Set on a generous, secluded plot in Lower Parkstone, this three double-bedroom detached chalet bungalow offers substantial scope to create a modern family home. The house retains original character (notably an oak porch door and fitted wardrobes) and presents a comfortable living layout with a dual-aspect lounge that opens to the rear garden.
Practical features include a ground-floor principal bedroom, a first-floor dormer bedroom with eaves storage (potential for conversion), detached garage with power and light, and a block-paved driveway providing off-street parking for up to three cars. The private rear garden is level and enclosed, with patio, lawn, summer house and greenhouse — a strong asset for family life or entertaining.
The property requires updating and modernisation throughout; the vendor describes it as neat but in need of renovation. EPC and council tax bands are both rated E and tax is above average. Construction dates place the build in the late 1960s–1970s with cavity walls likely uninsulated (assumed), so buyers should budget for thermal upgrades, potential rewiring and general modernisation works.
Location is a key strength: close to Ashley Cross, local shops, cafes and railway links, with good schools nearby and easy access to Poole and Bournemouth town centres and local beaches. For buyers seeking a period property with scope to improve, extend or remodel (subject to consents), this plot and layout offer significant potential in a very desirable neighbourhood.
