Hurn Lane, Ringwood, BH24

Some homes simply give you more space. Others give you a different way of living. Avon Glen is one of those homes. Tucked away down a small lane just off Hurn Road and approached via a private shingled driveway, Avon Glen has a lovely sense of arrival. Set within a mature plot approaching half an acre, this substantial detached home has been thoughtfully renovated and extended to create a property that feels impressive in scale, yet considered and comfortable in everyday life. Inside, the sense of space begins with the vaulted entrance hall and continues through to the heart of the house: an impressive 18ft vaulted open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. Flooded with natural light, this is a truly beautiful space designed around modern living and bringing people together. The impressive four-metre bi-fold doors open the kitchen and living space directly onto the south-facing garden, creating a wonderful connection between inside and out. Alongside them, a charming bi-fold window opens from the kitchen onto a breakfast bar, creating a lovely little spot for morning coffee, casual lunches or drinks with friends while enjoying the garden beyond. The substantial island provides a natural focal point for everything from morning coffee to relaxed evenings with friends, while the generous proportions allow space for dining and comfortable seating within the same room. With the bi-fold doors and window open, the kitchen and garden flow naturally together, making this an especially inviting space for entertaining. The bespoke Shaker-style kitchen combines timeless detailing with contemporary practicality, featuring Quartz worktops, a substantial central island, high-quality integrated appliances and a walk-in pantry. The accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to offer an unusual degree of flexibility. With five double bedrooms, including two generous bedrooms on the ground floor, Avon Glen lends itself particularly well to multigenerational living. One of the ground-floor bedrooms benefits from its own en suite, offering a degree of privacy and independence for an older relative, adult child or guest. The additional ground-floor bedroom, together with the dedicated study and separate sitting room, provides further flexibility for different generations, guests or those who simply value having their own space. Meanwhile, the impressive open-plan kitchen and living area creates a natural heart to the home where everyone can come together. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a particularly considered space, incorporating a dressing area and en suite. The family bathroom is equally impressive, with a beautiful freestanding bath, separate shower, dual sinks and WC, creating a luxurious and practical space for everyday use. Outside, the garden is an important part of the appeal. South-facing and approaching half an acre, it has been landscaped to create a series of spaces for sitting, dining and entertaining, complemented by established planting, lawn and raised decking. The clever connection between the kitchen and garden, particularly through the bi-fold doors and opening breakfast bar window, makes the outside space feel like a natural extension of the home during the warmer months. There is ample parking on the private shingled driveway, together with a detached double garage providing useful additional storage. The location brings another dimension to Avon Glen. Situated just over a mile from Ringwood town centre, the property is close enough to enjoy the town's shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, while the Castleman Trailway, River Avon offer opportunities to step into the surrounding countryside. The wider New Forest, Dorset and Hampshire countryside are also within easy reach, offering a wealth of opportunities for walking, cycling, exploring and enjoying the outdoors, while the area's road connections make it possible to remain well connected to the coast and surrounding towns. Avon Glen has been created for someone who wants more from their home . More space, more flexibility, more connection to the outdoors and a setting that feels genuinely special. A distinctive New Forest home, beautifully finished and thoughtfully designed, with the versatility to adapt to different stages of life and the spaces to enjoy time together. **Twilight image:** Sky and lighting have been digitally enhanced for ambience.
