Castlemain Avenue, Bournemouth, BH6

Summary

This house is big, at just over 2600 square feet. Spread over 3 floors and with 6 bedrooms total, along with 3 reception rooms and a large kitchen/dining room, this house is super flexible. A great garden, parking, and an epic hallway add to the overall quality feel of the property. Set on a tree-lined road in a great location, not far from Southbourne High Street, with the beach a little further, but it’s a great walk through Fisherman’s Walk to get there.

Ground Floor

You enter the property into a brilliant hallway. Tall ceilings, big staircase and room for a piano without compromise. To your right you have the first reception room. In the photos, this room is set up as an office/exercise room but still has enough space for two sofas. It has a great fireplace and bay window. Tall ceilings create a great room.

Towards the back of the house is the kitchen/dining room. The floor space is large, with space for a big table and lots of worktop space.
You have access to the lean-to on the outside of the building, the utility/wc room and also linking with the extension that has been added to the rear.

That extension is a further lounge space, but is super flexible and connects via patio doors to the wonderful rear garden.

Just to give you a bit more space, there is a further lounge/reception room that sits between the extension and hallway. A big space in its own right, but with the wood burner and the ability to close it off from the rest of the ground floor, it makes a great snug-feeling room.

First Floor

On the first floor there is a continued feeling of space with the high ceilings and large rooms. The bedroom at the front has lots of floor space, built-in wardrobes and a large bay window that has views across the area to the priory. This would make a great master bedroom choice. The next bedroom might just pip it to that primary bedroom spot, though. Again, lots of floor space, high ceilings, a bay window and overlooking the rear garden. Would I choose this room if I were buying the house…. probably just, yes.

Also on this floor there’s a big single/smaller double room to the front and a further double bedroom to the rear, that just so happens to have a little kitchenette from here into a roof space. It’s not something you’ll see very often, but it is a useful space to have.

Lastly, on the first floor is a smart and cleanly designed family shower room.

Second Floor

The second floor has two large bedrooms and a further bathroom. The larger of the two bedrooms has some really nice views over the garden and the bedroom to the front you can just about see the sea and has some really nice views across the local area.

Outside

Total plot is 0.13 of an acre, which is fab. And you feel it all around the house. The front of the property has lots of parking and garage doors that open through to a lean-to space that is really hard to describe how cool it is. Great ping pong/pool area? I’d be out here all the time.

The rear garden is two parts. Directly outside the patio doors you have a flat area with shed, patio and some artifical lawn. You’re going to use this space for entertaining, garden drink, BBQ etc. You then have a path that leads to the rear of the garden and this is raised, so you have great views across the area. Here you could use the space for many different purposes. The current owner has has used it for ducks, bees, chickens and many other things. If you have kids, it’s a great space to kick a ball about, climbing frame etc?

If you’d like to come and view, please get in touch and we would be happy to show you round.

Bedrooms

You have 6 bedrooms in total across the first and second floors

Parking - Off street

You have parking for several cars to the front and behind the garage doors is a big lean-to space.
