Summary - 18 EAST CLIFF WAY FRIARS CLIFF CHRISTCHURCH BH23 4EY
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Character family home with annexe, parking and gardens minutes from the seafront.
Detached 3-bed house plus adjoining self-contained 2-bed annexe
Set just moments from Friars Cliff seafront, this characterful detached cottage offers flexible family living across the main house plus an adjoining self-contained two-bedroom annexe. The layout suits multi‑generational households or owners who want additional rental income; both units have private outdoor space and separate entrances. A large block‑paved driveway provides generous off‑street parking for several vehicles.
The main house feels spacious with high ceilings, a vaulted kitchen/dining/living space that opens onto an east‑facing patio, and a principal bedroom with a Juliet balcony and en suite. The annexe mirrors that relaxed coastal feel with its own open-plan living area, garden and two upstairs bedrooms—together they create a practical five‑bedroom arrangement if reconfigured internally.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (install dates unknown), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The plot is mature and well planted, offering privacy and a sunny rear aspect ideal for outdoor dining and family life.
Buyers should note the house dates from the 1930s–1940s; while the property appears well maintained externally, older homes can carry age‑related maintenance needs and buyers may wish to budget for periodic updates. The annexe is currently a separate unit with no internal connecting door — conversion to a single family home would be straightforward but would require alteration. Council tax is described as expensive, and prospective purchasers should factor ongoing running costs into their plans.
