Description
Occupying a generous plot along a private road on the edge of the ever-popular village of Lytchett Matravers, Fern Bank is a charming detached 1930s bungalow that has been beautifully maintained and thoughtfully improved by the current owners. Combining period character with modern practicality, the property offers spacious accommodation, generous outside space and exciting potential for future extension, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Extending to approximately 1,002 sq ft, the accommodation is immediately welcoming, with high ceilings throughout creating a wonderful sense of light and space. A spacious entrance hall leads through to the impressive dual-aspect sitting and dining room, measuring over 24 feet in length, where a wide bay window floods the room with natural light. A feature fireplace provides an attractive focal point, enhancing the charm and character of this elegant reception space.
The kitchen/breakfast room enjoys pleasant views over the rear garden and is fitted with a range of wall and base units, complemented by integrated appliances including an oven, hob and dishwasher. A separate utility room offers excellent additional storage and laundry space, with direct access to the garden, while an adjoining cloakroom provides added convenience.
Both bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles, with the principal bedroom benefiting from a comprehensive range of fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom is well appointed with both a bath and separate walk-in shower, perfectly suited to modern family living.
Since purchasing the property in early 2024, the current owners have carried out a number of thoughtful improvements, including the installation of a new front driveway, replacement of the garage roof and upgraded radiators. The property is heated via a gas-fired combi boiler, installed circa 2022, and the loft is accessed via a convenient pull-down ladder.
Outside, Fern Bank enjoys a generous north-east facing rear garden offering an excellent degree of privacy. A full-width patio provides the perfect space for outdoor dining and entertaining before leading onto an established lawn with mature shrub borders. There is also a productive kitchen garden and greenhouse, making it an ideal space for keen gardeners.
To the front, the newly laid driveway provides extensive off-road parking for several vehicles, with ample space for a motorhome, caravan or boat if required. The detached garage benefits from power and lighting, making it ideal for secure parking, storage, a workshop or hobby space.
Situated on the rural edge of the highly sought-after village of Lytchett Matravers, the property enjoys the perfect balance of village living and countryside surroundings, whilst remaining conveniently positioned for Poole, Wareham, excellent local schools and the stunning Dorset coastline.
Offered to the market with no forward chain, Fern Bank presents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a beautifully maintained character home offering generous living space, delightful gardens and exciting future potential in one of the area's most desirable locations. Early viewing is highly recommended.
