  • 10 Rook Hill Road, Friars Cliff, Christchurch, Dorset, BH23 4DZ PRICE: ‘OIEO’ £900,000
    10 Rook Hill Road, Friars Cliff, Christchurch, Dorset, BH23 4DZ PRICE: ‘OIEO’ £900,000 Rook Hill Road is arguably one of the best roads road in the heart of Friars Cliff with its award winning sandy beaches just yards away. A most attractive chalet style property, set in its own well tended grounds approaching a third of an acre. The property was one of the first homes to be built here and has been in the hands of the same family since new. Over recent times as nearby homes have been sold, they have been subject to much refurbishment or even complete re-build, creating much larger properties designed to personal tastes. We feel that the sale of this property would suit this purpose very well subject to the usual planning constraints. Christchurch town centre is under 3 miles away with its mainline train station giving access to London Waterloo in under two hours. Interest in this sale is likely to be very high and we strongly advise early inspection to avoid disappointment. Plot dimensions. Width 20m, 65ft. Depth 54.5m 178.9 ft. Total plot size just under 1/3 acre. Entrance into the property via a porch and a further obscure glazed door into the inner hallway. There is flexible ground floor accommodation, immediately to your right upon entry is a dual aspect dining room with parquet flooring and brick built open fire place. There is a ground floor double bedroom located on the front of the property, and a very pleasant triple aspect living room to the other side of the property and running front to back.
