PROJECT - GUIDE PRICE £575,000 - Currently a shell of a house (cash buyers only) with planning approval to remove the rear single-storey extension. Form a two-storey side extension and form a rear single-storey extension. Add roof lights to loft space. P/HOU/2024/04907

Main Description - Situated in the desirable location of Colehill, approximately 1 mile from Wimborne town centre, this detached 1930s house offers a unique opportunity to create a stunning new home. Currently a shell, the property has planning permission for a substantial single-story rear extension, a two-story side extension, and roof lights for the new roof. The existing house has approximately 860 sq. ft. of living space, with the planned extensions adding around 1,250 sq. ft., resulting in approximately 2,100 sq. ft. of living space.

The proposed new layout features an impressive open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area across the rear of the property, complete with sliding or bifold doors leading to the south-facing rear garden. Additionally, separate rooms would be suitable as a formal lounge or snug, a study/office, a small double bedroom on the ground floor, a large shower room, and a spacious utility room. 

The first floor includes a principal bedroom with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom and two further double bedrooms served by a main family bathroom. The property benefits from a newly dropped curb providing access to gravel off-road parking for three to four cars. A wide pathway along the right-hand side of the house leads to the rear garden, which extends to approximately 75 feet and enjoys a high degree of privacy. The garden also includes a recently constructed large timber shed/workshop, ideal for storage.

Wimborne Minster is centred around a charming town square. It boasts a lively shopping area featuring independent shops and national chain stores including a Waitrose supermarket, a good range of pubs and restaurants, the Tivoli theatre/cinema, and the historic Minster church. There are state schools for all ages, and the surrounding area is well-served by both grammar and independent schools. There is easy access by road to the coastal towns of Poole and Bournemouth, both of which have mainline rail links to London Waterloo. Beautiful countryside surrounds the town and Dorset’s stunning beaches are within easy reach.
