4 bed town house for sale

Haven Close, Christchurch BH23

A well-presented three-storey townhouse, situated in a premium and peaceful end-of-cul-de-sac position, enjoying stunning westerly-facing views across Stanpit Marsh, down to Mudeford Harbour and Spit. The property offers spacious and flexible accommodation arranged over three floors, together with ample parking, an integral garage and a low-maintenance rear garden designed to make the most of the exceptional outlook.

The Situation:

Mudeford enjoys a spectacular location with Christchurch Harbour on one side and Christchurch Bay on the other. Mudeford was originally a fishing village; today picturesque Mudeford Quay, at the mouth of Christchurch Harbour, continues this legacy.

The Quay is a focal point for the area and is popular with families going crabbing as well as water sports enthusiasts. There are stunning views to Mudeford Sandbank and across Christchurch Bay to the Isle of Wight, while a promenade heads east to sandy Gundimore and Avon Beaches. Mudeford has also developed impressive foodie credentials with the likes of smart waterside restaurants The Jetty and Upper Deck at Christchurch Harbour Hotel, while there is an annual seafood festival on Mudeford Quay.

For families school provision is good with Mudeford Junior judged ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted, while property choice includes old fishermen’s cottages, high specification contemporary builds, marina developments and waterfront apartments. Comprehensive facilities are available at Christchurch, two miles west.

Grounds & Gardens:

The property is approached via a generous brick-paved and gravel driveway, providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. There is also access to the rear garden via a side gate.

The rear garden is accessed directly from the kitchen, dining and living space through double patio doors and enjoys a desirable westerly-facing aspect. Designed to be particularly low maintenance, the garden is predominantly bespoke resin bound surface and features a large raised decking area, providing an excellent space for outdoor seating and entertaining. The raised deck is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the stunning views across Stanpit Marsh and the westerly aspect, making it an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the afternoon and evening sunshine.
