Sway Road, Lymington, Hampshire, SO41 8QU

A modern interpretation of a traditional country barn.

Description

This exceptional home forms part of the exclusive Buckland Granaries development, an award worthy collection of just twelve architect-designed residences built by highly respected local developer Hartdene Homes. Surrounded by open farmland on the edge of Lymington, the property combines striking contemporary design, sustainable living and a lifestyle that feels wonderfully connected to both nature and community.

Designed with modern lifestyles in mind, the property centres around a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and living space that stretches across the rear of the house. Filled with natural light and opening through bi-fold doors on to the terrace and gardens beyond, it is a space made equally for relaxed family living and entertaining friends. In the summer months, doors can be thrown open to create a seamless transition between inside and out, while in winter the wood-burning stove provides a welcoming focal point The feeling throughout is one of quality and craftsmanship. A striking glazed entrance, vaulted reception hall and oak staircase set the tone on arrival, while carefully considered finishes, underfloor heating and generous proportions provide comfort and practicality in equal measure.

Upstairs, the principal suite offers a peaceful retreat from the day, with floor-to-ceiling glazing, a Juliet balcony and uninterrupted views across adjoining farmland. Watching the seasons change from this room is one of the property's simple pleasures. A walk-in wardrobe and luxurious en suite complete the suite, while two further double bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom provide excellent accommodation for family and guests.

Outside, the garden has been thoughtfully designed to complement the property's semirural setting. Raised planting beds encourage a more self-sufficient lifestyle, while the covered dining area provides the perfect spot for long summer evenings overlooking the fields beyond.

Equally attractive is the home's commitment to efficient modern living. Solar PV panels, an EV charging point, FTTP broadband connection and a hot water diverter help maximise renewable energy usage and reduce day-today running costs, while raised planting beds offer the opportunity to embrace a more self-sufficient lifestyle. With an EPC rating of B, the property delivers an increasingly sought-after balance of comfort, sustainability and future-proofed living.

For those seeking the best of both worlds, Buckland Granaries delivers a rare lifestyle opportunity: countryside walks from the doorstep, the New Forest moments away, and the vibrant sailing town of Lymington within easy reach. A home designed not simply to be lived in, but to be enjoyed.
