Exton Road, Bournemouth, BH6

This well-proportioned three-bedroom bungalow offers an opportunity for buyers looking for a project, with the property requiring a significant programme of updating and refurbishment throughout. The accommodation includes a generous living room, kitchen, utility room, bathroom, separate WC and three bedrooms, including a good-sized primary bedroom.

The property is in a tired and worn condition and will require considerable work to bring it up to a modern and comfortable standard. Buyers should be prepared for updating the kitchen and bathrooms, redecoration, flooring and general refurbishment, making this a property best suited to those willing to take on a project.

That said, there is good potential here to create a much-improved bungalow in a desirable setting. With the right vision and investment, the property could be transformed into a comfortable three-bedroom home, offering an opportunity for buyers looking for a project rather than a turnkey property.

Situated on Exton Road, the property is positioned within the popular coastal suburb of Southbourne, to the east of Bournemouth. The area is particularly appealing for those wanting a more relaxed residential setting while still being within easy reach of Bournemouth and Christchurch.

Southbourne is well regarded for its independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, with Southbourne Grove providing a strong local centre. The nearby coastline is a major attraction, with Southbourne Beach offering a broad sandy and shingle shoreline, while the clifftop provides pleasant walks and views towards Hengistbury Head.

One of the standout features of the location is its proximity to Hengistbury Head, a nationally important nature reserve offering extensive walking and cycling routes, wildlife, open countryside and spectacular views across Christchurch Harbour, Poole Bay and towards the Isle of Wight. Christchurch itself is also close by, with the town centre around 1.5 miles from Hengistbury Head, while Bournemouth provides further shopping, entertainment and transport options.

Overall, the location offers a particularly attractive combination of coastal living, local amenities and access to beautiful open spaces, making it an appealing setting for someone prepared to take on the refurbishment required at the property.
