From our office in Southbourne Grove take the right hand turning into Grand Avenue. Take the first right into Pine Avenue and the first left into Southern Road. The subject property can be found after a short distance on the left hand side. 

This large detached property is set in a highly sought after location between local cliff tops and the popular Southbourne Grove with its wide range of shopping facilities, eateries and bus routes leading to both Bournemouth and Christchurch town centres. 

Formerly a guest house the owners have not traded for some time but we understand the property still to be registered as such with the local council and both a fire alarm system and emergency lighting are installed hence the property would make an ideal purchase for those looking for a home and income or Bed and Breakfast type property. Alternatively subject to a change of use and modification works the property would make a large family home in a highly sought after location.

With a range of character features still in situ and featuring magnificent corner bays the property is entered through an impressive period door with stained glass detail which leads to a porch having double doors through to a large entrance hall with an impressive staircase to the first floor.

To the front of property can be found the lounge and a ground floor bedroom with en-suite shower. To the rear there is a large dining room adjacent to the kitchen, the kitchen having a door leading to the rear entrance/utility/store. An \‘owners\‘ double bedroom is set to the rear of dining room and also has an en-suite shower.

The first floor is served by a roomy landing and offers four double bedrooms all of which have en-suite facilities - three shower rooms and one bathroom.

The top floor offers a further three bedrooms which will again all take a double bed. These are served by a single shower room through which access can be gained to a good sized store room.

Outside to the front there is off road parking for several cars with a wide walkway/drive leading down the side of property to front entrance door and giving access to the rear garden which is laid to low maintenance with loose stone and enclosed by wooden fencing. 

The property is presented in good order although would benefit from updating and/or maintenance in places giving the opportunity to personalise/alter to taste, whether as a family home or business. A property of great potential and size that will suit a wide range of purchaser we strongly recommend internal viewing to appreciate the opportunity. Please call the sellers chosen sole agents to arrange your early inspection.
