Island View Avenue, Christchurch, Dorset, BH23

A rare opportunity to purchase a coastal home in FRIARS CLIFF with a substantial size SOUTH-WESTERLY FACING REAR GARDEN and SEA VIEWS, situated just a stone’s throw away from Avon Beach.

Friars cliff is a sought-after location to live, situated on a beautiful stretch of the South coast. A short stroll away are the sandy beaches of Avon, with the Beach Hut Café, Noisy Lobster restaurant, salt-water saunas, and a lovely walk along the promenade to Mudeford Quay. Mudeford Quay hosts a variety of RNLI events and fun days, great fun for all the family. In the Summer months there is a ferry across to Mudeford Spit that runs every 15 minutes, offering a stunning coastal walk around Hengistbury Head. To the East is Steamer point nature reserve also providing a beautiful scenic walk to Highcliffe Castle and beyond.

Christchurch Town Centre is just over two miles distant with its historic 11th Century Priory, various shops, bars, and restaurants. Christchurch and Hinton Admiral railway stations provide a mainline commute to London and Bournemouth Airport is approximately six miles distant. Situated on Island View Avenue is this beautiful example of a well-presented red-brick home. Entry via front door into porch, with understairs storage.

The L-shape living/dining area is flooded with natural light, with a feature log burner and sliding doors to the rear patio. The kitchen offers plenty of storage with eye and base level units, some integrated appliances and a breakfast bar. A family shower room completes the ground floor accommodation. Upstairs there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a further office/fourth bedroom. The principal bedroom is a real feature, running from the front to the rear of the property. From the landing and the front office/bedroom you get sea views, which are better represented in person than in photography. The family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

Externally the rear garden is an incredible feature. Facing South Westerly to capture the beautiful sunsets, gardens of this size are hard to come by in Friars Cliff. Exiting through the sliding doors from the living room is an area of patio and then lawn, with a shed and summer house. The border is predominantly fenced with mature shrubs, ensuring complete privacy. To the rear is an area of vegetable patches, fruit trees and green house.

Externally, the front drive is shingled and has space for plenty of cars with a side gate to the right and has access to the integral garage.

Situated a stone’s throw away from Avon Beach opportunities to wake up, grab your paddleboard and be on Avon Beach in a matter of steps come few and far between.
