"A rare opportunity to purchase a beautiful, character filled home, nestled on a private and secluded plot of 0.3 of an acre, just over half a mile from Bournemouth Pier. No forward chain.

This charming, detached residence was built in 1934 and retains many of its original features. The property has been lovingly maintained by the current owners who have been resident for the last 25 years.

Three years ago the owners completely renovated the house, replacing most of the windows with aluminium double glazing, replacing the heating system with a new boiler and all new radiators. The Glowworm combi boiler was last serviced in February 2025.

Upon entering the property through the original timber and stained glass door, you find yourself in a welcoming entrance hall with original oak herringbone flooring and a large stained glass window, which floods the space with natural light. The Dorset curved coving is a particular feature of this 1930s home. A useful storage cupboard is located under the stairs beside a door leading out to the patio.

Original doors lead to the triple aspect sitting room with a 2 year old log burner, the dining room with original wood panelling and open fireplace, and the modern fitted kitchen. The kitchen, which was refitted in 2015, offers a range of base and eye level units, a double butler sink, space for a larder style fridge freezer, space for a dishwasher, and a freestanding 5 ring range cooker.

A utility room leads from the kitchen and benefits from a butler sink, space and plumbing for a washing machine, space for a tumble dryer, and a door which opens onto the terrace.

A useful ground floor shower room is located at the back of the utility room and comprises a walk in shower unit, a pedestal wash hand basin and WC.

A snug completes the ground floor accommodation and features a chimney that could be opened up to offer an open fire or log burner if desired.

An original oak staircase leads to a galleried landing with doors to all first floor bedrooms, and access to the balcony. The entire first floor boasts the original floorboards.

The primary bedroom also gives access to the balcony, and benefits from a range of floor to ceiling Lamco fitted wardrobes featuring soft close doors, with faux double doors leading to an en suite shower room which was created in 2022. The stylish shower room offers a walk in shower with rain shower attachment, vanity unit with storage under, a WC and a heated towel rail.

A family bathroom which was replaced 3 years ago, comprises a modern white suite, with bath and rain head shower over, wash hand basin and WC. An additional WC next door completes the first floor accommodation.

A loft hatch is located on the landing and leads to a large, boarded loft with two Velux window, and a pull down loft ladder for access.

Outside to the rear, the mature garden offers a great degree of privacy with steps leading from the patio to the level lawn, with dining area and various outbuildings. There are two further dining areas on either side of the property.

Wooden gates give access to the driveway, where there is access to both garages, as well as space for multiple vehicles.
