Property description & features

  • Two Double Bedrooms

  • No Chain
Here's a unique opportunity to purchase a piece of local history! Stourcliffe House was originally built in 1865 in the Italian Stucco Villa style and has since been subdivided into four separate homes. It is situated on a quiet street, within easy reach of both Southbourne and Christchurch, and just a short walk from the beautiful Seafield Gardens and the stunning clifftops and beaches at Southbourne.

We are delighted to offer for sale this deceptively spacious two-bedroom cottage, which features two separate reception rooms, a 15-foot kitchen breakfast room, a ground floor WC, two double bedrooms, a large bathroom, an attractive walled garden, a garage, and off-road parking. This property must be viewed to appreciate its many qualities. There is no chain.

Approaching the property, you will find a generously sized front garden with a winding pathway and mature flower borders leading up to the front porch and entrance. The front door opens into the dining room, which boasts an original sash window facing the front. The inner hallway features a turning staircase to the first floor with storage underneath, and doors leading to the kitchen and rear reception room.

The 15-foot kitchen breakfast room is fitted with a modern range of wall and base units, complemented by contrasting work surfaces. There is space for appliances as well as a small table and chairs. The rear door leads to a lobby with an enclosed cloakroom and another door leading to the garden. The cozy 14-foot reception room features a charming fireplace and double doors that open to the garden.

On the landing, you will find two good-sized double bedrooms. The main bedroom, located at the rear, includes a range of fitted sliding door wardrobes, while the front bedroom features an original sash window. The bathroom is particularly spacious, accommodating a separate shower cubicle, bath, WC, basin, storage cupboard, and boiler cupboard, along with a window to the rear.

Access to the loft is available from the landing.

Frontage: Large front garden  
Rear Garden: Approximately 30 feet in length, with a lovely secluded and sunny aspect. The walled rear garden features a brick-paved patio, a well-manicured lawn, and mature borders.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 13, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
