Description

Homes that represent genuine value in Lower Parkstone have become increasingly difficult to find, particularly detached houses that offer both flexibility and the opportunity to add personal style over time. Located between Penn Hill and Ashley Cross, this home has been carefully looked after during a successful period as a rental property and is now offered with vacant possession. Behind its generous frontage is a surprisingly adaptable layout including three double bedrooms together with a versatile ground floor room suited to a home office, playroom or guest bedroom accommodation with its own private entrance. The wrap around garden enjoys a sunny southerly aspect to the rear while providing further outdoor space that follows the changing light throughout the day. For buyers seeking a detached house in an established location without paying a premium for someone else's refurbishment, this represents a compelling opportunity.

ABOUT THIS PROPERTY:

A broad gravel driveway provides parking for several vehicles before a covered entrance opens into a welcoming reception hall where the original staircase and timber detailing introduce the character of the house.

The bay fronted sitting room enjoys a pleasant outlook across the front garden and retains a calm, traditional feel. Beyond, the dining room connects openly with the kitchen to create a sociable everyday living space that works well for family life while also presenting obvious scope for contemporary remodelling should a future owner wish. The kitchen itself is practical and well maintained, with direct access outside.

One of the property's strongest attributes is the additional ground floor room. Benefitting from its own independent entrance, it lends itself equally well as a home office, consulting room, hobbies space or occasional guest bedroom, allowing the house to adapt as lifestyles change. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs are three genuine double bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes, together with a family bathroom. While some buyers may choose to update decorative finishes over time, the house has been carefully maintained and offers an immediately comfortable home with clear potential to enhance value through sympathetic improvement.

OUTSIDE:

The outside space wraps around the house, creating several distinct areas that enjoy different aspects of the sun across the day. A sheltered south facing terrace sits immediately beside the house and provides an easy setting for outdoor dining, while the remaining gardens offer level areas for planting, play or further landscaping. Mature hedging softens the frontage and the gravel driveway provides ample parking, completing a property where the outdoor space offers as much future opportunity as the house itself.

LOCATION:

The property is superbly positioned close to Ashley Cross and within walking distance of Penn Hill’s boutique shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. Branksome Train Station links directly to London, while the renowned sandy beaches of Poole can be reached via Branksome Chine wooded footpath from Penn Hill. The property sits within the catchment for the highly regarded Baden Powell and Courthill schools, making it a fantastic choice for families. Offered with vacant possession, this charming home presents an exciting opportunity to secure a well-located residence in a highly sought-after area.

  • 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.
