This two‑bedroom Victorian semi‑detached house on Bennett Road offers a practical, move‑in ready layout ideal for first‑time buyers. The ground floor features two reception rooms and a modern kitchen, while upstairs houses two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property benefits from gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and a characterful bay window to the front.
Outside, the front block‑paved drive provides off‑road parking for one car and the rear garden is enclosed and low‑maintenance with patio slabs. Local shops, frequent buses and Charminster High Street are all within easy walking distance, and several well‑rated primary and secondary schools are nearby — helpful for growing households.
Notable positives include the chain‑free sale and broadly neutral presentation, meaning little immediate expense is required to occupy. There is straightforward scope to add value through small cosmetic improvements or energy upgrades. Buyers should note the property was built c.1900–1929 with cavity walls likely uninsulated and the glazing installed before 2002, so loft or wall insulation and window upgrades would improve comfort and running costs.
The location sits within a cosmopolitan, inner‑city neighbourhood with a student presence; this brings good local amenities and public transport but may mean occasional evening noise. Overall this is a compact, characterful home that suits those seeking an affordable entry onto the Bournemouth market or a buy‑to‑let with modest refurbishment potential.
