Location

Furzen Lodge is located in Western Avenue, which falls within the Branksome Park Conservation Area, one of the most exclusive enclaves of Poole extending to some 350 acres with around 300 dwellings. It is known for its important homes set is spacious grounds and it is a few minutes' drive from Canford Cliffs Village with the Sandbanks Peninsula a short distance beyond.

The Blue Flag beaches at Branksome Chine are also very popular, located off The Avenue with the picturesque Branksome Park Woods directly opposite. Westbourne and Bournemouth Town Centre are within easy reach by car and offer excellent opportunities for shopping and leisure. The larger area is well catered for by way of golf clubs, sailing clubs and water sports of all kinds.

The Property

Furzen Lodge is believed to date from the 1920s. It extends to around 3000 sq ft, has a traditional appearance and it could be considered typical of a Branksome Park property. It has been well-maintained by the current owners but would now potentially benefit from remodelling and updating.

However, the property is not listed by the local planning authority as a positive contributor to the conservation area which leads us to believe it might be suitable for complete redevelopment subject to the necessary consents, which cannot be guaranteed. Potential purchasers are advised to seek independent advice on all such matters.

The plot extends to approximately one acre with a sunny aspect and an impressive frontage of around 109 ft.

The current dwelling is located in a gently elevated position behind electric gates enclosing a brick paved drive.

The rear garden is tiered with a patio leading to large areas of lawn with mature trees and shrubs.

A woodland area can be found at the furthest extent of the grounds.
