Restharrow, Lansdowne Gardens, Bournemouth, BH1 1QR

What’s On Offer?
A top floor apartment with great bedrooms, a shower room and access to communal lounge with regular activities.
A bright and airy home that requires no immediate works. Buyers can pull up in the resident car park, unpack and enjoy peaceful living within a brilliant community.
A secure development for over 55s, in a connected location near to beaches and town.

Access.
RestHarrow has a secure door entry phone system, so you can buzz your friends and family in from your flat. They’ll then either use the lift or stairs to access your floor; handy for you when you’ve done the shopping!

Resident Parking.
Owners benefit from use of a large residents-only car park with an entrance to the building just beside it…no more searching for a spot after work, no more walking for ages in the rain! Just pull up, park and get in. There’s also parking for visitors, so you can feel confident hosting.

Layout.
The apartment windows face West, giving brilliant natural light throughout the day and makes living here delightful year-round. Both bedrooms are good sizes, with space for double beds and storage (the main room has built in wardrobes and over bed cupboards ). The second bedroom is currently set up for guests and as a hobby room- something we think many will carry on!
There are two further cupboards in the hallway, in addition to a communal storage room in the building, so those downsizing won’t have to worry about where to put your things!

The open plan design of the lounge-diner-kitchen room works well here. Everything you need at your fingertips whilst feeling surprisingly spacious. There’s space for a dining set, the kitchen has enough worktop space and there’s room for your fridge freezer. Our seller even has a very nifty worktop dishwasher, which we think is genius! Space for a sofa or as currently configured, two large chairs. The bay window (recently renewed A++ uPVC double glazing) is crystal clear, giving a great connection to the outside and once those curtains are drawn for the evening, the room becomes a cosy space, ready for your Netflix marathon!

Possibly our favourite thing about this flat is the hallway! There’s no long dark corridor here, but a wide, spacious entrance that gives access to all rooms, borrowing light from each of them and even offers space for more freestanding storage…another feature that gives this home a comfortable, liveable feeling.

Offer Check Procedure.
If you are considering making an offer for this or any other property through Lloyd Young Homes, please make early contact with our team to verify your buying position. Our Sellers expect us to report on each buyer's ‘proceedability’ whenever we submit an offer.

Viewings.
Viewings are carried out Monday-Saturday and select Sundays. Our sellers go to great lengths to prepare for your visit. We value their time, your time and our own time, so please check floor plans, photos and descriptions ahead of booking to avoid wasting it. If for any reason you need to cancel a viewing please call, WhatsApp or email us asap and of course, we’d love to answer all of your questions to make sure this home is a good fit.

Anti Money Laundering.
We have an obligation to complete anti-money laundering checks. When submitting offers, please call the office to book an AML check. AML check includes taking copies of two forms of identification for each purchaser. Proof of address and proof of name document is required.

Mortgage & Protection.
We have whole-of-market advisors offering mortgages and various protection products from a panel of lending insurers. Fees are competitively priced, and they can help advise and arrange mortgages and protection for anyone, regardless of who they are buying and selling through.

If you're looking for advice on borrowing power, what interest rates you are eligible for, submitting an agreement in principle, placing a full mortgage application and ways to protect your health, home, and income, we can help.

Solicitors.
Choosing the right conveyancing solicitor is extremely important to ensure that you obtain an effective, yet cost-efficient solution and most importantly, a successful move. The lure of supposedly cheaper online services can be tempting, but this is a route fraught with problems that we strongly advise against. A local, reputable and experienced conveyancing team will safeguard your interests and get deals through. Lloyd Young Homes can recommend several local firms with the necessary local knowledge, with the capacity to execute efficient work. Please ask a member of our team for suggestions.

We believe these details to be correct but this cannot be guaranteed. They do not form part of a contract and nothing in these particulars shall be deemed to be a statement that the property is in good structural condition or otherwise, nor that any of the services, appliances, equipment or facilities are in good working order or have been tested. Buyers must satisfy themselves on such matters prior to purchase.
