Brixey Road, Parkstone, Poole

HOUSE & ANNEX:

This two-in-one property has versatility at its core. The main house offers a lovely 4-bedroom family home with a new (2023) custom crafted Holta kitchen in Amtico Bianco, a Belfast sink, Neff appliances and wood effect herringbone luxury vinyl. There is an informal day dining area positioned by the south facing windows and side door to the garden. The main reception room has real French Oak flooring and can be zoned into a cosy lounge, a formal dining area or a reading / hobbies / playroom with a lovely dual coal / wood burner for warmth and atmosphere. Upstairs, are the four bedrooms, a large family bathroom with corner bath, and ensuite to the main bedroom.

The Annex can be reached via its own entrance to the rear of the main property. It offers a kitchen, bathroom, double bedroom and lounge with French doors out to the garden patio. This self-contained unit is ideal for multi-generational living, or potential to be rented out, or to run a boutique business from home. An additional council tax may apply but is currently exempt.

GARDEN:

The large approx. 102ft garden is a huge selling point of this property, offering pockets of potential whatever your hobby! The sun follows you around the garden, from morning coffee on the patio to evening sundowners on the deck of the ‘man cave’, where a nautical theme — complete with pebbles, a planted plastic boat, and decorative oars — evokes a calming, beachside vibe. This rear section of the garden is almost a separate garden in itself. The current owners have custom built two raised vegetable beds for the keen kitchen gardener. There is precedent for neighbouring properties to sell the lower end of the garden for housing, so the new owners could benefit from substantial income at a later stage. The garden immediately to the rear of the house has space for a large Rhino greenhouse, which would excite the keenest of green fingers, a log store, three built-in water buts, a fire pit / BBQ circle with custom-built Purbeck stone seating leading to a small rockery that frames the grass area.

SOLAR PANELS & GARAGE:

This property has super efficient running costs thanks to a roof load of south facing solar panels installed in 2011 (freshly cleaned for maximum efficiency for the new owners) and are index linked to the national grid until 2036. The solar panels generate approx. £2,000 a year income, as well as keeping running costs to a minimum on sunny days. With the added bonus of a east / west orientation garden means the sun shines all day long along the south side of the garden, perfect for drying all that eco-efficient laundry in the sunshine. There is also a single garage that is dream for any car enthusiast, with a small mechanic pit for tinkering and is ideal for storing watersports equipment, boats and bikes. A set of full height gates (installed in 2020) to the side of the house provides access to the garage at rear. Block paving completes the access.

EV Charger can be fitted.

*Solar efficiency is weather dependent.

LOCATION:

Brixey Road is located in one of the highest elevations in Poole, so whilst there are no views from the property, you feel a sense of space. The green vista to the rear of the property is thanks to the leafy edges of the historic Branksome Cemetery with a Commonwealth war memorial. Popular Ashley Road is just 850m down the hill where you can pick up every amenity and a little further on is the vibrant hub of Ashley Cross.
