Mudeford is nestled on the very edge of the unspoilt Christchurch harbour, a haven for wildlife and water sports enthusiasts alike. The harbour offers sheltered water in a picturesque setting, ideal for dinghy sailing or windsurfing or simply relaxing in a civilised setting.
Within a short walk of the house are several excellent pubs, local shops, the luxurious 4 star Christchurch Harbour Hotel and Spa, sandy beaches at Friars Cliff and Mudeford Quay.
The nearby town of Christchurch has a wealth of shops, restaurants, banks and a main line railway station with a regular and fast service to London Waterloo within 90 minutes.
The property is one of the very finest waterside homes in the area, featuring elegant and comfortable rooms with the ultimate in luxurious fixtures and fittings.
The stylish Mark Wilkinson designer kitchen blends beautifully with the numerous period features the house has to offer. The accommodation has a very versatile layout with the potential of a completely self contained annexe or office suite with separate external staircase. The top floor of the house could also be utilised as a spacious flat.
To the front of the property is a grand entrance porch which leads into the spacious hallway, with the very impressive limed oak staircase and galleried landing.
Immediately to the rear of the property is a charming glazed veranda, opening out to a large southerly facing terrace, which affords spectacular views over the landscaped and beautifully mature gardens with the harbour beyond. At the foot of the garden is a private dock and lagoon giving direct water access into the inner harbour.
The sweeping drive leads through security gates and onto the front of the house; there is a large detached garage block with garden room and also a double integral garage.
Included within the sale is the benefit of current detailed planning consent for the building of a large detached four-bedroom Georgian style house which would have its own large garden to the edge of the harbour and access to the water. This development opportunity could be realised to create supplementary accommodation to the existing house, or as a separate dwelling for sale on the open market.
