This property is a charming thatched cottage located in Bockhampton, Christchurch, Dorset. The property benefits from a sizable garden and is presented in good condition throughout.

The location is a key strength. While slightly outside of Christchurch town centre, it benefits from proximity to good schools such as Burton Church of England Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Sopley Primary School (also rated ‘Good’). The relative quietude of the location is likely attractive to families, while the proximity to train stations at Christchurch, Hinton Admiral, and Pokesdown provides good transport links.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be well-maintained and in good condition. The interior is presented in a traditional style with character features, such as exposed beams and fireplaces. There is no evidence to suggest that the property is in need of significant renovation. It is a period property that appears to have been sympathetically updated.

The property boasts a substantial garden, including a patio area, lawn, and a pond. The presence of mature trees and well-maintained landscaping adds to its appeal.

Considering the list price of £900,000, the average price in the area (£394,494), and the average price per square foot (£427), this property appears to be priced at the higher end of the market. However, the unique character of the property, its good condition, sizeable garden, and convenient location justify the higher price compared to average properties in the area. The lack of plot size information in the listing prevents a more precise assessment of the price per square foot of land. The lack of sqft information for the property itself also makes it difficult to perform a precise comparison with the average price per sqft for the area. However, given the property type and the images provided, the property is likely to be larger than the average property in the area.

The property is likely to appeal to buyers seeking a character property in a peaceful yet well-connected location.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
