Description

This distinctive period property, originally built in 1913, spans an impressive 3,037 sq ft and presents significant renovation and development potential in the sought-after BH4 area of Bournemouth. 'Brambledown' has been cherished by its current owners for nearly three decades, showcasing a unique charm combined with ample space for modern living. The residence is surrounded by picturesque mature gardens that not only provide privacy but also an opportunity for further enhancement or potential plot development (subject to planning permission). Upon entering, you're greeted by a spacious hallway leading to a generous sitting room that features French doors opening onto the garden – an ideal setup for entertaining or enjoying family time. Adjacent is a formal dining room, creating a fluid layout perfect for both everyday family life and larger gatherings. The home boasts five sets of French doors, enhancing natural light throughout. The kitchen/dining area serves as a practical heart of the home, paired with a separate utility room and offering flexibility with a ground-floor bedroom and shower room—a great feature for guests or work-from-home arrangements. An integral garage provides additional storage solutions. Upstairs, the gallery landing leads to five well-proportioned double bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite bathroom. Bedroom two offers its own ensuite shower room and access to a private balcony—an appealing rare feature in this region. The remaining bedrooms benefit from access to a shared family bathroom. The property retains many original period details while benefiting from modern updates, making it welcoming yet spacious enough for contemporary family needs. Externally, the established gardens are notable for their extensive lawn areas and mature plantings, alongside a substantial sun terrace complete with hot tub. Importantly, there’s potential (subject to planning) to create two additional residential plots with separate access from Walsford Road which significantly enhances the property's investment appeal in this idyllic location. With its prime setting in one of Bournemouth's most attractive residential areas—marked by tree-lined streets and proximity to excellent amenities—this property combines character, space, and future investment potential.
