Talbot Avenue, BH3 - £1,695,000

Property Description

This outstanding detached family home from the Arts and Crafts Edwardian era is steeped in character and listed as 'of special interest' in Bournemouth's sought after neighbourhood of Talbot Woods.

Within easy reach of Bournemouth town centre and its main transport links, this substantial property is beautifully presented and offers spacious living accommodation set in extensive private grounds with south facing gardens and an energy-efficient, secluded 24' swimming pool.

There is in excess of 4,300 sq feet of accommodation, on three floors, with six bedrooms, three bathrooms and three large reception rooms. The splendid 31' kitchen/breakfast room is the hub of the home with its French windows opening out onto the rear gardens. Set far back from the road, with its lawns, patios and a variety of seating areas and summer houses, this delightful space provides a perfect setting for outdoor summer living and entertainment with sun, shade and shelter in an oasis of calm and tranquility.

The property retains many of the Arts and Crafts original features, including a grand entrance hall with solid oak staircase, beamed ceilings, picture rails and mouldings, craftsman fireplace surrounds and a classical rear porch with terracotta tiling.

The ground floor accommodation is perfectly proportioned for modern day living and all three reception rooms feature large bay windows offering beautiful outlooks across the landscaped gardens. The two principal reception rooms offer direct access to the rear gardens and the ground floor is complete with a separate utility room and WC.

The sweeping oak staircase leads up to the first floor passing a stunning stained glass window feature to reach four of the property's bedrooms, all of which are impressive double rooms with the spacious master bedroom suite featuring fully- fitted wardrobes and a stunning master bathroom suite with dual wash hand basins, walk in shower enclosure and a circular jacuzzi bath set within the feature bay window. The first floor accommodation is complete with a further, modern fitted family bathroom and additional WC. Completing the accommodation, on the second floor, are two further double bedrooms, a modern shower room and separate WC ideal as a guest floor or self contained living area.

The property is approached via electronically operated gates into an attractive block paved driveway offering ample off road parking and a detached garage. A short walk away is the popular West Hants tennis and leisure club and the bustling high street of Winton with its variety of shops, supermarkets, pubs and restaurants.

Bournemouth Centre itself is reached by a short drive, or a pleasant stroll or cycle through Meyrick Park with its tennis, bowls and golf facilities.
