Description

This expansive 5/6 bedroom home offers significant renovation and investment potential, set in the desirable Boscombe Overcliff area, just a stone's throw from the coast. The property is situated on a large plot with ample outdoor space and has sea views that can be further enhanced. With several spacious reception rooms, including a multifunctional room suitable for an office or additional bedroom, the layout supports various configurations to suit modern living needs. The well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room provides a solid foundation but could benefit from contemporary updates to maximize its usability. A generous first floor hosts four double bedrooms, each with unique features that present opportunities for cosmetic upgrades while retaining the character of the home. The extensive garden includes two garages and outbuildings that offer potential for conversion into an annexe or additional living space (subject to planning permission), which could significantly increase property value. The tiki bar area adds charm and enhances outdoor entertaining possibilities, although some landscaping may be required to realize its full potential. Gas central heating and UPVC double glazing are in place, making this home both functional and comfortable while you explore renovation ideas aimed at capitalizing on its prime location. This property not only serves as a lovely family home but also stands as an attractive investment opportunity with scope for future enhancements.
