Description

This chalet bungalow presents a unique opportunity in the desirable Highcliffe area, just a short walk from the stunning Highcliffe Castle and its beach. Nestled on a generous plot, the property boasts significant potential for enhancement or extension, pending planning approval. The residence is offered with no forward chain, facilitating a smooth acquisition process. Accessed via a spacious brick-paved driveway designed for multiple vehicles, the home features a lounge that spans from front to back, enhanced by patio doors that open onto the rear garden. A seamless transition flows into the dining area, which is partially open to the kitchen equipped with wall and base units, integrated appliances, and a convenient breakfast bar. A door leads from here to the private rear patio space. The ground floor accommodates the principal bedroom with ample fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room, as well as a cloakroom for guest convenience. Upstairs are two further well-sized double bedrooms featuring fitted wardrobes and a family bathroom completing this level. Externally, residents will appreciate a detached garage along with a carport featuring an electric garage door. The garden serves as an attractive highlight of this property, offering extensive patio space that transitions into a well-tended lawn surrounded by mature greenery. Positioned within easy reach of Highcliffe village's array of amenities including cafes and shops—and just over 3 miles from scenic New Forest National Park—this property is particularly appealing for families due to its inclusion within sought-after school catchment areas. With its substantial potential for renovation or expansion in a highly coveted location, this property represents both an inviting home and an astute investment opportunity.
