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!

Mudeford has also developed impressive foodie credentials with the likes of smart waterside restaurants The Jetty and Upper Deck at Christchurch Harbour Hotel, while there is an annual seafood festival on Mudeford Quay.

For families school provision is good with Mudeford Junior judged ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted, while property choice includes old fishermen’s cottages, high-specification contemporary builds, marina developments and waterfront apartments. Comprehensive facilities are available at Christchurch, two miles west.

The Property

Forming part of a small, established development built by Colten Homes in approximately 1996, this attractive cottage-style property has been thoughtfully designed for the over-55s, providing comfortable and easily managed accommodation in a peaceful coastal setting.

On entering the property, a welcoming hallway provides useful storage and access to a ground floor cloakroom. The comfortable sitting and dining room offers an inviting space in which to relax or entertain, with a feature brick fireplace adding character and a door opening directly onto the rear garden.

The adjoining kitchen has been refitted with a range of cabinetry and integrated appliances, creating a practical and well-appointed space for everyday living.

Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, including a generously proportioned principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes. Both bedrooms enjoy a front-facing aspect and are served by a family bathroom with a bath and vanity storage.

Grounds & Gardens

Outside, the south-facing rear garden provides a delightful space to enjoy the sunshine. Predominantly paved for ease of maintenance, with established flower and shrub borders, it is ideally suited to al fresco dining, a morning coffee or simply unwinding after a day exploring the coast.

The property further benefits from allocated parking, with additional visitor parking available within the development.
