This single-storey detached bungalow on Sandbanks Peninsula sits less than 100m from the award-winning sandy beach, offering rare coastal convenience for downsizers seeking single-level living. The property is chain-free and freehold, presented for the first time in 57 years and set on a sizable, level plot with gated private driveway, garage and carport.
Internally the home offers three double bedrooms, a southeast-facing open-plan lounge and dining room with doors onto the garden, a principal en-suite and a separate family shower room. At approximately 1,589 sq ft, the layout is generous and adaptable, with real potential to update, extend or rebuild subject to planning (STPP) to create a contemporary seaside residence.
Buyers should note the property needs renovation throughout; modernisation and structural changes will be required to achieve the full potential. There are restrictive covenants on the title that may limit some works. Practical considerations include a fairly high local crime rate and relatively expensive council tax; flood risk is low and utilities include mains gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown).
This is a clear opportunity for downsizers or owners seeking a one-level coastal base who value proximity to beaches, harbour amenities and local sailing clubs. If you want a renovated or rebuilt home in one of the area’s most sought-after locations, this plot and bungalow provide a strong starting point—subject to covenant and planning constraints.
