This well-presented two-bedroom end-of-terrace bungalow in Brompton Court offers low‑level living designed for independent retirement living. Built in 2002 and refurbished in 2017, the property provides spacious single‑storey accommodation with a bright living room overlooking communal landscaped gardens and a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances.
Both bedrooms are doubles with fitted wardrobes and the bathroom includes a walk-in shower, making the layout practical and age‑friendly. Off‑street parking and communal facilities — including landscaped grounds, communal lounges, an on‑site restaurant, a chapel and 24‑hour emergency support — add convenience and peace of mind for residents.
Important practical facts: the home is leasehold with around 100 years remaining, and the annual service charge is high at £8,880; council tax is also described as expensive. The wider area is mixed — close to Bournemouth town centre and the seafront, but classified locally as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with higher crime levels and signs of area deprivation, which may affect long‑term quietness and security.
Overall, this bungalow suits a buyer seeking a comfortable, low‑maintenance retirement base with onsite support and communal amenities. It offers immediate move‑in condition internally, but be mindful of ongoing running costs, the leasehold tenure and local area characteristics when assessing suitability.
