Summary - 3 DOVER ROAD POOLE BH13 6DZ
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Private 1.25-acre plot near Sandbanks Beach, ideal for family living.
Five bedrooms plus guest suite above the garage
Set on a private 1.25-acre plot in Branksome Park, this substantial five-bedroom detached house combines generous family accommodation with mature, sheltered grounds close to Poole’s coastline. The ground floor offers three reception rooms, a bespoke country-style kitchen with central island and walk-in larder, plus practical utility space and direct internal access to a triple garage. A private guest suite above the garage provides flexible use as an annexe, home office or visitor accommodation.
The first floor principal suite benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite, while three further bedrooms also enjoy garden views and good storage. Underfloor heating, a mains gas boiler and double glazing (pre-2002) provide comfort, and the large terrace and sweeping lawn create easy indoor‑outdoor flow for entertaining or family life. Secure electric gates, a wide block‑paved driveway and ample off-road parking complete the exterior offering.
This home sits within an affluent, low-risk flood area and is conveniently close to Sandbanks Beach (about 2.5 miles), Poole Harbour, local marinas, shops and well-regarded state and independent schools. The plot’s privacy, woodland screening and size present scope for landscaping, garden projects or modest enhancement to suit contemporary tastes.
Practical considerations: the EPC is currently rated D and the property dates from the 1996–2002 period, with double glazing installed before 2002; some modernisation may be desirable to update finishes and services. Council tax is described as very expensive, reflecting the area and property scale.
