Donnington Drive, Mudeford, Christchurch, BH23

A well-proportioned detached family home, situated in a highly desirable area within walking distance of Avon Beach and nearby amenities. The property offers generous living accommodation, including five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large garden room, off-road parking, and an integral garage.

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. A ferry service from the Quay takes pedestrians across the harbour mouth to Mudeford Sandbank. This sandy peninsula is a glorious destination with its continental vibe and colony of colourful beach huts - the most expensive ones in the UK.

THE PROPERTY

A welcoming entrance porch opens into the hallway, providing access to all principal ground floor rooms.

To the front, a well-proportioned living room enjoys a large bay window and an electric fireplace with an attractive tiled surround. Double casement doors connect through to the dining area.

At the rear lies an open-plan L-shaped kitchen with tiled flooring throughout and an opening into the dining area. The kitchen is fitted with a good range of white gloss wall, base, and drawer units with laminate worksurfaces, together with a peninsular unit forming a breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a double oven and a four-ring gas hob with extractor over.

From the dining area, doors open into a conservatory with a log burner, creating an appealing focal point, while enjoying pleasant views over the garden.

A useful utility room, adjacent to the kitchen, provides further storage and space/plumbing for white goods, and also gives access to the integral garage.

The ground floor also includes a generous double bedroom with ample space for furniture, served by a modern shower room comprising a walk-in shower with rainfall attachment, WC, and wash basin, finished with fully tiled walls and flooring.

To the first floor, there are four further bedrooms, three of which are doubles, including one with full-width fitted wardrobes.

The bedrooms are served by a family bathroom fitted with a panelled bath with shower attachment and screen, WC, and wash basin, with fully tiled walls.

OUTSIDE

The property is approached via a block-paved driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to the integral garage.

The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, enclosed by mature hedging and fencing, and features a large patio adjoining the property.

A substantial garden room, currently used as a games room, sits to the rear, complemented by an adjoining barbecue area and a covered seating space.
