Sitting on a large plot within one of the areas most favoured roads, this spacious detached home is in need of modernisation throughout and offers excellent further scope. A great opportunity, we strongly advise early enquiry!

This large detached home is set within one of Southbourne's most favoured roads and is ideally positioned giving easy access to the local areas facilities and scenery.

The popular Southbourne Grove is within walking distance (approx. 0.4 miles) and offers a wide range of shopping facilities, independent eateries/coffee shops and bus routes leading to Bournemouth and Christchurch town centres. Tuckton high street is also close by (approx. 0.5 miles) with the River Stour and Tuckton Tea Gardens just a few minutes further away. With Christchurch and Pokesdown train stations in close proximity, the property offers easy commutes to Southampton (approx. 30 mins) and London Waterloo (approx. 2 hours).

Southbourne’s cliff tops are just a 0.6 mile walk away, with the areas golden sandy beaches and promenade beneath, continuing to the beauty spot of Hengistbury Head in the East and along to Bournemouth and Sandbanks to the West.

Being in need of modernisation throughout, the property presents a very rare opportunity to personalise a home to taste within this sought after location. Furthermore, for purchasers seeking a larger project or home to extend, the high pitched roof space offers scope for conversion, and the generous plot the property occupies offers huge scope to extend either to the side and/or rear (all subject to planning permission).

Without further development/extension the property already offers spacious accommodation which totals over 1900 square feet and retains a good deal of original features, such as stained glass windows, a grand period staircase, wood panelling and picture rails.

The ground floor is served by a spacious hallway, and period staircase leading to the first floor with a WC set beneath, and doors giving access to all principle ground floor rooms.

There are two formal reception rooms. One overlooks the front of property via a bay window with the second larger reception overlooking and giving direct access on to the rear garden.
A third reception (breakfast room) leads through to the kitchen which has a utility room and store. In need of modernisation, this area could be updated in its traditional layout, or alternatively 'knocked through' to create a large kitchen/diner which would measure in excess of 25'.

The first floor is served by a generous landing which features a large stained glass window above the stairs and gives access to all first floor bedrooms.

All four bedrooms are generous with the fourth bedroom still making a comfortable double room. These are served by a bathroom and separate WC which could be 'knocked through' to create a large family bathroom, with the master bedroom also having plenty of room to create an en-suite within (all subject to building regulation approval).

Outside, a good sized frontage sets the property well back from the road with mature shrubbery offering a good deal of seclusion. A driveway provides off road parking for several cars and leads to an attached garage which is served by double doors.

Measuring in excess of 100' in depth and benefitting from a southerly orientation, the rear garden is a particular feature of the property and a size that is hard to find within the local area. There is plenty of room to accommodate every family’s needs and more than enough space to build/install a large summer house, home office or Gym. With landscaping it could be a magnificent outside space!

A wonderful home offering a huge wealth of opportunity, viewing is a must for this fantastic property. Please call us for further information, and to arrange your internal inspection.[use Contact Agent Button].
