This beautifully presented detached character home offers flexible living accommodation, off-road parking, and is ideally located just a short distance from Christchurch Town Centre. The property falls within the highly regarded Twynham School catchment area.
THE SITUATION
Christchurch has 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 Quay and 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.
