Hengistbury Road, Bournemouth, BH6 4DH

This amazing apartment is found moments from Hengistbury Head, sandy Southbourne beaches, local shops, cafes and handy amenities. You’ll have off road parking, a garage for your paddle boards and bikes, plus plenty of internal storage to make this a comfortable main home or a special seaside bolthole! Currently a successful Airbnb achieving £250/night, we’ve had pre-market interest from buyers looking to secure a longterm retirement/ holiday spot by the beach, that’ll earn money in the meantime.

What’s On Offer?
This is a versatile first floor apartment in a sought-after coastal location. It’s ideal as a ‘first home’ for a couple, very good as a buy-to-let investment, and dreamy as a personal holiday retreat.
The current owners completely renovated throughout, creating a fresh ‘canvas’ that has a homely, welcoming feeling whilst remaining ready for your own personal taste. There’s no works needed at all, just move in and enjoy from day one. Offered with no chain, share of the freehold and by motivated sellers, you could even get the keys in time to enjoy the summer sun!
Accessed via steps leading to a private front door under a storm porch canopy (doubling as a great sunny coffee spot).


Inside.
Through the front door, you’re into a hallway that’s larger than you’ll expect for a flat. There’s plenty of space to kick off shoes, hang up coats and sort out the kids. This central hallway gives access to all main rooms and is large enough for extra storage and it really makes a difference to daily life; much better than one dark, narrow hallway as found in many flats! The whole flat is bright and airy, with large windows in all rooms. Being first floor (and in a lovely neighbourhood), you can rest easy with windows open whilst you’re at the beach, at your favourite watering hole, or off on your morning run!

All three bedrooms are lovely sizes, genuinely useable with king/super king beds and plenty of space for furniture. The main bedroom boasts a shower en suite, hidden away behind a space-saving sliding door. Bay windows to the front bedrooms provide extra light, ventilation and clever storage units that double up as the perfect reading spot! Even the third bedroom (often the token box room most homes) is a brilliant size, currently set up with two singles, bedside units plus a large wardrobe. Those looking to maximise Airbnb guests here will be pleasantly surprised!

The family bathroom is the perfect size and once again, needs NO work at all. Classic tiled walls along the p-shaped bath with rain shower over, tiled flooring, a snazzy Japanese bidet toilet (we haven’t tried it out!) and a central heating towel rail. A frosted and openable window gives natural light and ventilation in addition to the powerful extractor fan and LED ceiling lights. Even the vanity mirror has LEDs, so you can clearly see how smug you are on moving day!


Showstopper.
The large open plan lounge-diner-kithcen space is the ideal size to relax in, host good company and grow with your family. There’s space for large sofas, a TV unit and a coffee table. With a quick shuffle, we think a small dining set would fit here, but that’s already taken care of by the breakfast bar! Chefs can chat with guests and keep an eye on the kids whilst preparing food in the contemporary kitchen. It’s immaculate, with the integral appliances that include fridge freezer, oven, microwave, washing machine tumble dryer and induction hob with extractor over.
This room is triple aspect, with three large windows -all openable- providing a through-breeze in the warmer months and natural lighting throughout the day.
The breakfast bar is large enough for four stools, so there’s ample room for dinner time, drinks with guests, school projects and everything in between!
Unusually for a flat, there’s gas central heating throughout, with the ability to app control the heating ahead of your arrival.


Outside.
Off-road parking plus storage in the garage is really handy here, with extra on-road parking nearby for guests and visitors. Many buyers will be excited by the garage, for their paddle boards, bikes, beach gear and even motorbikes. The stairs up to the flat front door are manageable for most, with grab rails and steps that aren’t too tall.


Location Location.
Hengistbury Road is perfectly positioned for those wanting the best seaside living experience, with Mudeford Sandbank, Tuckton Shops, Southbourne and of course our beautiful sandy beaches, all within walking distance. Christchurch is also just around the corner, so whether you’re planning to launch the jet ski for the day, test yourself walking Warren Hill, or want to enjoy the nearby restaurants and bars, you’ve not got far to travel!
You really will have the best of all worlds living here- you’ll be part of a brilliant neighbourhood near to everything you need, but you’ll also benefit from how quiet it is.


Who’s It For?
It’s for those longing for a life by the water, near to bustling communities but also peace and quiet. Hengistbury Road has it all!
It’s for couples, small families and investors. Its for buyers that currently love where they live, and those dreaming about living in a really connected neighbourhood, near to everything you need, whilst still peaceful.
