Summary - 1, IVY ROAD, WIMBORNE BH21 1RT
3 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Spacious single‑storey home with large plot and loft conversion potential.
No onward chain; freehold detached bungalow
Set on a large, wrap‑around plot in a popular Wimborne suburb, this double‑fronted 3‑bed bungalow offers immediate occupation with no onward chain and substantial scope to personalise. The layout is traditionally arranged with separate sitting and dining rooms, a dual‑aspect kitchen leading to a conservatory‑style sun room, and a large detached garage with driveway access. Mature hedging and fruit trees create a private, sheltered garden ideal for children or vegetable beds.
The property retains period features such as high skirtings, picture rails and Dorset barrel ceilings in places, giving a solid starting point for a sympathetic renovation. The generous loft/roof space and the plot size present realistic extension or conversion potential, subject to planning consents (STPP), for those who want to create extra bedrooms or open‑plan living.
Buyers should note this bungalow requires updating throughout. Heating is electric and the description states the property is not connected to gas; cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated and double glazing was fitted pre‑2002. There are polystyrene tiles in parts of the bathroom and behind some storage that the current owners plan to remove prior to sale. There is also some internal cracking in the dining room believed to be decorative rather than structural.
This is a practical purchase for families seeking good local schools and easy access to Broadstone and Wimborne amenities, or for renovators/investors targeting value‑adding work. The freehold, chain‑free position and large plot make it particularly appealing to buyers wanting to extend or adapt a single‑storey home in a very affluent, low‑crime area.
