THIS beautiful Grade II listed riverside home with a private jetty and spectacular views across the Avon Valley, is on the market for £1,749,950.

Sitting on more than an acre, parts of this character property in Winkton, Christchurch, date back to around 1750. 

On the market with Spencers of the New Forest the property was extended significantly around 1900 to create the five-bedroom home we see today. 

Renovated over the past five years by the current owners, this stunning home maintains the integral character of the property while ensuring it provides for all the needs of a modern family.
