Property description

Is this the perfect victorian cottage? If not, it must come pretty close. It is immaculate both in its maintenance and its feel. It is A lovely location in an in-and-out road which means there is no through traffic and it is tranquil. With the view to the woods you could be in the countryside.

This 2 double bedroom semi-detached cottage is delightful. It could be a perfect home for many people: Young couple with a small family, downsizing and de-stressing, retirement home, a working couple. Whoever buys this property will buy it in the knowledge that they can move in without worries as the cottage has been maintained fastidiously by the vendor: New roof in 2010, chimney stack removed in 2014, extension roof revamped in 2014, easy open, easy clean picture double glazed windows fitted in 2010, boiler regularly serviced, floors stripped back and if they couldn't be stripped back, replaced with oak topped floors. Quality appliances in the kitchen and an easy to maintain garden.

The vendor is moving to Scotland so there is no chain. I asked what she loved most about the cottage and she said that it was sun-filled. And of course her pride and joy, the garden where she has pear, plum and apple trees and gooseberry and blackcurrant bushes. She tells me that the small pond is a haven for frogs and toads. And it is the first time I have been told that a garden is 'Bee Friendly'-what a great saying. It is south west facing so even if you are not green-fingered you will enjoy sitting out on the patio, eating(including your home grown fruits), having a drink, or just relaxing. The patio has a quirky blue summerhouse/shed and a discreet wall mounted pull out washing line. From the patio there is a side gate and a pathway to the front of the property, where there is off road parking for a car.

Inside the property you will find a modern fully fitted kitchen with quality appliances. It is very user-friendly in its layout and even the washing up in the new granite sink has its perks as the window in front of you looks out over the garden. The living room and dining area are separated by an arch, the nooks ideal for furniture and the floor in keeping with the cottage feel. The fire can be opened out to be real or gas. The boiler and meters sit perfectly under the stairs in well designed timber cupboards. Upstairs to 2 double bedrooms(one with custom built wardrobes), the modern bathroom and the fully insulated loft.

The location is peaceful in a quiet road yet the shops and eateries of Ashley Road are a few minutes walk away. Likewise the retail park is close by with the likes of John Lewis Home, Homebase, Laura Ashley Home, Pets at Home, Home Bargains and for the health conscious, the dw fitness centre. Branksome Recreation Ground and playground is just around the corner for exercising yourselves, your dogs or teaching the children how to ride their bikes.

Local transport links are excellent: Bus routes to both Bournemouth and Poole and the Wessex Way is less than a mile away providing dual carriageway routes out of Bournemouth to the New Forest, Southampton and beyond. Branksome railway station is also within a mile. And of course the famous beaches of Sandbanks are less than 2 miles away.

And finally the catchment area is blessed with top quality schools: St Luke's, St Mark's and practically on the doorstep, Heatherlands Primary School.

Just bring your furniture-you won't need your tool kit.
