About
This impressive five-bedroom extended detached period home occupies a generous corner plot and offers an exceptional blend of character, space and future potential.

The ground floor provides well-balanced and versatile accommodation, including a charming living room and a separate dining room, both benefitting from feature bay windows and doors opening directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
At the heart of the home is a spacious and contemporary kitchen/dining room, thoughtfully designed with a peninsula and ample space for family dining and entertaining.
A separate utility room provides additional practicality, with a courtesy door leading into the single garage, while a cloakroom/WC completes the ground floor.
To the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a stylish and contemporary en-suite shower room.
There are three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, all serviced by a modern family bathroom and an additional separate WC, ideal for busy households.
Stairs rise to the second floor, where a further double bedroom offers excellent flexibility - perfect as a teenager’s retreat, guest suite or a dedicated home office.
Externally, the property truly excels.
The generous corner plot provides tremendous scope for further extension or even the creation of a separate dwelling or annexe (subject to the relevant planning permissions), making it an ideal choice for multi-generational living.
The gardens are a particular highlight, with mature planting enveloping the property and creating a private, established setting.
A large lawn forms the main garden, while a secondary garden (accessed directly from the kitchen) offers an ideal space for entertaining and potential for further development.
A charming veranda overlooks the grounds, providing a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings.
The property can be accessed from both De Redvers Road and Durlston Road and there is a good-sized driveway with parking for numerous vehicles and a single garage.
