This detached three-bedroom bungalow sits on a large plot in a mature Bournemouth suburb, offering single-storey living with off-road parking, garage, car port and a conservatory. The layout is traditional with a generous lounge, kitchen/breakfast room, separate dining/bedroom and practical utility spaces. Double glazing and gas central heating are in place, making the home comfortable now while it offers potential to update to modern tastes.
Strengths include the sizeable rear garden with patio and greenhouse, a broad driveway with through access to the garage, and a convenient single-floor plan ideal for those seeking to downsize without losing space. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent; flood risk is low. The property is freehold and in a comfortable neighbourhood near schools and local amenities.
Buyers should note some clear renovation and maintenance items. The garage and adjoining workshop/storage have pitched asbestos roofs — a liability that will need professional handling. The kitchen and some internal decor are dated (1980s fittings and older carpets), and only one full bathroom plus a separate WC serve the three bedrooms. The bungalow was constructed mid-20th century (c.1950–66) and double-glazing install dates are unknown; a full survey is recommended to identify any further works.
This home will suit a downsizer or family seeking a single-storey property with scope to modernise, or an investor looking for steady rental demand in a city-suburb location. The large plot and straightforward layout give good potential for reconfiguration or upgrading, subject to checks on asbestos and any required permissions.
