Donnelly Road, Tuckton, Bournemouth, BH6 5NW

What’s On Offer?
Found in one of our area’s most desirable postcodes, this detached bungalow in Donnelly Road is an opportunity many are waiting for. With great bedroom sizes, a sunny rear garden, a driveway for several vehicles, a garage plus the base for a summer house, it ticks plenty of boxes!
This property delivers a balance of internal and external space, potential and homely vibes. The lounge is currently separate to the kitchen breakfast room, which some will love; others will opt to open the space up to create a large family area. Despite the amount of potential in this bungalow, there are plenty of great features that make a big difference to daily life here. Bedrooms are towards the front of the house, away from the sun and staying cool during the warmer months. Dual aspect windows in the lounge offer extra light throughout the day. There current owners have started the base for a large summer house/studio/annexe. We’re looking forward to talking through your plans!

Out front, the driveway is a great size with space for several vehicles and can easily be extended for those with campers, caravans and boats! Special cars can be positioned down the driveway or tucked away in the garage. The frontage is surprisingly large, so buyers can retain plenty of parking plus reinstate shrub boarders if they wish. From the front, the building is unassuming and you wouldn’t know theres’ a great internal space on offer inside!

Inside.
Three bedrooms (or two plus a designated dining room, extra snug etc) and separate lounge/ kitchen is always a great starting point for so many buyers. You’ll have options to keep the traditional layout, or open it up more. Two bedrooms are furthest away from the living space, at the front of the house, remaining quiet and cool for those that appreciate their slumber time. The lounge is large enough for big furniture, a coffee table and a TV unit, with bifold patio doors giving a real sense of connection to the garden, with light streaming in.

Next door is the kitchen breakfast room, fitted with shaker style units, integral oven, hob and plumbing for a dishwasher. The combi boiler is up on the wall, where it should be and light comes in through an openable window plus a back door to the rear garden. There’s space for a four-person dining set, plus a large freestanding fridge freezer and a sideboard.
The entrance and hallway get a mention, unusually; Walking between rooms in a bungalow can often feel cramped and dingy, not here. Wide and with high ceilings, with space for a large storage unit, it’s unlike most bungalows and certainly not what one envisages when thinking ‘bungalow’.
Bedroom sizes are really good, with the primary being particular spacious, the second being surprisingly large and the third room (often the token box room) still being plenty large enough for a double bed plus storage. Radiators are all in the ‘correct’ location, windows are large, and ceilings are skimmed flat…Just move in and apply your own taste.

Sunny, Wide Garden.
Not too big, not too small…
This garden is soaked in sun all day long and laid to lawn with pavers. Its larger than you’d expect due to the corner position and width on offer. The owners are slowly removing extra earth from the summer house base works- ask our team for photos when the lawn is done! It’s the perfect size for green-fingered couples to get stuck into, ideal for those needing space for kids / grandchildren, and brilliant if you’re the designated BBQ host. Storage is taken care of thanks to the garage (with lights and power) and there’s still plenty of space for extra sheds/storage solutions elsewhere. Gated side access makes bringing gardening essentials, bikes, boards and even classic cars around the back, super easy.
Those with electric vehicles and hybrids will also benefit from a wall mounted charger point.

Where is it?
Tuckton is a brilliant place to live! You’ll be joining a community that looks out for each other and is proud to live here. Nip to the beach, take a walk to Hengistbury Head Nature Reserve, or stroll to your favourite spot for dinner and drinks in the high street, Southbourne Grove, or Christchurch. You can also pop into our office to say hi!..
Bus routes are very close by and you can get to the train station (direct routes to London) in just a few minutes. You’ll have the beautiful River Stour on your doorstep for summer paddle boarding and riverside walks.

It’s an opportunity to secure a brilliant seaside town lifestyle, nestled away from the hustle and bustle when you need the peace. You’ll be spoiled for choice with standout restaurants, pubs and cafes along with an array of essential amenities and access to local transport. We love this particular location for the ability to get to everything you need, whilst being just far away enough to avoid the madness during beach season! Donnely Road is perfect for those looking to start a family, raise a family or retire in peace.
