Description

This three-bedroom staggered semi-detached house presents a significant opportunity for renovation in the Bournemouth area. Located conveniently within proximity to local amenities and transport links, this property boasts a practical layout with a kitchen/diner, a downstairs WC, and generous storage solutions throughout. The kitchen has seen some recent updates but could benefit from further enhancement to unlock its full potential. Upon entering, the hallway leads to all main rooms and includes a convenient downstairs toilet. The lounge opens into the kitchen/diner, which spans the width of the home. While the kitchen is functional, it offers scope for modernisation or redesign. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms—two spacious doubles and a single, along with an airing cupboard and additional storage. The shower room is fully tiled and features contemporary elements like a walk-in glass-enclosed shower. Outside, the garden is mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature shrubs, providing a tranquil outdoor space that overlooks adjacent fields towards Throop. There’s also off-road parking available on the block-paved driveway at the front. With its appealing location just 1.5 miles from The Royal Bournemouth Hospital and close to shopping at Castlepoint, this property is ripe for investment. Given its current state, buyers can make it their own while potentially increasing its value through thoughtful renovations.
