Handsome 6 bedroom 3500sq.ft property on a significant plot and dates back to 1906 in the Edwardian Arts & Crafts era. It has been in the same family for 24 years. Perfect summer and winter home.

A handsome 1906 Edwardian Arts & Crafts era property that has been owned by the family for 24 years. The style means high ceilings, large windows and spacious hallways which makes the property light and the individual rooms large. On the ground floor, a large internal porch also has a guest cloakroom and leads to an elegant hall off of which is the dining room space with fireplace. The large kitchen, which was extended in 2011, has eating space and a snug area. It leads to a basement music room (or gym). There is also a separate utility room. 2 magnificent living rooms offer the opportunity for adult peace. One has an open fire, the other a log burner. The first floor has 4 bedrooms, 2 en suite and the family bathroom. The second floor has a further 2 bedrooms, a hobby room, an office, and a large storage cupboard (ideal for conversion to another bathroom) The back garden is superb with 2 decked areas: The upper deck outside the kitchen was installed in 2020 and the lower garden deck in 2022. Underneath the upper deck is a woodstore and shed for bikes, garden equipment etc. The lower deck overlooks the chine woodland, and a unique feature of this property is that Number 3 owns the chine on a direct extension of the boundary and part owns 2 other parts of the chine-we’ll explain more at viewings. Improvements have taken place consistently since the owners have lived here and meticulous records for maintenance have been kept. Kitchen extension, double glazing, Google nests, consumer unit as examples. This is a perfect summer and winter house, beautifully presented.

Location

Rosemount Road is a cul de sac ensuring a tranquil environment. At this end of the road is a path leading down through the chine, a beautiful dog walk in itself and only 5 minutes to the Alum Chine beach. Turn right and you have the perfect Sunday morning or summer's evening stroll along the beachfront or promenade to Sandbanks, taking in a coffee or something stronger at the Rockwater or Jazzy's cafe. There are 7 miles of these award-winning beaches to explore. Even during the Bournemouth Air Show or all the summer fireworks, when parking for the beach is at premium you can stroll down stress free.

Now you are in Sandbanks, you can look across the whole of Poole Harbour which is the 2nd biggest natural harbour in the world and a safe haven for both mega yachts and pleasure boats with numerous marinas and moorings. Sailing events and clubs abound and this is one of the UK hubs for windsurfing and kitesurfing. You can see many a champion in these sports practising in the harbour or off the beach. It is acclaimed as the one of the safest locations to teach children. And of course, Poole Harbour is home to Sunseeker yachts and the rnli. Why stop at Sandbanks? Catch the chain ferry to Studland, gaze at some of the extraordinary seafront properties, and then explore the Purbeck Hills and get up close and personal with the famous Old Harry Rocks. The Purbeck Hills shield the area and give Poole and Bournemouth its riviera microclimate. While in Studland, it is a treat to go to the Pig on the Beach restaurant and you mustn't miss the Beer Festival at the Bankes Arms. Whilst mixing the sea and dining, if you are a boat owner the trip to the Isle of Wight is made even more worthwhile by visiting ‘The Hut’ in Colwell Bay. Closer to home as we are talking eating, there are a fantastic range of restaurants and pubs close at hand to your home. In Canford Cliffs village, take in the ever-popular Cliff gastro pub. The Canford also in the village never disappoints and it takes dogs which is a serious plus for those of us who love our dogs and pints in equal measure. The exotic Koh Nai in Lilliput serves Thai Tapas. And for special occasions the Rick Stein harbourfront restaurant is not to be missed. For schools, we are happy to give you an insight into the schools, but at Primary level Avonbourne Academy with an Ofsted rating of outstanding, and St Michaels Primary are recommended. The Grammar schools of Poole and Bournemouth are exceptionally good as are the private schools of Dumpton and Castle Court, at primary level and Clayesmore at secondary level. All run bus services from near Rosemount Road. This area is a lifestyle choice.
