Description

A charming three story townhouse of about 2120 sq ft, with river views, fishing rights, a mooring and a gorgeous garden leading right to the edge of the River Avon. Situated in the heart of Christchurch town centre, the house was built in the mid 1800’s and offers massive potential for modernisation/improvement/redevelopment (subject to any necessary permissions).



The house has been in the family for decades and was last on the market in 1957. The ground floor reception room facing the road was for many years, a yacht chandlery which has now relocated. The owners have applied for planning permission to convert this back from commercial to residential (decision pending- application number 8/24/0756/COU). There is pedestrian access to the property from Bridge Street itself, whilst the vehicular access is under the archway to the left-hand side of the house which leads to the private driveway for up to four cars, The second pedestrian access to the house is via an external staircase. The property is now in need of modernising and offers massive potential for improvement. The garden to the property is separate to the main house and completely secure with a large garden chalet and lawn leading to the waters edge. The owner has moored a boat up to 6m in length on the river. IMPORTANT NOTES-
1. the garden can flood during the winter period.
2. The house itself is locally listed and the garden is in the Green Belt. There are bats in the roof of the main property mid Spring/mid Summer
3. There are flood defence barriers on the garden which will be shut by the environment agency if required. The flood defences and pumping station to the rear were installed by the EA about 30 years ago.
4. According to the owners, there has been no flooding of the house within the last 30 years and the flood defence works adequately

About Mitchells Estate Agents, Mudeford

Cambridge House, 112-114 Stanpit, Mudeford, Christchurch, BH23 3ND

Mitchells originated in Highcliffe in 1962 followed by a branch in New Milton in 1969 and more recently a branch in Mudeford in Spring 2015 to ensure comprehensive coverage of this beautiful stretch of the south coast.

Furthermore, the recent amalgamation with The London Office on St James Street in the heart of the prestigious St James' area of central London, now gives us a unique advantage over most of our competition and access to a very valuable source of wealthy London buyers looking to acquire property on the south coast.

At Mitchells, we are proud that our staff have the highest level of knowledge and experience in all aspects of Estate Agency and are members of the National Association of Estate Agents.

As well as our residential sales offices, Mitchells are one of the area's largest residential letting agents managing over 750 properties at our separate office. In addition, we have a commercial property division dealing with planning matters and land and new homes.

Here at Mitchells, we are completely independent and offer the complete property service. The key word within our organisation is 'professionalism' and this is evident in the way all our staff conduct themselves. We take pride in the service we provide, and we recognise that the future growth of our business is dependent on our reputation.
