Corbin & Co are delighted to offer for sale an attractive and characterful 1930s detached Arts & Crafts family home, quietly positioned on a generous corner plot in the popular residential area of Bearwood, Bournemouth. Combining original charm and character with modern fittings and thoughtful improvements, this delightful three/four bedroom detached house offers spacious and versatile accommodation, making it an ideal family home. A particular highlight is the beautifully established cottage-style rear garden, which is private, enclosed and filled with mature plants, shrubs and trees. The property is approached via a covered entrance porch which opens into a welcoming reception hall, complete with Karndean flooring and useful under-stair storage. The charming dual-aspect sitting room is full of character, featuring an attractive bay window overlooking the front, exposed-style brick fireplace with wood-burning stove, and two shelved alcoves and window to the side aspect. This is a warm and inviting space, perfect for relaxing. The separate dining room continues the character theme with an attractive fireplace, built-in shelved storage cupboard and French doors opening directly onto the side garden. There is also a versatile study/bedroom four, providing an excellent option for those working from home, accommodating guests or requiring flexible family space. A walkway leads through to the modern yet sympathetic kitchen, which is particularly well equipped with a good range of fitted units, quartz worktops, hob, concealed cooker hood, double oven and integrated dishwasher. There is also space for an American-style fridge/freezer and further Karndean flooring. The useful separate utility room houses the gas central heating boiler, with plumbing and space for a washing machine and a door providing access to the rear garden.

The principal bedroom features fitted wardrobes, while there are two further good-sized double bedrooms, one enjoying a pleasant side aspect and the other overlooking the rear garden. These rooms are served by a modern family bathroom. Outside, the property occupies an enviable elevated corner position with a pleasant wooded outlook. A long tarmac driveway with attractive brick edging provides ample off-road parking and leads to a detached garage, which benefits from double doors, power and lighting. The front garden is laid predominantly to lawn with attractive flower borders and a wide established shrub bed. Wrought iron gates to either side of the property provide access to the private rear garden. The beautifully maintained rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features.
