A Rare Opportunity in the Heart of the New Forest National Park.

Furze Lodge presents a unique opportunity to acquire a substantial five-bedroom detached residence set within over half an acre of beautifully landscaped gardens, with private direct access into the New Forest National Park. Situated in the highly desirable village of Hale, this exceptional home is offered to the market for the first time in over 40 years, a reflection of its enduring appeal, extraordinary setting and remarkable lifestyle offering.

Discreetly positioned along Forest Road, the property enjoys absolute tranquillity, framed by unspoilt natural beauty. With the National Park quite literally at the rear boundary, Furze Lodge offers seamless access to thousands of acres of protected woodland, open heath, and walking and riding trails, a true sanctuary for those seeking space, privacy and connection to nature. The residence extends to over 2,700 sq ft and offers versatile and well-balanced accommodation ideal for family life, multi-generational living or those requiring work-from-home flexibility.

The property is approached via a private, sweeping shingled driveway leading to a generous parking area and a detached double garage with two up-and-over doors. Above the garage is a large additional room currently utilised as a music studio, offering potential for conversion to an office or ancillary accommodation (STPP).

Internally, the home is arranged around a striking conservatory/dining room, a bright and welcoming space that serves as the heart of the home, with a vaulted glass ceiling, log-burning stove and panoramic views over the south-facing gardens. From here, the accommodation flows seamlessly into a well-appointed kitchen, finished with bespoke cabinetry, solid oak worktops, and integrated appliances. A separate utility/laundry room and study further support modern family needs. The elegant sitting room is a generously proportioned, dual-aspect reception space with a feature fireplace, bay window and high ceilings, while a tranquil side porch offers the perfect vantage point for enjoying the gardens and surrounding wildlife.

The ground floor offers three generous double bedrooms, two of which have fitted storage, including a principal bedroom with private access to a large, tiled wet room comprising bath, walk-in shower, WC and wash hand basin. Two further double bedrooms are served by the ground floor bathroom. The first floor provides two additional double bedrooms, each benefitting from an abundance of natural light and views across the grounds. One of the bedrooms has a walk in dressing room and the other the airing cupboard. A well-appointed family bathroom on this level includes a double shower cubicle, bath, WC and basin.

Externally, the gardens are a particular highlight, immaculately maintained and thoughtfully landscaped to create a sense of peace and seclusion. Mature trees, flowering borders, fruit trees, a vegetable garden and a large lawned area all enjoy a stunning backdrop of ancient woodland. A paved terrace offers ample space for al fresco dining and entertaining, while a discreet rear gate provides private, direct access into the New Forest, offering a lifestyle that is both rural and richly connected to one of the UK's most celebrated natural landscapes.

This exceptional home combines substantial accommodation, remarkable outdoor space and an unparalleled New Forest setting, a rare and privileged opportunity for those seeking to create a long-term family home in one of the South of England's most treasured locations.
