Description

This three-story townhouse, encompassing approximately 2120 sq ft, boasts captivating river views and includes fishing rights along with a mooring directly adjacent to the River Avon. Located centrally in Christchurch, this mid-1800s property has been cherished by the same family for decades and last changed hands in 1957. The ground floor was previously utilized as a chandlery, and planning permission is currently approved for reverting this space back to residential use (Application number 8/24/0756/COU). While the home requires modernisation, it presents an exceptional opportunity for redevelopment or enhancement (subject to necessary approvals). Access to the property is convenient via Bridge Street, with additional vehicular entry through an archway leading to a private driveway accommodating up to four vehicles. The garden, which is securely enclosed and features a substantial chalet and lawn extending toward the water’s edge, is distinct from the house itself. It's ideal for leisure activities, albeit with some winter flooding potential. While bats inhabit the roof during certain seasons and there are flood defenses in place—installed by the Environment Agency about three decades ago—the owners have reported no flooding of the house over that time frame. This property represents significant investment potential in a desirable riverside location.
