Forest Road, BRANKSOME PARK, BH13 6DH

An exceptional opportunity to acquire this charming, older-style detached property, offered to the market for the first time in over 40 years.   Set within a generous plot and enjoying a desirable south-westerly aspect, this substantial home provides beautifully proportioned accommodation and a wealth of original character.    The property comprises five well-sized bedrooms, including two with en-suite facilities, three versatile reception rooms ideal for family living and entertaining, and a spacious kitchen/breakfast room. Throughout, the home retains many attractive period features, creating a wonderful foundation for sympathetic enhancement.   Although the property now requires updating, it represents an exciting opportunity for purchasers to design and create a truly stunning family home, tailored to their own lifestyle and tastes.  The mature gardens offer excellent privacy and outdoor space, whilst the generous plot provides scope for extension or reconfiguration, subject to the usual planning consents.  Properties of this nature, size, and potential are rarely available - early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the character, setting, and outstanding opportunity on offer.

The property occupies a delightful position on a quiet, leafy, tree-lined road, surrounded by homes of similar character, in the highly sought-after area of Branksome Park. Perfectly placed for embracing the coastal lifestyle, the golden sandy shores are just moments away, with the promenade stretching from the famous Sandbanks in one direction and to Bournemouth and beyond in the other. The vibrant village of Westbourne, renowned for its café-bar culture, excellent restaurants, and boutique shopping alongside the usual high street names to include a Marks & Spencer Foodhall is also close by.   Excellent transport links are provided via regular bus services and nearby train stations at Branksome and Bournemouth railway stations.
