Quiet, ground-floor living awaits in this well-kept two-bedroom apartment close to Highcliffe’s seafront and village amenities. The living room’s large picture window frames the communal gardens, while the fitted kitchen and generous storage in the entrance hall make day-to-day life straightforward and tidy. A recently updated shower room and gas central heating add comfort and convenience.
The development is mature and peaceful, with well-tended communal gardens and a single garage in a nearby block, useful for car owners or extra storage. The long lease (approximately 186 years remaining), peppercorn ground rent and an annual service charge of about £1,200 give buyers clarity on ongoing costs. Council Tax Band C is relatively affordable for the area.
Total accommodation is compact at around 478 sq ft, which suits downsizers or those seeking a coastal base rather than families needing substantial space. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and has double glazing; walls are cavity construction with assumed no added insulation, so buyers might consider insulation improvements to increase comfort and efficiency. Proximity to local schools, transport links and the New Forest adds lifestyle appeal for those who value easy access to outdoors and services.
