Set on one of Talbot Woods’ finest plots, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers characterful living with clear scope to modernise. Period features such as bay and sash-style windows, exposed-brick inglenook and timber details give the home strong architectural charm, while three reception rooms provide flexible family space. The southerly private garden and huge plot create excellent outdoor space for children and potential extension (subject to planning).
Practical strengths include off-road parking, a spacious garage and mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators. The layout already supports a generous family lifestyle: entrance hall with feature staircase, living room opening to the garden, dining room with bay window, kitchen and breakfast room, pantry and ground-floor WC, plus five good-sized bedrooms upstairs (one en suite) and a family bathroom with separate shower.
Buyers should note the house requires updating and remodelling to reach contemporary standards; the vendor’s particulars and agents’ notes state heating, mains and appliances have not been tested. The EPC is rated D, and some routine maintenance (roof moss) has been observed. These factors make the property well suited to a purchaser looking to add value through sympathetic refurbishment or extend on the substantial plot.
This location will particularly appeal to families seeking proximity to excellent nearby schools, leisure facilities and Bournemouth town centre. For those wanting a period home with sizeable gardens and strong long-term potential, this offers rare scope in a premier neighbourhood, balanced by realistic immediate improvement needs.
