Detached house for sale in Branksome Wood Gardens, Bournemouth BH2

With the original property having been taken apart, extended and substantially re-built into an absolutely stunning home, this unique house is not one to be missed. It is available with no chain (from July 2023) and viewings are available now, strictly by appointment.

Featuring about 2,700ft2 (approx 250m2) of accommodation, the house is spacious in all the right areas with four double bedrooms; four bathrooms (three en-suite); a spectacular 28ft by 25ft kitchen/family room and still two further, full-size, reception rooms suitable for home office, games/playroom or overflow bedrooms for when guests come to stay.

The back of the house (from the living room) opens out with double bi-fold doors, onto a landscaped, low maintenance rear garden that has a sunny south-westerly aspect.

There is ample parking for several cars on the front forecourt and the presentation of the home could not be more impressive, both inside and out, with exceptional workmanship and materials used throughout the architectural transformation.

The house is set in a short cul-de-sac of only four properties, just over half a mile from Bournemouth’s town centre by car down Branksome Wood Road, or as a pleasant walk down past the tennis courts through the Upper Gardens. From the town centre it is less than another half mile walk, right down onto the beach at Bournemouth Pier.

From the front parking area, the front door leads directly into a double height, vaulted entrance hallway with a mezzanine area above, being part of the first-floor landing. This is accessed by an open tread, cantilevered staircase with glass panel banister and balustrade.

On the left and right are the two downstairs, double bedrooms, the right of which has an en-suite shower room and the other has a ground floor full bathroom, that also serves as shared cloakroom. Also from here is one of the ground floor reception rooms that would serve equally as a home office/study or overflow fifth bedroom.

A couple of steps from this impressive hallway lead, up to a large family room and kitchen with bi-fold doors to the rear and side aspects that open fully, from a corner pillar, to truly bring the inside and outside together, as a fabulous living and entertaining space.

The kitchen (see photos) is a marvel of modern design, as you would expect, and is arranged around a central cooking island with the sink and integrated appliances to the sides. One side of the island forms a broad breakfast bar and there are separate dining and entertaining areas of the room, divided by a central column which is ideal for displaying statement art.

The second additional reception room is accessed from here with its own patio doors onto the rear garden and this again is suitable for a multitude of uses to suit a wide range of new owners.

Going up the stairs to the landing, the mezzanine area has also been used as an office or study as it is a very good size with lovely light coming from the vaulted ceiling and glazed gable end to the front. There are two similar double, en-suite bedrooms off here, both with twin aspect windows to the sides and rear.

As mentioned earlier in this description, the garden and living room are brough together by opening the bi-fold doors onto a large patio which wraps around the rear and sides of the house with ample space for al-fresco dining and sofa suites. The rest of the garden has a south-westerly aspect and is laid to lawn with a fence topped low wall boundary onto Meyrick Park woodland at the end.

There are too many further features to describe here so find out more about this unique home, please arrange your viewing, strictly by appointment of course, through our office.
