Brunstead Road, Coy Pond, Poole, Dorset, BH12

Built in 1907, this charming residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial character home with immense potential, set within a beautifully secluded plot of over half an acre, and boasting over 3,000 sq ft of accommodation.

This charming residence is approached via a sweeping driveway, providing a sense of grandeur and privacy from the outset. Mature trees and established planting frame the house, creating a wonderfully private setting and a picturesque first impression.

The expansive front gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, while a detached garage sits to the side of the driveway, offering excellent storage or secure parking.

Entering the house through the original front door, via an entrance vestibule with access to a cloakroom, you are welcomed into a spacious entrance hallway, immediately showcasing the home’s generous proportions. To the right, two elegant reception rooms, both featuring bay windows and working fireplaces, provide ideal spaces for family gatherings or entertaining.

The kitchen is positioned to the rear of the house and offers access to a useful pantry and a separate utility room. It connects to a formal dining room, with doors opening directly to the rear garden, and a breakfast room overlooking the front gardens — a practical layout with clear scope for redesign into a contemporary open-plan kitchen/living space if desired.

Upstairs, there are five well-proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with a bay window and en-suite shower room. A family bathroom and additional WC serve the remaining bedrooms.

On the second floor, a spacious loft room offers excellent versatility — ideal for a home office, playroom, or potential conversion into an additional bedroom (subject to necessary permissions).

To the side of the property sits a single garage, attached to the house via a covered walkway, which creates a spacious and practical indoor utility area - ideal for additional storage, and currently houses the washing machine, tumble dryer and an overflow fridge/freezer.

Spanning just over 3,000 sq ft and offering an abundance of period charm, this is a rare opportunity to create a dream family home, perfectly situated just half a mile from the vibrant Westbourne Village.

Outside

To the rear, the gardens continue the theme of privacy and tranquillity. Bordered by an array of mature trees and natural greenery, the rear grounds provide a peaceful sanctuary. A swimming pool forms a wonderful focal point for outdoor recreation during the warmer months, while a garden shed offers additional practical storage for tools and equipment. With areas of both sun and shade throughout the day, the garden offers endless potential for landscaping, entertaining, or simply relaxing in the serenity of the surroundings.

This rare combination of space, seclusion, and character truly complements the timeless appeal of the house itself, offering a lifestyle opportunity seldom found so close to town amenities.
