THE SITUATION

Highcliffe on Sea (or simply Highcliffe) sits on a high bluff above a beautiful stretch of sand and shingle beach. This small leafy coastal town, straddling the Dorset/Hampshire border, is best known for Highcliffe Castle, an ornate early Victorian mansion, once home to Mr Selfridge and now an events venue. Its grounds enjoy outstanding views across Christchurch Bay towards the Isle of Wight while footpaths head off to a wooded nature reserve or zig-zag down to the beach.

Highcliffe is ideal for those searching for a relaxed yet smart seaside lifestyle. A high street of useful independent shops includes a bakery and gourmet grocery. Highcliffe also nurtures a foodie reputation with an annual food festival and tasty selection of cafes, gastropubs and restaurants.

THE PROPERTY

Secure intercom entry leads into a well-maintained communal hallway, with access to the apartment. Inside, a spacious and welcoming entrance hall provides access to all principal rooms, as well as a useful utility room with plumbing and space for white goods, and an airing cupboard.

All three bedrooms are well-proportioned and offer ample space for furnishings and storage. They are served by a sleek four-piece family bathroom, comprising a panelled bath with shower attachment, a separate corner shower, WC, and hand wash basin, all set against smartly tiled floors and walls.

The principal bedroom is particularly generous in size and features built-in double wardrobes along with a contemporary en-suite shower room, complete with a large walk-in shower, WC, and vanity unit with inset basin, finished with stylish tiling.

The heart of the home is the superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living space. Enjoying a sunny double aspect and floor-to-ceiling windows, this bright and airy room opens directly onto a private patio area.
