild flowers as well as a vegetable garden supported by a greenhouse and outbuilding for garden machinery.

  • WESTERN ESCARPMENT CONSERVATION AREA ACTION PLAN: 2012-2017 Conservation Area Action Plan
    WESTERN ESCARPMENT CONSERVATION AREA ACTION PLAN: 2012-2017 The Western Escarpment Conservation Area is the first conservation area action plan for the National Park. A Steering Group consisting of representatives from parish and town councils within the conservation area was formed to prepare the action plan. While preparation of the plan has been facilitated by the Authority, the Plan has been very much led and agreed by the Steering Group. The Action Plan sets out an overall vision for the conservation area, identifying major issues affecting the area and focuses attention on maintaining the conservation area as a special, distinctive place for future generations to enjoy. The Action Plan identifies a number of actions which are currently being worked on by the Steering Group (with assistance from the Authority). The action plan was endorsed by the Authority at its meeting in June 2012. Conservation Area Action Plan 1 Introduction 1.1 The National Park Authority as planning authority has a duty under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 to consider the designation of conservation areas. A conservation area is defined in the Act as “an area of architectural and historic interest the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance.”There are 20 conservation areas within the New Forest National Park. 1.2 The Western Escarpment Conservation Area was designated on 26 March 2008 in recognition of its special architectural and historic interest 1.3 As part of the process of designating or reviewing conservation areas, planning authorities are encouraged to prepare Character Appraisals and the Western Escarpment Conservation Area Character Appraisal was published in March 2009.
