De Montfort Road, Merley, Wimborne
OIRO £425,000 (Tenant Fees)

A spacious detached two double bedroom bungalow enjoying a desirable location in Merley, which was recently voted as the best place to live in Dorset! The bungalow has been well cared for but needs updating. Generous corner plot with a private rear garden.

Enjoying a peaceful cul-de-sac setting on this highly sought-after development, this delightful two-bedroom detached bungalow sits proudly on a generous corner plot in the popular development of Merley.

The property benefits from a spacious driveway providing off-road parking for numerous vehicles and leading to an attached single garage, which offers excellent potential for conversion into additional accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permissions. A replacement garage could be positioned at the front of the original, aligned with the bungalow's front boundary.

Internally, the bungalow offers well-proportioned accommodation throughout. The good-sized living room enjoys a dual aspect, with large windows overlooking the rear and side gardens, creating a wonderfully light and bright living space. The kitchen is also generously sized and features a window and rear door providing direct access to the private rear garden.

Both bedrooms are comfortable double rooms located at the front of the bungalow and are served by a shower wet room, with the added convenience of a separate cloakroom. The property further benefits from gas-fired central heating via radiators and double glazing.

Outside the bungalow, there is a generous corner plot with front- and side-gardens that wrap around the property. The good-sized rear garden is fully enclosed and secluded, and enjoys sunshine for most of the day.

The bungalow has been well cared for over the years but would now benefit from general updating, offering exciting potential for the new owner to remodel, extend, or improve, subject to the usual consents, and to put their own stamp on this wonderful home. This represents a rare opportunity to acquire a property with such scope in one of Dorset’s most desirable residential locations.

Merley is a highly regarded residential area offering a range of local amenities, including shops, a health practice, a first school, and a church. Regular bus services run to the coastal towns of Poole and Bournemouth, both of which provide mainline rail links to London Waterloo. Schools for all ages, including grammar schools, are within easy reach, while nearby Wimborne town centre offers an excellent selection of shops, restaurants and leisure facilities.

The area is also ideal for those who enjoy the outdoors, with delightful walks close by in Delph Woods and along the Castleman Trailway, providing scenic routes towards Wimborne and Poole.
