Hook Park is a very prestigious location close to Warsash with access to the Hook with Warsash Nature Reserve which combines, woodland, pasture and wetlands to provide a habitat for a diverse range of wildlife and includes the shoreline of Southampton Water up to the mouth of the River Hamble well known as a yachting Mecca for yachtsmen with several marinas within a few minutes drive. Warsash has a wide range of local amenities including several pubs, shops, a cafe, an active Tennis Club within walking distance and several golf clubs a short drive away. There are numerous footpaths and one that leads to the village of Warsash along the foreshore where the iconic Pink Ferry will take you across the river to Hamble village. Solent Way, a well known walking route, is within a few minutes walk and is very popular for dog walking. Access to the M27 at J9, airports in Southampton and Bournemouth and mainline trains from Fareham and Southampton Airport Parkway give easy access to all parts of the UK and areas of Europe. On leaving Newtown Road in Warsash you will drive over a bridge into Hook Park which is worlds away from the mainstream and an oasis of calm. The original mansion, Hook House, built by William Hornby in 1790 was modelled on Government House in Bombay, where he was the Governor, on land given to him on his retirement by the British Government. Over the ensuing years the house was neglected by his descendants but early in the 20th century a new owner started a renovation project but it is likely that a fire was accidentally started by contractors working on the house and it was totally destroyed and never rebuilt so the land was sold for development. Located on a large plot of 1.3 acres Cotswold House is a substantial family home with an attractive facade to the front that is approached over a sweeping gravel driveway which leads to the front entrance, two double length garages with space for 8 cars, a single garage attached to the Pool House and ample parking for several cars. There are steps up to an imposing front door which leads into a large reception hall. The accommodation in the house extends to 4200 sq ft and is spread over 2 floors which includes on the ground floor a drawing room with substantial stone open fireplace and oak beams, original polished wood flooring, double aspect dining room, family room and a kitchen with separate breakfast/casual dining area. On this floor there is also a guest bedroom with ensuite bathroom and separate rain shower. There is also a cloakroom and utility room.. Stairs lead to the first floor landing with access to a large balcony overlooking the nature reserve and Southampton Water. A principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom and 3 further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a small nursery are all on this floor. Outside there is a single story building of 543 sq ft currently used as a one bedroom home called The Pool House which could easily be converted ( subject to planning regulations) to create a gym, sauna, spa, showers and changing rooms for the pool(currently unused) that is located to the front of this building. Adjoining the main house there is a double length garage with a 2 bedroom flat that has a kitchen/living area above and a separate entrance to the rear. Between the house and garage is an internal yard currently used as a dog run and kennel. There is a gardener's WC there too. The second double length garage is detached with a one bedroom Garden Flat above. Both these buildings lend themselves to re-development as a home office or incorporation into the main house to create more space. Currently, each unit is let under the terms of the Renters Rights Act which became law on May 1st 2026 and are generating approximately £1000.00 per month each, inclusive of heat, light and Council Tax. The Pool House is separately rated at Band C. The two flats are included in the main house for Council Tax purposes. Agent's Note: The Pool House and one of the flats has been separately assessed for energy efficiency, the other flat is included in the assessment of the main house. AI has been used to demonstrate what the pool could look like when filled with water.

Nestled in the heart of Whitwell, a charming and community-oriented village on the south of the Isle of Wight, Strathwell House is an architectural gem discreetly positioned within a secluded half-acre plot. Completed in August 2022, this stunning home was designed by acclaimed RIBA award-winning architect Lincoln Miles, known for his appearances on Channel 4’s Grand Designs. In collaboration with the current owners and local builder Richard Dowers, the property reflects a bespoke vision that blends contemporary open-plan living with a wonderful connection to the open fields that sit beyond the home.   From the moment you arrive, the property impresses with its understated cedar-clad exterior, which conceals approximately 3,000 sq. ft. of meticulously designed living space. A private gated entrance opens onto a gravel driveway, offering ample parking and access to the detached double garage, complete with power, and an electric door. The thoughtful design fully embraces the plot’s gently sloping topography, resulting in a unique layout that maximizes natural light and sweeping countryside views.   Inside, luxury and practicality unite in perfect harmony. The spacious open-plan living and dining area flows seamlessly into a high-specification kitchen featuring top-brand appliances, including Neff double ovens, a microwave, and a coffee machine. A built-in Airforce induction hob with an integrated rising extractor and high-end finishes ensures this kitchen is as functional as it is stylish. Adjacent to the kitchen is a useful utility room, with a large plant room and separate cloakroom. Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors from the spacious dining area open onto a paved terrace, with a heated infinity pool at its center—a true highlight for entertaining or simply enjoying on peaceful summer days.   The property offers three beautifully appointed bedroom suites, each with its own character and purpose. Two ground-floor guest bedrooms feature en-suite shower rooms and access to private courtyards, ensuring privacy and comfort for visitors. The principal suite, elevated at the rear of the home, includes a luxurious en-suite bathroom, a large dressing room, and a stunning wall of windows that create a floating-in-the-trees effect, making it the perfect retreat to unwind and take in the local wildlife.   The lower ground floor is a versatile space with its own entrance and shower room, making it ideal for use as a self-contained annex, home office, or additional living area. Currently fitted with a bar area, for entertaining and use as a games room, this area has been cleverly designed to allow for easy conversion into separate accommodation if desired. Throughout the property, underfloor heating powered by an air-source heat pump ensures comfort, while discreet internal blinds, LED lighting, and thoughtfully positioned external power sockets enhance convenience and style.   The outdoor space is equally impressive. The terraced rear garden offers a peaceful escape, bordered by a neighboring equestrian paddock and a brook. A beautifully landscaped path leads down through lawned areas, vegetable beds, and a polytunnel to a serene nature pool that integrates with the surrounding environment. The attenuation pond adds a functional and ecological benefit in its design, located at the rear of the plot.     WHAT THE OWNER SAYS:   Strathwell House has enabled us to enjoy being in the heart of Whitwell village’s vibrant community whilst nestled in a quiet rural plot that affords far reaching views of the surrounding downs. It has been a great home that was designed to be sociable and in which to host and entertain our family and friends.   Our historic village pub The White Horse Inn, is a couple of minutes’ walk away and is popular with visitors and locals alike. It has been a great place to make new friends and to socialise.   The neighbouring village of Niton has all the facilities we need day to day and is but a two-minute drive from Whitwell or an easy 20-minute walk away. Ventnor is our nearest town and has some great restaurants and pubs offering a wide range of cuisines. The town also offers a variety of locally owned independent shops that we love to support.   The footpaths and bridleways that criss-cross the village enable us to access the nearby cliff paths and to walk up to the surrounding downland where we enjoy spectacular island wide views when walking our friendly dog. Being close to the island’s southern Jurassic coastline stretching from Sandown to Freshwater means that living in Whitwell we enjoy easy access to some fantastic beaches.   Living on an island that has a tourism focus means that we and our visitors have a host of exciting and interesting activities to enjoy.
