Set on a prestigious tree-lined road in BH5, this 1930s detached home offers over 2,890 sq ft of characterful family accommodation across three floors. With six generous double bedrooms, multiple reception rooms and a large kitchen/dining/breakfast space, the layout suits a growing or multigenerational family who value space, natural light and easy access to Southbourne Grove and the beaches.
The property’s strengths are immediate: a sunny, secluded south-facing rear garden, an extensive ‘in and out’ driveway with space for large vehicles, and a sizable garage/workshop with rear access. Interiors include a bright open-plan living/family room with a lantern skylight, sliding doors to the garden, and bay windows to the principal bedrooms — features that create an airy, sociable ground floor and pleasant bedrooms with storage and eaves space on the top floor.
Practical considerations are straightforward and should be factored in: council tax sits in band F (expensive), the EPC is currently TBC, and the house reflects long-term family occupation — some areas will benefit from updating to suit modern tastes. The multi-storey layout and stairs mean the home is less suitable for limited mobility without adaptation. Crime is average for the area and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Overall this is a rare, substantial detached family home in a coastal setting with excellent local schools, woodland walks and transport links. The garage/workshop and generous plot offer clear potential for ancillary work-from-home space or partial reconfiguration, while the garden and parking provide immediate lifestyle appeal for families and buyers wanting space close to Bournemouth’s coast.
