Traditional detached house in sought after cul-de-sac location with exciting potential and southerly facing garden

About this property

  • Savills Canford Cliffs are absolutely delighted to offer for sale for the first time in approximately 36 years this charming traditional detached house, which occupies a quiet position due to being situated at the end of a sought-after cul-de-sac.

    The property would benefit from some modernisation, which presents an exciting opportunity for the next owner to update the interior design to their preferred taste. There might also be scope to extend the property, subject of course to obtaining the required consents.

    On entering the property, you are greeted by a bright and good size entrance hall. The sitting room opens out on to the conservatory, which is the ideal area to sit and enjoy the delightful outlook over the rear garden. The kitchen has a good range of fitted units with a breakfast bar and pantry. There is a separate dining room located at the front of the property with a bay window. The cloakroom completes the accommodation to the ground floor.

    To the first floor, there are three bedrooms. The main bedroom has the benefit of its own dressing area and en suite bathroom. Bedrooms two and three are served by the family bathroom and separate WC. Bedroom two has a bay window, fitted wardrobes and a sink.

    Externally, there is a good size south facing rear garden, which is the star of the show not only due to its favourable orientation, but also because of the amount of privacy. The rear garden is mostly laid to lawn with paved areas and paths, a pond, summerhouse and shed. To the front, there is a garage that adjoins the house, a driveway and steps that lead to the front door, as well as a garden area.

    This delightful home and the potential it offers must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
