Description

This detached bungalow offers a remarkable opportunity for renovation and investment, set on a generous plot with wrap-around gardens and a sizable detached garage. The property is sold with no forward chain, presenting an ideal canvas for those looking to create their dream home or capitalize on its investment potential. Inside, the bungalow retains several original features that provide character, such as high skirting boards, picture rails, and distinctive Dorset barrel ceilings in select rooms. While it currently has electric heating and is connected to mains electricity and drainage, it does not have gas service. The roof space is accessible via a pull-down ladder, opening up possibilities for further expansion (subject to necessary planning permissions). The layout includes three bedrooms, each with its unique outlook: the main bedroom overlooks the side garden and comes equipped with fitted furniture; the second bedroom features storage cupboards with views toward the front; while the third is a spacious single room offering views of the rear garden. The dual-aspect sitting room has a charming bay window that frames the front garden beautifully. The kitchen provides ample cabinetry along with integrated appliances and connections for additional units like a washing machine or fridge/freezer. There's direct access to a conservatory-style sunroom that leads out to the expansive gardens. A separate dining room showcases built-in cupboards and another attractive bay window. Outside, mature hedging encloses the wraparound gardens filled with shrubs and fruit trees that create a serene outdoor environment. The driveway leads to a detached garage equipped with an up-and-over door as well as personal access from the rear. Located conveniently off Ivy Road, this property boasts close proximity to essential amenities in Broadstone and Wimborne, as well as easy access to transportation links leading toward Poole and Bournemouth. Additionally, state schools, grammar schools, and independent educational institutions are within reach. With its combination of original features and significant potential for modernization or extension, this bungalow represents an exciting project for both homeowners looking to personalize their space or investors seeking value in a desirable location.
