Its proximity to local amenities, including shops, supermarkets, and the picturesque Hatch Pond Nature Reserve, enhances its appeal as a convenient location for potential homeowners or investors. The property requires complete modernization but presents an inviting canvas for those looking to create their ideal living space. The 18' lounge/diner features a charming fireplace, providing an excellent focal point around which to plan upgrades. The kitchen flows into a conservatory, creating potential for an open-plan social area that could greatly enhance the property's layout. Two well-sized bedrooms allow for flexible usage—ideal for families seeking additional space or those wishing to craft a home office or guest room.

Outside, the enclosed garden boasts both a sun patio and lawned area, offering scope for landscaping or outdoor entertainment setups. The front of the property includes ample driveway space leading to a detached garage, adding further value and convenience. With nearby schools such as Hillbourne Primary and Canford Heath Infants and Juniors making this location particularly family-friendly, this bungalow not only holds potential for immediate renovation but also represents an advantageous investment opportunity in an area with a strong community feel. Mobile signal strength is excellent in this area, ensuring connectivity is never an issue.
