The Property

A welcoming entrance hall gives access to the principal ground-floor rooms, with stairs rising to the first floor.

The sitting room is a generous and well-proportioned space, with a feature fireplace providing a natural focal point and glazed doors opening to the rear garden. The room is large enough to accommodate a substantial seating arrangement while retaining a comfortable, balanced feel.

The kitchen/dining room is the standout space within the house and has been designed as a highly practical and sociable area for both everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of shaker-style cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and a breakfast bar, together with integrated appliances. The adjoining dining area is particularly generous, with extensive glazing bringing in plenty of natural light and doors opening directly onto the terrace and garden, creating an easy flow between inside and out.

A separate utility room provides useful additional storage and space for laundry appliances, with direct access outside. A ground-floor cloakroom and internal access to the garage complete the accommodation on this level.

On the first floor are four bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes. The second and third bedrooms are both well-proportioned doubles, while the fourth bedroom offers flexibility as a child’s room, guest room or home office.

The bedrooms are served by two well-appointed bathrooms, including a stylish family bathroom with a freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower, together with an additional contemporary shower room. Both have been finished to a high standard and complement the overall quality of the refurbishment.

Grounds & Gardens

To the front, the property is approached over a private driveway providing off-road parking and access to the integral garage, with a neat front garden helping to set the house back from the road.

To the rear, the garden forms an attractive extension of the living space, with a broad paved terrace providing plenty of room for outdoor dining and seating. The remainder is mainly laid to lawn with established planting and mature boundaries creating a pleasant sense of enclosure. Direct access from the kitchen/dining room makes the outside space particularly well suited to entertaining and family use.

Situation

Christchurch is an historic market town located beside the sheltered waters of Christchurch Harbour with the New Forest to the east and Bournemouth’s lively seaside resort to the west.

This charming and picturesque town has been shaped over the centuries by its position at the confluence of the Rivers Avon and Stour. Features include waterside walks and parks, among them the Quomps, a grassland area frequently used as a venue for events, a Saxon watermill, 11th century Priory and 12th century castle ruins.

There is a thriving high street of quality independents, plus an excellent selection of bistros, cafes, pubs and restaurants, among them Captain’s Club Hotel and The King’s Arms. Christchurch is also home to the immensely popular Christchurch Food Festival.

The town attracts retirees, families and the active. Christchurch Harbour is ideal for paddleboarders, sailors and windsurfers, while families are drawn by the excellent schooling, including Twynham secondary school and sixth form college judged ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted. Property ranges from character family homes and modern chalets to quayside developments. Communications are good: train services from Christchurch’s mainline station take around two hours into London while the A35 provides access to road networks.
