The property is one of a number of similar homes in this sought after development on the highly desirable Dock Lane that enjoy shared use of a jetty on the river which leads to The Solent and the extensive sailing facilities at nearby Bucklers Hard. The Situation The property is an individual architect designed contemporary style family house that forms part of a small development of similar properties referred to as The Hummicks, being built in the 1970's set amidst the light woodland that forms the eastern bank of the renowned Beaulieu River. The Hummicks is approached over a long access lane (Dock Lane) in the ownership of the surrounding Beaulieu Estate, over which the Dock Lane residents have right of access at all time for all purposes. The lane itself cuts through the Estate farmland running more or less parallel to the upper reaches of the Beaulieu River. The property benefits from having the direct access onto the Beaulieu River via a nearby shared jetty from which it would be possible to launch a tender/dinghy at all states of the tide. Beaulieu 1.3 miles, Brockenhurst 7.5 miles (London Waterloo from 94 minutes), Lymington 7.5 miles, Southampton Airport 17.6 miles (London Waterloo from 68 minutes). Times and distances approximate.
The terraces are positioned to capture the sun all day and offer total privacy. Grounds & Gardens The property is surrounded by landscaped, secluded and sunny gardens with lawns, terraces and ponds. Mature planting includes deciduous and evergreen trees and shrubs. The rear and side terrace is positioned so that it captures the sun all day and offers total privacy and tranquility. There is a large double garage with power. Agent s Note The Hummicks houses have use of the private deep-water jetty allowing access onto the Beaulieu River, which is a great asset to the property. The Hummicks and jetty upkeep is approx. 300 per annum. Upkeeping Dock Lane is subject to a modest annual fee of about 150 payable to the Beaulieu Estate. Both of these figures can go up or down and there is a residents' committee.
