THE PROPERTY

The property is accessed through a bright and airy entrance hallway, which leads to all ground floor accommodation and includes large feature windows overlooking the front and rear garden.

The ground floor features three spacious double bedrooms, one currently used as a reception room that opens into the rear conservatory, all providing ample space for furniture and storage.

The ground floor accommodation is serviced by a modern three-piece Villeroy & Boch bathroom featuring a white panelled bath with an overhead shower attachment, WC, hand wash basin, heated towel rail, and complemented by contemporary tiled floors and walls.

On the opposite side of the hallway, a generously sized kitchen is equipped with a fully fitted wooden kitchen, complemented by a tiled splashback. It incorporates integrated appliances, including a double oven, four-ring gas hob with extractor fan above.

Off the kitchen is a practical utility room, offering space and plumbing for white goods, with access to the rear garden and single garage, which is fitted with an electric up-and-over door.

From the hallway, an open-tread staircase ascends to the first floor landing, where a double bedroom is located, complete with built-in wardrobes. This generous bedroom benefits from expansive views to the front of the property and is serviced by a four-piece shower room featuring a large walk-in shower cubicle, along with fully tiled floors and walls.

A key feature of the property is the spacious first-floor living room, with sliding doors opening onto a south-easterly facing balcony, offering stunning views over the surrounding golf course, across to Hengistbury Head and the coastline.

THE SITUATION

This beautifully presented family home is located in Hengistbury Head (also known as East Southbourne) which is named after the scenic headland which forms a natural boundary between Christchurch Bay and Poole Bay. This is a pleasant residential area comprising mostly coastal chalets and mid-century family houses on wide roads and quiet closes.

There are golf and sailing clubs in the area. However, Hengistbury Head itself provides a tremendous local facility, and an escape to be enjoyed year-round. This is one of the most important Sites of Special Scientific Interest in England: a nature reserve of grassland and woodland with unspoiled beaches and, from its highest point, spectacular panoramic views over Christchurch Harbour and Christchurch Bay. The inner harbour bustles with yachts and windsurfers. There is a south-facing sandy beach where the headland narrows at Mudeford spit – renowned for its colourful beach huts. Here there is also a good cafe and ferry services across the mouth of Christchurch Harbour to Mudeford Quay.

Living in Christchurch

Christchurch is a delight; a harbourside 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 mainline station and a good variety of independents 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. A wide range of activities are available such as cricket, golf and watersports. Another boon for families are the schools – rated at least ‘good’ by Ofsted, while Christchurch Infant School, Mudeford Infant and Junior Schools and Twynham comprehensive are all graded ‘outstanding’.

An attractive range of property includes architect-designed new builds, fine Georgian houses and modern townhouses, some in waterside locations and with views across Christchurch Harbour.
