Set in one of Highcliffe’s most sought-after streets, this four-bedroom detached chalet bungalow offers a bright, versatile family home within easy walking distance of the town centre and beach. The living/dining room is triple-aspect with a bay of full-height glazing, a log burner and French doors that open onto a wraparound patio and large, private south-facing garden sheltered by mature shrubs and woodland. Off-road parking and an integral single garage add practical convenience.
The ground floor provides two double bedrooms and a modern shower room, while stairs lead to two first-floor bedrooms including a generous principal with balcony overlooking the garden. The kitchen delivers good storage and stone-effect worktops with integrated oven and gas hob. Practical details include mains gas central heating served by a boiler and radiators, double glazing and an EPC rated C (current 72, potential 81).
Buyers should note a few material facts: the property dates from the 1950s–60s and the double glazing was fitted before 2002, so some updating may be desirable. Council Tax sits at Band E (above average), and while many local schools are strong, a few nearby schools have lower Ofsted ratings. Overall this is a comfortable, well-located home with scope for cosmetic improvement or selective refurbishment to increase value and comfort.
