Set across eight acres of woodland, it&rsquo;s perfect for families and friends seeking a special escape. Floor-to-ceiling glazing, generous terraces, and open-plan interiors create the perfect social hub. Eco-features include solar power, underfloor heating, and triple glazing. Outdoors, enjoy private woodland walks and relaxing evenings by the water.<\/p>\n<h3>The space<\/h3>\n<p>The house has been designed with togetherness and relaxation in mind. From the moment you step through the vibrant red front door, you&rsquo;re welcomed into an expansive, light-filled reception where soaring glass walls bring the surrounding woodland and lake into every moment of your stay.<\/p>\n<p>The ground floor flows seamlessly between open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas, making it easy to gather as a group. The bespoke kitchen is fully equipped for cooking feasts, whether you&rsquo;re preparing a casual breakfast or a celebratory dinner. An eight-seater dining table invites long, sociable meals, while multiple lounge areas provide space for everyone to relax, including a snug with a sofa bed, available for additional guests on request.<\/p>\n<p>Glass walkways connect the wings of the house, creating a sense of adventure as you move between spaces. The master suite is a private haven, with a free-standing bath and dual walk-in showers overlooking the lake. Two additional double bedrooms and one king-size bedroom (can be twin beds on request), all with en-suites and terrace access, ensuring comfort and privacy for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>A separate annexe provides extra flexibility with a gym and extra bathroom. Outside, a wraparound balcony offers endless places for alfresco dining, stargazing or simply soaking up the surroundings. The house bridges a private lake and is encircled by eight acres of woodland, one island landscaped as a tranquil Japanese-style garden. A short walk away from the house, a private slipway leads directly to the River Hamble, inviting paddleboarding, kayaking or leisurely boat trips together.<\/p>\n<h3>Guest access<\/h3>\n<p>The owners will greet you on arrival and show you into the property<\/p>\n<h3>Sustainability<\/h3>\n<p>If you would like to offset the carbon emissions from your trip, get in touch and we can arrange this for a small fee.<\/p>\n<h3>Keep in mind<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Check-in:<\/strong> from 16:00<br \/>\n<strong>Check-out:<\/strong> by 10:00<\/p>\n<p>Please note that the water surrounding the house is not suitable for swimming, and life jackets are provided if the boat is used.
