Description

What’s On Offer?
A characterful first floor apartment just moments from Town Centre, Mudeford Quay and Avon Beach, with allocated parking!


With two good sized bedrooms, both with large windows and high ceilings, you’ll have options for guests, kids or home office space. Through the door, kick off shoes and hang your coat in the entrance…a split level hallway runs to the kitchen/living room and gives access to all rooms on the way, along with bookcase storage.
The heart of this home is the living room-kitchen area- open plan and full of character; it’s bright thanks to a large sash window and even lighting and cosy in the evenings. It’s perfect Netflix spot you’ll look forward to returning to. The kitchen features integral appliances, solid wood worktops and period-appropriate cabinet hardware…the character continues.
There’s a communal courtyard garden by the building entrance (a surprising sun trap!) but on sunny days you’ll be at the beach/ on the water!

 

The Location? Handy, Historic.
You’ll be living just a short walk from Stanpit marsh nature reserve, which is easily accessed via a picturesque woodland walkway down the side of the building. Christchurch is always in high demand and Purewell is just a five minute stroll from the town centre with a strong offering of pubs, restaurants, coffee spots and shops to choose from, all amongst a historic setting that includes ruins of Christchurch Castle (1160!). There’s a mixed demographic of owners at Hengistbury House- a community that shares an enviable seaside lifestyle that many can only dream of. Southbourne and New Milton are a few minutes away by car/bike or the reliable public transport network, plus rail services from Bournemouth and Christchurch offer speedy direct access to London.

Health-conscious buyers will be glad to know that Two Riversmeet sports centre is a short walk away for swimming/gym, with other options also nearby.
Set back from the main Purewell road, Hengistbury House is perfectly placed for lucky individuals and couples alike. We can also see this home attracting buyers wanting a secure lock-and-leave bolthole.
This is a historically significant, handsome building from the late Georgian period (1837) that oozes charm with original sash windows, characterful architectural features and a commanding presence.
