5 bedroom detached house

Situated in a front-line position on Highcliffe’s most sought after road is this five-bedroom detached chalet. Offering an incredible opportunity to create your own dream home with panoramic sea views, and offered chain free, viewings come highly recommended.

The Location
This fantastic home is set on the frontline, with Highcliffe Castle, Steamer Point Nature Reserve, Highcliffe Golf Course, the cliff top and beautiful award-winning beaches right on your door step. Following the golden sandy beaches of Highcliffe to the West, to Avon Beach, you’ll meet the award-winning Noisy Lobster restaurant, amongst other cafes, beach huts and Mudeford Quay. Mudeford Quay is renowned for its sailing, water activities and local fishing boats. It's a popular place for families with the shop at the end of the Quay selling crabbing nets, buckets, and bait. There is also a RNLI inshore lifeboat station, a Mudeford fun day once a year, and a highly regarded pub, The Haven Inn. Furthermore, the Mudeford ferry provides access across to the Mudeford Sandbank, generally every 15 minutes in the summer months, featuring the Beach House Cafe and adjoining Hengistbury Head. Christchurch Town Centre is approximately four miles distant with its historic 11th Century Priory, various shops, bars, and restaurants.

The High Street is a stone’s throw away with all of its shops, amenities, and well-regarded doctors’ surgery. The world-renowned Chewton Glen Hotel and Spa is within walking distance, along with Highcliffe’s golf course. The New Forest provides a brilliant balance of beach and forestry. Hinton Admiral station provides an easy mainline commute to London and Bournemouth Airport (approximately nine miles distant) offers an array of international travel.
