Detached house for sale in Alder Road, Poole BH12

What its got

A deceptively spacious 4 bedroom detached chalet bungalow that has been carefully updated and modernised throughout. As you enter the home you are welcomed into the lounge/kitchen/dining room which wraps in a U shape creating an ideal entertaining space. With newly fitted French doors leading to the rear garden this area is the hub of the home and a wonderful space. Additionally on the ground floor you have a modern family bathroom, along with 2 good size double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes. In the first room as you enter the home, there is a large unit with a pull down double bed on hydraulics which was made bespoke for this room as the current owners use this room as a spare/playroom.

Upstairs there is 2 further bedrooms with eaves storage and a bathroom. The sellers also had a quote for adding a dormer to create further space upstairs, please contact us for more information regarding this.

The garden is a real feature of this home being completely enclosed and private with no houses overlooking. There is a built in BBQ area leading onto the decking perfect for those warm sunny evenings, a decent lawn area and further sheds for storage. The shed on the patio wraps around the side of the house and is approx. 5-6m long so offers a great storage area and also has power including a double socket. There is a further double socket outside the kitchen which the current sellers used to use for their hot tub/other electricals. To the front of the property there is potential to create an off road parking space for one car.

This home has been well loved and looked after by the current family, it certainly is not to be missed with the size it offers. Viewings are highly recommended to appreciate what this home has to offer.

Nb. Tenure is freehold. A new consumer unit was fitted when the current owners moved in.

What the owner says

“We were initially drawn to the house due to the semi open plan flow of the living space and the spacious bedrooms. The layout means we can all be close as a family and hear conversations without being on top of each other. It is also perfect for entertaining and has a really nice flow. We have grown our family here and are lucky to have both of our girls in Heatherlands which is a fantastic school. A quick walk to the Rec is also brilliant for the dog and children. Our favourite part of the house is the back garden which we have put a lot of love into. The BBQ kitchen area was built in lockdown! It is a surprisingly quiet garden and has a lovely outlook onto the trees without being overlooked at all. Something we will struggle to find again I think!”
