Lingwood Avenue, Christchurch, Dorset, BH23

A beautifully designed contemporary five-bedroom chalet, with garden studio, positioned on a southerly facing plot, in a sought-after location in Mudeford.

Mudeford Quay is renowned for its sailing, water activities and local fishing boats. It's a popular place for families with the shop at the end of the Quay selling crabbing nets, buckets, and bait. Community life is active in Mudeford. Mudeford Quay hosts various events including our local RNLI’s fun day and an arts festival, and has a well-regarded pub, The Haven Inn. Furthermore, the Mudeford ferry provides access across to the Mudeford Sandbank, generally every 15 minutes in the summer months, featuring the Beach House Cafe and adjoining Hengistbury Head. The award-winning Christchurch Harbour hotel and The Jetty restaurant are a short stroll away. Following the promenade Eastwards of the quay, is The Noisy Lobster restaurant, the golden sandy beaches at Avon, Steamer Point Nature Reserve, and the grounds of Highcliffe Castle. Also walking distance is the nearby Stanpit Nature Reserve and Christchurch Town Centre is approximately 1.4 miles distant (via a lovely walk across Stanpit Marsh), with its historic 11th Century Priory, various shops, bars, and restaurants. Christchurch railway station provides a mainline commute to London and Bournemouth Airport is approximately six miles distant. The New Forest National Park provides scenic forest walks and an array of wildlife.

Entry via front door into impressive hallway, providing access to all primary ground floor accommodation. To the rear is a bright and airy kitchen/dining room, with doors out to the rear garden. The kitchen has plenty of eye and base level units, with worktop over, breakfast bar and a range of high specification integrated appliances. Double doors lead through to the lounge, a cosy space to unwind. The utility/boot room is accessed off the kitchen, and a door leads into a garage with electric up and over door. Two well-proportioned bedrooms are situated at the front of the chalet, one currently utilised as a study, the other with an ensuite shower room. The family bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation. The ground floor benefits from zoned underfloor heating.

Upstairs, there are three large double bedrooms, all with beautifully appointed ensuite shower rooms.

Outside to the front is a large driveway with plenty of space for a multitude of vehicles. The rear sunny garden faces Southerly and is mainly laid to lawn, with fenced and shrub borders and an area of patio. A shed provides a handy storage option.

To the right-hand side of the property is a private access gate leading to a self-contained garden studio with bedroom/living/kitchen space and a shower room. The garden studio features a courtyard seating area and is complete privatised from the main home, offering a brilliant opportunity for income potential.

The building works done to this chalet style home were originally complete by a reputable local builder to live in himself but sadly had a change of circumstances, ensuring an excellent build quality.
