Description
This property undoubtedly delivers a vast opportunity to secure one of the most desired spots in Highcliffe. The plot the property resides on is one of the largest in the road and thanks to the elevated position it comes with uninterrupted panoramic sea views to the Isle of Wight in the East and along the coast past Mudeford Quay and Spit, Hengistbury Head and onto the Purbecks in the West.
Highcliffe is quickly becoming one of the most favoured locations along the Southern Coastline. The property puts you in the heart of Highcliffe, just a few minutes walk away from the diverse High Street with its wide selection of independent shops, bistros, and restaurants. There is a local butchers, artisan bakery and convenience shops ensuring you have everything you need. The Chewton Bunny Nature Reserve and clifftop is a stone's throw away which provides easy sloped access to the award winning beach and a wonderful 2-mile walk to Avon Beach and Mudeford Quay.
The prestigious Grade I Highcliffe Castle with its ornamental gardens and fascinating history to include at one stage being the home of Mr Selfridge, is within a mile of the property along with Highcliffe’s premier Golf course and the world-renowned Chewton Glen Hotel and Spa.
Planning consent was previously obtained for a circa 4000 sq ft home, (planning now lapsed). However, we believe that due to other developments of some spectacular homes along the road that a more substantial design could be obtained subject to a revised application giving you the opportunity to create your dream home in this superb location. Further information about previous plans can be discussed directly with the agent.
There is currently a Detached Chalet style property residing on the plot, presented in good order throughout offering you the chance to enjoy the location and current property whilst designing that bespoke home. The property boasts some 2100 sq ft of internal space with a large driveway and parking for multiple vehicles.
The property has a large entrance hall with wood flooring running through and extending throughout the lower hallways. The kitchen/diner is to the right, generous in size spanning nearly the full depth of the property. The kitchen is set to the back with tiled flooring, laminate worktops flow around both sides and to the rear with a sink inset below a large aspect. There is a selection of base and eye-line units with space for a Range Style cooker and integrated dishwasher. The kitchen opens to a utility room at the rear of the property with all the plumbing for a washing machine and dryer and a second sink with storage units. The utility also opens to the private rear garden.
The dining area has been specifically set to the front to make the most of the stunning focal point across the green onto the sea beyond. It’s a good size with plenty of room for a large family dining table.
Opposite the kitchen/diner is the lounge, well proportioned with a feature fireplace and benefiting from a similar view.
The ground floor has a very spacious bedroom with a dual aspect, fitted wardrobes and finished in a neutral decor with carpet underfoot. It has a large ensuite bathroom consisting of a paneled bath, separate shower, pedestal basin and WC.
There is also a further reception room set to the rear with views across the garden and a secondary bathroom with shower over bath, pedestal basin and WC.
The first floor is where the main bedroom resides to make the most of the impressive view along with access to a large balcony. From here you can let your mind start to envisage the possibilities that could be created to frame those uninterrupted views.
There are two further double bedrooms on the first floor along with another WC.
Thanks to the extensive plot the rear garden doesn’t disappoint either, an enviable space to enjoy with close proximity to the coastline it enjoys the sun throughout the day. Laid mainly to lawn with a small patio for alfresco dining, it is low maintenance.
We feel honoured to be able to offer this property to the market and can assure you that viewing is an absolute must to fully appreciate this prime location and the unique opportunity that it provides to create your dream home!
