About
GUIDE PRICE £650,000-£675,000 Tucked away on a sought-after cul-de-sac in the desirable area of Southbourne, this delightful three-bedroom detached character home blends period charm with comfortable family living.
From the moment you arrive, the property's attractive frontage, bay fronted window and original brickwork hint at the warmth and personality found throughout.
Step inside to a welcoming entrance hall that leads to bright, generously proportioned dual-aspect reception room, full of natural light and retaining lovely character features such as tall-ceilings & elegant French doors opening onto a private and beautifully foliaged front garden.
To the rear of the property you will find the kitchen-diner which offers a practical and sociable space, with ample room for dining and direct access to the rear garden - perfect for everyday family life and entertaining alike.
Cleverly tucked beneath the stairs, a convenient downstairs WC is neatly positioned, making clever use of space without compromising the home's character.
The property has also been newly fitted LED lighting, with a new EICR certification.
Upstairs, three well-appointed bedrooms offer comfortable and versatile accommodation for families, professionals or those seeking a home office.
The principal bedroom enjoys a peaceful outlook over the front lawn and ample space for freestanding furniture, while the second double provides equally flexible living for family, guests or a growing household.
The third bedroom lends itself perfectly for a nursery, child's room or dedicated home office.
The family bathroom is generously sized, offering both a separate shower enclosure and a large bath - a rare luxury that gives real flexibility.
While the suite would now benefit from modernisation, this presents an excellent opportunity to put their own stamp on the space and create a stylish bathroom perfectly suited to their taste.
Outside, the property benefits from a rear private garden, ideal for relaxing or alfresco dining, along with a long driveway providing off-road parking for four cars and a garage offering an additional 178 sq.ft.
(16.5sq.m.) of floorspace, perfect for a conversion to fit your needs.
Ideally positioned, Donnelly Road is just moments away from Southbourne's and Tuckton's vibrant high-streets, with their independent cafes, shops and restaurants, while the award-winning sandy beaches and clifftop walks are within easy reach.
Excellent local schools and convenient transport links make this an enviable location for buyers seeking the very best coastal living.
An early viewing is highly recommend to fully appreciate the charm, space and location this wonderful home has to offer. EPC Rating: D
