Description

The Huon, is one of Talbot Woods’ best kept secret. Being arguably one of the finest residences ever constructed in the area, dating back to 1885. This commanding home has been meticulously and sympathetically restored by its current owners, blending its historic splendour with 21st-century innovation to create a warm family residence of extraordinary comfort, beauty, and function.

Every corner of this wonderful property tells a story. From original fireplaces and cornicing to the delicate architraves, wood panelling and herringbone wood flooring, the level of restoration is nothing short of exquisite. No detail has been overlooked. It’s a property where heritage craftsmanship and modern infrastructure exist in perfect harmony, offering all the benefits of modern living without compromising the character and romance of a bygone era.

Providing substantial and flexible living space set across three expansive floors, including a self-contained basement apartment with private entrance. The home is perfectly suited to multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even a premium rental opportunity. Every level has been designed with space and flow in mind, ideal for family life, entertaining, or a quiet retreat.

Positioned discreetly within over an acre of mature, south-westerly orientated gardens, the property enjoys a level of privacy and tranquillity rarely found in central Bournemouth. Backing directly onto a nature reserve, The Huon is enveloped by wildlife and woodland so much so, most locals are unaware it even exists.

The gardens are a marvel in their own right, thoughtfully landscaped across three tiers, they include an imaginative, hidden children’s play zone, a sun-drenched alfresco entertaining area, and a diverse array of mature trees and exotic plantings to thrill even the most passionate gardener.

Accessed via double electronic gates and sweeping private drive, the home also benefits from a comprehensive security camera system for peace of mind.

  • Beyond traditional estate agency

    From Philippa Sole’s inception in 2016, Pippa set out to create something beyond traditional estate agency.

    What began as one woman’s vision has grown, nine years on, into a multi-award-winning collective of nine individuals from the worlds of retail, leisure, construction, media and property.

    Guided by Pippa, we are grounded in expertise, united by curiosity, defined by creativity, and driven by a shared commitment to our clients and their homes.

    “My business is built on personal recommendations and client referrals. I specialise in selling properties discreetly with approximately a third of my transactions not appearing on the open market but sold as whisper listings" — Pippa

    Not sure where to buy?

    We believe that value is defined by more than price; it is shown in the quality of our highly professional service.

    For clients unfamiliar with the area, we offer personal guided tours as well as video tours, sharing some of our favourite places to go, which are available online or on request.

    Come and meet us

    You’ll find us in our office in the heart of Ashley Cross, the vibrant hub of Poole’s café culture, lively conversation, and easy-going pub charm, where people of all ages blend together in happy vibes.

    “I maintain an office for formal meetings but have no traditional shop window, since this does little to enhance the sale process from the client’s perspective and does not reflect today’s digitally driven marketplace.” — Pippa

    We don’t have a traditional shop front. Instead, we invite you to make an appointment at our office, so we can dedicate time to sit with you and understand your bigger picture.

    After all, moving home is only part of life’s journey. Nothing gives us greater satisfaction than getting to know you, working holistically and wholeheartedly to help you make the life transition that inspires your decision to sell or buy.
