Description
**We are delighted to offer for sale this beautifully presented four-bedroom period property, maintained to a high standard by the current owners and offering a pleasing blend of contemporary and traditional interior design.**
Built in 1908, in the peak of the Arts & Crafts architectural movement, the property is situated in the desirable Queens Park area of Bournemouth, close to the popular Queens Park Golf Course and within easy reach of the amenities and facilities that the area has to offer.
The current owners have undertaken a significant programme of improvements to both the property and its grounds, creating a well-presented home that is ready for its new owners to enjoy.
Externally, the property benefits from a **newly paved driveway, new front garden wall and gates, landscaped gardens and new fencing throughout**. A new patio and additional paving have been installed, together with a new decked area at the lower level of the rear garden, providing a number of areas from which to enjoy the outside space.
Internally, **most of the property has been newly decorated**, with new carpets laid to the first floor. The family bathroom and en-suite have also been refurbished, providing modern and stylish facilities.
Further improvements include **new underground electrical cabling to the garage, greenhouse and shed locations**, although these connections have not yet been completed.
The rear garden provides a mature and established setting, with a large Redwood tree being a particularly prominent feature. A Eucalyptus tree is situated adjacent to the patio, with a selection of established trees and planting also contributing to the character of the gardens. Trees adjacent to the front driveway include Magnolia, Hazel and Cherry, adding to the property's attractive mature setting.
Overall, this is an attractive and substantially improved four-bedroom home, offering well-presented accommodation together with landscaped and established gardens, in a highly regarded residential location close to Queens Park and the golf course.
**The property should be viewed to fully appreciate the standard of presentation, improvements and outside space on offer.**
