This extended three-bedroom semi-detached house on Wakely Road offers roomy family living with practical, low-maintenance outdoor space. The ground floor’s open-plan lounge and modern kitchen/diner — complete with a central island and French doors — create a bright hub for daily life and entertaining. A separate study/home office adds useful flexibility for remote working or play space.
Upstairs are three generous double bedrooms, the main with an en suite shower room, plus a family bathroom and separate WC. Built in the mid-20th century and retaining a solid feel, the home benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and FTTP broadband — useful for streaming, working from home, and fast connectivity.
Outside, the paved and gravelled front garden could be adapted to create off-street parking. The rear garden is designed for low upkeep with artificial lawn, patios, a timber shed and two brick-built storage rooms — practical for busy families who prefer outdoor space without heavy maintenance.
Practical considerations: the property sits in a very deprived area classification with above-average local crime rates, which buyers should weigh against the home’s value and proximity to schools, shops and good transport links to Bournemouth, Poole and nearby towns. The house is freehold with an Energy Performance rating of C and council tax described as affordable.
