Description

This detached bungalow is situated on a generous plot and presents a promising opportunity for renovation and investment. The property comprises two spacious double bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a dual-aspect lounge measuring 16ft, along with a practical entrance porch. One of the standout features is the expansive rear garden, extending to approximately 90 feet in length. This outdoor space not only offers potential for landscaping but also opens up possibilities for extending the property (subject to planning permission), making it an attractive option for those looking to add value through further development. Additionally, there is a 16ft detached garage/workshop that can serve multiple purposes. Driveway parking is available for several vehicles, enhancing convenience for residents and visitors alike. The property comes with no forward chain, simplifying the purchasing process. Inside, the entrance leads to a lobby that provides access to the main entrance hall. The lounge/dining room benefits from plenty of natural light due to its dual aspect windows and features wood laminate flooring. The kitchen requires complete modernisation but has traditional units, ample space for utilities, and direct access to the rear garden—an ideal blank canvas for culinary enthusiasts. Both bedrooms enjoy dual aspects as well; Bedroom one looks out over the front and side of the property while Bedroom two overlooks the garden. The bathroom contains a matching white suite with partially tiled walls and an opaque window to allow privacy while still providing natural light. The landscaped rear garden is divided into three distinct sections: it includes a raised patio area perfect for outdoor dining, steps leading down to a lawned area surrounded by mature hedging and timber fencing, which enhances privacy while offering side access to the driveway. The location is another key attribute of this property. Positioned approximately three miles from Wimborne town center—which provides a variety of amenities—and just 1.5 miles from Ferndown’s extensive shopping and leisure facilities, this bungalow offers ease of access to essential services while still enjoying a tranquil residential setting. This property serves as an excellent investment opportunity both for first-time buyers looking to create their dream home through renovation or investors aiming to enhance value through modernization.
