Description

Rossgarth occupies a secluded, gated setting within the prestigious Meyrick Park Conservation Area. Extending to 3,849 sq.ft, this distinguished six bedroom home represents a privileged opportunity to acquire a substantial estate-style residence combining scale, privacy, historic provenance and outstanding future flexibility.

Located directly opposite Meyrick Park and its renowned golf course, Rossgarth enjoys the rare advantage of peaceful surroundings while remaining within easy reach of Bournemouth town centre, the award-winning beaches, AFC Bournemouth’s Vitality Stadium and Bournemouth Railway Station with direct services to London Waterloo and Manchester.

One of the last remaining standalone, estate-style residences of its kind in the area, the property is reputed to have historical associations with Sir Winston Churchill, adding a fascinating chapter to an already distinguished home. Approached via electric gates and a sweeping carriage driveway, the property offers an impressive sense of arrival, with parking for approximately 15 vehicles together with additional external parking.

ABOUT THIS PROPERTY:

Internally, the home is bright, spacious and filled with natural light throughout. High ceilings and beautifully proportioned rooms extend to six bedrooms, three bathrooms and two additional WCs, complemented by two dedicated office spaces, making the property ideally suited to modern family living or hybrid working.

The home includes a spacious kitchen and breakfast room centred around a substantial island with premium integrated appliances, a separate dining room, an elegant lounge and a light-filled orangery opening directly onto the surrounding gardens. A walk-in pantry, dedicated utility and laundry room, together with a basement providing secure lockable storage, further enhance the home's practicality.

The property is presented in excellent condition throughout, combining timeless character with modern comfort. Quality finishes include hardwood flooring, luxurious carpets sourced through Harrods and premium kitchen and laundry appliances, all contributing to the home's refined yet welcoming atmosphere. A magnificent galleried landing, illuminated by an original stained-glass window, provides one of the property's most striking architectural features.

PLANNING CONSENT:

A defining feature of Rossgarth is its exceptional future potential. Planning permission has been granted to reconfigure the internal layout into contemporary open-plan living, together with the conversion of the detached garage into a two-bedroom coach house (subject to the necessary consents). This creates significant scope for a variety of future uses, including ancillary accommodation, a home office, gym, guest suite or potential short-term letting opportunity.

OUTSIDE:

Outside, mature trees and beautifully established wraparound gardens provide an exceptional degree of privacy, creating an atmosphere more reminiscent of a country house than a property so close to the heart of Bournemouth. Expansive lawns, a spacious veranda and sun terraces provide excellent indoor-outdoor living and offer the perfect setting for entertaining or peaceful relaxation.

LOCATION:

The location is one of the property's most compelling attributes. Situated directly opposite Meyrick Park and its renowned golf course, and within walking distance of Bournemouth town centre and the beach, the home also benefits from excellent transport connections. Bournemouth railway station lies approx. 0.7 miles away, providing direct services to London Waterloo, Southampton Central, Winchester, Birmingham New Street and Manchester Piccadilly, while the Wessex Way provides convenient access across the region. The Vitality Stadium, home of Premier League Football side AFC Bournemouth, is approx. a 10-minute drive away. The West Hants Club, Nuffield private hospital, highly regarded schools and an excellent selection of restaurants are all within close proximity.

Properties of this calibre, offering such privacy, history, scale and future potential rarely become available within the Meyrick Park Conservation Area. Rossgarth presents a unique opportunity to acquire one of Bournemouth’s most distinctive and versatile period residences.

    “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.

    “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.
