A rare, substantial four-bedroom chalet-style detached home set on approximately one-third of an acre with south-westerly aspect grounds and wide views towards Poole’s Inner Harbour. The house offers over 3,000 sq ft of tastefully presented accommodation across multiple reception rooms, a newly fitted kitchen, and generous private gardens — ideal for family life and entertaining.
Internally the layout is flexible: a 24-foot dual-aspect lounge with open brick fireplace, separate dining/family room, and a 23-foot kitchen/breakfast room alongside a further kitchen space. All four double bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, and there are practical additions including a utility, cloakroom and a versatile playroom/study for home working or hobbies.
Externally the property features a c.1,400 sq ft paved sun terrace, extensive mature garden, off-street parking and double garage. A detached brick outbuilding offers storage or conversion potential subject to consents. The home is offered chain free, has recent redecoration, new flooring, gas central heating and predominantly double glazing installed post-2002.
Important practical points: the house was originally constructed in the 1950–66 period with timber-frame elements and partial insulation (assumed), so buyers should consider energy-efficiency improvements. Council tax is described as expensive. While the property is newly renovated, the open fire, age of construction and outbuilding conversion would benefit from professional inspection and any required consents.
Location highlights include highly rated local schools, low crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus just nine minutes to Hamworthy Beach and a short walk to Lytchett Bay Nature Reserve — a strong proposition for families seeking space, privacy and coastal access.
