4 bed terraced house for sale

R L Stevenson Avenue, Bournemouth BH4

Beautiful four-bedroom character home in sought-after Westbourne, lovingly owned for over 30 years. Features two reception rooms, two bathrooms and a private driveway, all moments from boutique shops, cafés and award-winning beaches. A rare opportunity in a prime location.

Occupying one of Westbourne's most desirable residential roads, just moments from the heart of the village, this beautiful three-storey Victorian townhouse, dating from circa 1880, represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial four-bedroom period home. Many neighbouring Victorian properties have since been converted into apartments, making this one of the few original townhouses remaining as a single residence and a wonderful piece of Westbourne's architectural heritage.

Cherished by the same family for over 30 years, the property retains a wealth of original character, including Victorian panelled doors, wood panelling, picture rails and numerous period features. The accommodation is complemented by modern comforts including double glazing and gas-fired central heating, creating a home that successfully combines period charm with the practicalities of modern living.

The ground floor offers two generous reception rooms, with the principal lounge featuring a working fireplace and excellent natural light. The kitchen connects naturally with the living accommodation, while a ground-floor bathroom and separate utility room add everyday practicality. To the rear, a peaceful courtyard garden with direct access onto Seamoor Road provides a private outdoor retreat, ideal for relaxing, entertaining or family BBQs.

The two upper floors provide four well-proportioned bedrooms, a second large bathroom, study area, airing cupboard, storage cupboard and a useful walk-in loft, offering excellent flexibility for family living, guests and working from home. A further major advantage is the private driveway providing parking for two cars, a particularly valuable feature in Westbourne where private parking is highly sought after.

The location is exceptional, with Westbourne village centre just a short stroll away, offering independent boutiques, cafés, restaurants, pubs, supermarkets, a medical centre and a wide range of everyday amenities. Bournemouth's award-winning beaches and coastline are also close by, together with attractive coastal walks and excellent transport links.

Homes of this size, character and position on R L Stevenson Avenue rarely come to market. Combining genuine Victorian heritage, generous accommodation, private parking, a courtyard garden and an outstanding village location, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive period townhouse with the space, flexibility and comfort to suit modern family life.
