"A rarely available substantial Victorian house with a secluded garden and within walking distance of Ashley Cross. The property is arranged as two self contained apartments but conversion back to a single dwelling would be possible. Sandbanks beaches, Poole and Bournemouth centres are also nearby
Currently arranged as a four bedroom two floor apartment on the first and second floors and a two bedroom two/three reception room apartment on the ground floor. This property could suit a large or extended family requiring annexe type accommodation.
Features and accommodation * each flat has its own gas central heating boiler *there are operable fireplaces and many original features with high ceilings in both flats *good size rear garden offering seclusion *convenient location within walking distance of the Parkstone train station, local shops and bistros in Ashley Cross *Many of the windows have been replaced with UPVC double glazing
Fully glazed and original entrance porch measuring 15'7 x 7'4 incorporating a glazed roof and some ornate glass on two sides. There is a concealed bin store cupboard and a small flagstone floor. From here there are private doors to both apartments. It would take very little work in our opinion to merge the two apartments and regain the house as a single dwelling if required.
