- The three-bedroom Dorset home comes complete with a £400,000 private beach hut and a 28ft motor yacht
- The property is a short crossing from Mudeford Spit, home to the most expensive beach huts in the country
- The property, beach hut and boat are selling for a total of £1.7million and offers a change of lifestyle for buyers
A retired couple are selling the ultimate ready-made lifestyle – by putting their harbourside home on the market with their £400,000 beach hut and motor yacht thrown in.
For £1.7million buyers can bag themselves a three-bedroom luxury property, a sought after beach hut and a nearly nine metre boat.
The vendors, who aren’t being named, have decided on a ‘change of direction’ as they enter their senior years and want to move from their luxury home on Christchurch Harbour, Dorset.
The three bedroom townhouse has its own mooring where the couple keep their 28ft motorboat.
The quayside property is just a short crossing from Mudeford Spit, which is home of the most expensive beach huts in the country.
One of those is a three year old cabin that sleeps six people and comes with a lounge and kitchen area owned by the vendors.
As they were looking to off-load all three luxury assets at the same time, they came up with the idea of offering the lot for one price.

Andy Denison, the estate agent selling the unique package, believes the offer will suit a wealthy buyer looking to step into an immediate change of lifestyle.
Mr Denison said: ‘It is the ultimate lifestyle package. The dream.
‘Our vendors are a retired couple who are still active but have decided they want a change in direction in life.
‘They are selling their quayside townhouse that has its own ten metre boat mooring.
‘They have their own motor boat which they have had a lot of fun out of. They just thought that they would have had to sell that anyway when they move out of the house so why not include it in the house sale?
‘They have had a beach hut at Mudeford Spit for years. They went there a lot with their family but just haven’t had much use for it recently.
‘So they made the decision to sell that as well and just came up with the idea of packaging the house, the boat and the beach hut together under one all in price.
‘Quite often, when we sell a harbourside property to a London buyer they ask at the time where they can buy a boat from. With this sale they won’t need to look very far.
‘You can picture the ready-made lifestyle the new owners will walk into.
‘They can walk out of their home, jump in their boat and set off for the Isle of Wight for some lunch and then stop off for the night at their beach hut and head for home the next day.’
