FERNDALE Located in the quiet rural village of Awbridge, this wonderful four-bedroom family home has been loved and lived in by its current owners for the last 20 years. This delightful property is full of charm with its cosy wood burner and double doors in the sitting room, and splendid country kitchen with dining area, again with double doors leading onto the lush gardens outside. This property is oozing with potential and is situated on one of the most exquisite country roads in Romsey.

Seller Insight Ferndale is a spacious detached family home that enjoys a private and prime village location in sought-after Awbridge, and only three miles from the delightful market town of Romsey. The present owners say the house has been a superb home, and the rural location a great place to bring up their family. They have loved their twenty years in Ferndale.

When they moved in the owners decided to move walls to create the generous kitchen diner which, with its positive and welcoming ambience, is now the sociable hub of the home. Open the patio doors to the pretty garden that captures the sunlight all day long.

The two lounges are both used and enjoyed, but the family tend to spend summer in the front lounge and migrate to the rear lounge during the winter months where, even on the dullest of winter days, the soft and leafy view into the garden will lift the spirits. The front lounge made a perfect playroom when the children were young and later as a space for them to watch their own TV programmes.

Ferndale has been the setting for many happy family gatherings and the easy flow of rooms, easy access to the garden and space for parking up to five cars, make it an ideal entertaining venue. The owners have fond memories of an event when over fifty people enjoyed being in a home that is at its best when full of people.

The leafy garden is mainly set to lawn and seasonal colour and is bordered by hedges with the conservation area beyond. A rural tranquillity surrounds you in the garden and it is peaceful to sit on the round “helicopter pad” patio halfway down the garden, where you can simply savour the calming atmosphere that surrounds you.

Ferndale is a stone’s throw from the church, the primary school, and village hall, whilst historic Romsey, with its comprehensive range of amenities, is a five minute drive away. The owners say that for them the town is a very special place with a lovely vibe. They add that they are great cruise lovers and have valued the easy access to Southampton which is less than thirty minutes away.

Ferndale has been a delightful home, and the owners will miss the green tranquillity, although with no immediate neighbours they have loved being able to play music loudly. It has been a very special home, and they take away many happy memories.*

PAULA SILVA ASSOCIATE AGENT Fine & Country Southampton 07920 558 709 paula.silva@fineandcountry.com After being in Wedding and Events Management, Interior design, and Property Development, coupled with my fascination for property, I realised that if I combined all my skills together, they would equate to me making my mark as a property specialist.

After having been a former client of ‘Fine & Country’, I decided that this was the property route for me, and I can honestly say that I have never looked back.

I understand how frustrating and stressful the whole process of buying and selling property is. My personality is to nurture, and problem solve, take control if that’s what’s needed, and hopefully make a difference in the industry. Fine & Country allows me to be myself, be creative with marketing ideas, be there from start to finish and tailor everything specifically to you - for you.

At Fine and Country, our approach is very refreshing. We are more of a ‘hold your hand’ agency, than an aggressive, numbers driven company, which fits more with my personality. I love what I do and thrive on making a difference with our client’s property ventures.

The luxury property market really excites me and being an Equestrian lover with two horses of my own, the Equestrian property market is also very much of interest to me.

I live in Romsey, with great knowledge of the area and am thrilled to be able to tailor our bespoke packages to you, offering you the best service possible, therefore helping you achieve your property goals and dreams.
