Durrington Road, Bournemouth

Set on a quiet and desirable residential road in Boscombe East, this beautifully extended 1930s four-bedroom, three-bathroom detached family home offers a seamless blend of period charm and high-end modern living. From the moment you step inside, character features such as high ceilings, original picture rails, traditional Dorset coving, and herringbone Karndean flooring set the tone for a home that’s as elegant as it is inviting. It’s a must see to truly appreciate the quality of the accommodation and finishes.

The newly constructed porch opens into a spacious hallway with a traditional half-turn spindle staircase, understairs storage, and a stylish ground-floor cloakroom. To the front, the 20ft formal reception room provides a cosy retreat, with a bay window and log-burning stove creating the perfect setting for quiet evenings in. To the rear, the heart of the home is a truly impressive 23ft x 19ft open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area — a space designed for modern family life and entertaining. Fitted with a bespoke Masterclass kitchen and finished with quartz worktops and a central island seating four, the kitchen includes high-spec NEFF appliances such as a hide-and-slide double oven/microwave, induction hob with discreet extractor, integrated fridge and freezer, and dishwasher. Underfloor heating adds comfort, while large bi-folding doors with integral blinds lead to the sunny, landscaped rear garden and vitrified stone patio — perfect for hosting or relaxing in the warmer months.

A separate utility room provides additional storage and appliance space and connects to the 19ft rear extension, which provides further flexible accommodation, currently used as a home gym or office. A newly built garage/workshop to the front includes double doors, power, lighting, and an internal access door into the main house.

Upstairs, the bright landing leads to four bedrooms. The luxurious master suite includes a wall of fitted wardrobes and a designer en-suite shower room, featuring Porcelanosa tiling, a walk-in glass shower enclosure, Duravit WC and Grohe fittings. The guest bedroom also benefits from a modern en-suite, while the third bedroom is a generous double and the fourth, a good-sized single. The family bathroom is completed upstairs, with a rainfall shower over the bath, Duravit sanitaryware, Grohe taps, and stylish Porcelanosa tiles.

Outside, the large driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles, with a front garden bordered by mature shrubs and a beautiful blossom tree offering privacy and kerb appeal. The westerly-facing rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with a lawn, vitrified patio, fruit trees, and a decked area ideal for summer dining. There is also a garden shed for additional storage.

Further benefits include UPVC double glazing, encapsulated triple-glazed original windows, gas central heating, a full rewire with HDMI and CAT 6 cabling, a water softener, a newly installed boiler, and a fully pressurised heating system.Tenure: Freehold
