THE PROPERTY

Upon entering, you step into a useful porch area, which then leads to a further glazed inner door opening into a bright and inviting entrance hallway. An open-tread staircase ascends to the first floor, while the central hallway provides access to the downstairs living areas.

Through a door on your right, the sitting room greets you with a feature gas fireplace and a window overlooking the front of the property.

Another door leads back to the entrance hallway, from where you can access the well-appointed kitchen, located at the rear of the property. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall-mounted and floor-standing units, complemented by sleek work surfaces, a tiled splashback, an inset sink, and a stylish breakfast bar. The rear part of the kitchen features a vaulted ceiling with Velux windows that flood the room with natural light. From here, a door provides access to the rear garden.

Heading back towards the front of the property, another door leads to a versatile reception room. This bright and airy space could serve as a study, dining room, additional sitting area, or even a downstairs bedroom. A window offers a view of the front of the property, and another door leads back to the central hallway.

Across the landing, a second double bedroom also benefits from beautiful views over the fields. The third bedroom, also a double, is located at the front of the property and offers views over the front.

THE SITUATION

This delightful home is situated in the small village of Burton, close to the local school, doctor’s surgery, two gastro pubs and shop. It is situated on the edge of the Avon Valley, approximately two miles from the harbour-side town of Christchurch, with easy access to the south coasts stunning beaches at Bournemouth and Poole.

Christchurch is a delight; a harbour side town of character and charm located where the Avon and Stour rivers flow into Christchurch Harbour. Positioned between Bournemouth and the New Forest, Christchurch is a lively town with a mainline station and a good variety of independent and national brands (from Boots to Waitrose). It has become something of a foodie destination: chock-a-block with cafes, pubs, and restaurants, such as The Jetty on Mudeford Quay. It is also the venue for a popular food and wine festival that attracts some high-profile chefs.

Other attractions include the priory, castle ruins, nature reserves, nearby beaches and Mudeford Quay with ferry service to Mudeford Spit (with iconic beach huts) and Hengistbury Head.

OUTSIDE

The property is securely enclosed by a five-bar wooden gate at the front, beyond which is ample off-road parking on the block-paved driveway, providing space for several vehicles. The driveway runs along the side of the property, leading to the rear garden via a single gate. There is also a single up-and-over door providing access to the double tandem garage.

The well-maintained rear garden features a patio area directly off the back of the house, perfect for al fresco dining. The middle section of the garden is laid to lawn, with shrub borders providing privacy and a sense of tranquillity.

An ideal seating area is positioned to make the most of the stunning sunset views over the fields, offering a beautiful and peaceful backdrop to the garden.
