Description
THE SITUATION
The Friars Cliff area comprises leafy avenues and closes of modern family homes. It is a favourite with families or seeking a relaxed lifestyle thanks to the easy access to local sandy beaches and nearby amenities. These sweeping bays of gently sloping sand offer safe swimming, stunning views over Christchurch Bay, and are edged with pastel coloured beach huts and trees.
The nearby coastal town of Christchurch is a thriving high street of quality independents, plus an excellent selection of bistros, cafes, pubs and restaurants, among them Captain’s Club Hotel and The King’s Arms. Christchurch is also home to the immensely popular Christchurch Food Festival.
Friars Cliff also offers close proximity to the village of Highcliffe, which is ideal for those searching for a relaxed yet smart seaside lifestyle. A high street of useful independent shops includes a bakery, family butcher and gourmet grocery.
Highcliffe also nurtures a foodie reputation with an annual food festival and tasty selection of cafes, gastropubs and restaurants. Leisure facilities include Highcliffe Castle Golf Club while the New Forest lies just to the north.
THE PROPERTY
A delightful, bright, and airy entrance hallway with a full-height vaulted ceiling spanning three floors, designed to flood the space with natural light. The flagstone flooring extends seamlessly throughout, providing access to all ground floor accommodation.
Off the right-hand side of the hallway is a practical utility and boot room, thoughtfully fitted with cupboard and storage space, as well as a convenient bench. This area also provides access to the ground floor WC.
At the rear of the property lies a spectacular ‘L’-shaped kitchen/dining/family room, beautifully finished with engineered wood flooring throughout. Wall-to-wall sliding doors open onto the rear garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. A cosy snug area features a log burner with a charming brick surround, creating a warm and inviting focal point.
The kitchen area features a vast array of custom-built, two-tone wall, floor, and drawer units, complemented by a striking waterfall island that not only provides additional storage but also includes a practical breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, single oven with warming drawer, combination microwave, five-ring induction hob, and space for an American-style fridge freezer.
From the entrance hallway, stairs rise to the first-floor part-galleried landing, which offers a large window with a front-facing aspect. This space provides access to three generously sized double bedrooms, each offering ample room for furniture and storage.
A stunning four-piece family bathroom suite, featuring a walk-in shower cubicle with stylishly tiled walls and gold fittings, alongside an elegant freestanding bath complemented by a statement floor-mounted tap. The room is finished with partly tiled floors and walls.
The primary bedroom is a standout feature of the home, with a bright and airy full-height window to the front aspect. It also includes a walk-through dressing area, featuring a range of fitted wardrobes and drawers. This leads into a delightful his-and-hers en-suite, each side equipped with a walk-in shower with waterfall showerheads, a fitted WC, hand wash basin, and a large backlit mirror, enhancing the room’s luxurious feel.
The second floor features two spacious bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, both fitted with Velux balcony windows. Currently utilised as an office and gym, these rooms are served by a contemporary wet room-style shower room, finished with tiled floors and walls.
