Fishermans Bank, Christchurch, Dorset, BH23

A truly magnificent waterside residence of circa. 4000 sqft, occupying one of the largest plots on the exclusive Fisherman’s Bank and fronting the tranquil waters of Christchurch Harbour. Arguably one of the finest homes on this stretch of the water with two slipways and a private jetty, the house was built in 1989 in a traditional style but with all the conveniences of modern day living and is presented in immaculate condition throughout. Offered with no forward chain this stunning home must be viewed to be appreciated.

Fisherman’s Bank is one of the most exclusive addresses in Christchurch very well situated just a short walk from the picturesque Mudeford quay and award winning beaches. This stunning home enjoys spectacular views from the principal rooms over the calm waters of Christchurch Harbour, down to Mudeford Spit with its colourful beach huts, across to Hengistbury Head and over to Stanpit Marsh. The ever-changing views are mesmerising and the cleverly laid out accommodation takes full advantage of the south-west facing vista. The house enjoys en-suite facilities to all the first floor bedrooms with wonderful open plan living space perfectly complimented by formal reception rooms, a roof top look out, wine cellar and ancillary bedroom suite over the garaging. A real ‘once in a lifetime opportunity.’
