This property presents a noteworthy development opportunity situated on Christchurch Road in the lively town of Boscombe. With planning permission already secured for the creation of two residential flats above and behind existing office premises, this site is primed for transformation.
The proposed layout includes a one-bedroom ground-floor flat featuring its own entrance and a private garden. Additionally, plans encompass a one-bedroom duplex flat that spans two floors (first and second), which boasts a balcony to enhance the living experience. Each unit has been thoughtfully designed to cater to modern living standards, making them appealing options for potential renters or homeowners.
Located along Boscombe High Street, this property benefits from proximity to an extensive range of local amenities, including shops, restaurants, and cafes. The sandy shores of Boscombe beach are less than a mile away, further enhancing the location's desirability. Christchurch Road is characterized by its vibrant atmosphere and strong transport connections, which are integral for attracting both residents and businesses.
Boscombe itself is a charming seaside suburb located just east of Bournemouth’s town center. The area showcases diverse architectural styles, from Victorian buildings like the Royal Arcade to the Art Deco influences seen along Boscombe Pier. Public transportation options are readily accessible at nearby Pokesdown and Bournemouth stations.
For those interested in recreational activities, Kings Park is within walking distance and offers facilities such as an athletic track, skate park, recreation areas, and a cricket field with a café.
In terms of investment potential, new 999-year leases will be established for Flats 2 & 3 at 718 Christchurch Road upon completion of the development. This prospect not only allows for future capital growth but also contributes to addressing housing demand in this thriving community.
