Location

Brooksbank House is located on Pound Lane in the village of Copythorne, which lies within the boundaries of the New Forest National Park. When turning into Pound Lane from Romsey Road (A31) Road, proceed along the land and the property will be found on the right hand side. Upon entering the pillar and gated driveway, filter right into the grounds of no. 3.

Description

Brooksbank House was once a substantial manor house which has been converted into 3 imposing residential wings, with an abundance of character and rolling lawned gardens which are in the region of 1 acre. The property will now need some sympathetic restoration yet would allow a homeowner to move in and complete the works accordingly. This opportunity is a rare find and we would strongly advise an early inspection.

The current layout is as follows: Ground Floor: Reception Entrance Hallway, Sitting Room, Dining Room, Kitchen, Boot Room. First Floor: Landing area with Study Space, Bedroom One, Bedroom Two, Bedroom Three, Bedroom Four, Family Bathroom, Shower Room, Separate WC. Second Floor: Loft Room (Storage Area at present). Outside: The property sits in rolling grounds laid to lawn with extensive mature areas of shrubs, trees and discreet entertaining areas.

Important Notice

The Guide Price quoted must not be relied upon by prospective purchasers as a valuation or assessment of value of the property. It is intended to provide purchasers with an indication of the region at which the reserve may be set at the time of going to press. The guide price may be subject to variation and interested parties are advised to make regular checks for variations and should be aware that the reserve price may be either below or above the quoted guide price. Prospective purchasers should also be aware that the eventual sale price may be above or below the guide level dependent upon competition, and should therefore not presume the guide to be indicative of the final expected sale price or the price the property is available at. When setting the guide price, the auctioneers have given consideration to the seller’s instructions in respect of their indicated reserve price at the time of instruction. The reserve price, (the level below which the property will not be sold), remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. The guide price therefore, is intended to indicate the region at which the reserve price is intended to be set. The seller will confirm their final reserve price close to the auction date and if appropriate the auctioneers may adjust the guide price to reflect this.
