Set across three floors, this 1930s detached family home offers nearly 1,500 sq ft of versatile living in a quiet, well-regarded Bournemouth neighbourhood. Living spaces include an 18ft lounge with a log burner and French doors to the private south-facing garden, a separate dining room and an 18ft kitchen/breakfast room arranged for everyday family life and entertaining.
The plot is a major draw: a generous 75ft south-facing rear garden, a 24ft detached garage and a long private driveway providing plenty of off-road parking. The house has four bedrooms, an en-suite to the master, a family bathroom and WCs on both ground and first floors — practical for busy households and visitors.
Practical details to note: the property benefits from double glazing installed after 2002 and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators, and it sits outside identified flood risk zones. Some fabric and thermal improvements are possible — the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated — so buyers seeking lower running costs may want to budget for insulation works or other upgrades.
Positioned within the catchment of several well-regarded schools and a short drive from coastal amenities, this character-filled home will suit families wanting space, a sunny garden and scope to personalise over time. The chain situation is favourable, with vendors suited, which may help a smooth move.
