5 bed detached house for sale

De Redvers Road, Lower Parkstone BH14

This impressive five-bedroom extended detached period home occupies a generous corner plot and offers an exceptional blend of character, space and future potential. The current owners have carefully retained many original features while introducing sympathetic improvements to suit modern family living.

The ground floor provides well-balanced and versatile accommodation, including a charming living room and a separate dining room, both benefitting from feature bay windows and doors opening directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

At the heart of the home is a spacious and contemporary kitchen/dining room, thoughtfully designed with a peninsula and ample space for family dining and entertaining. A separate utility room provides additional practicality, with a courtesy door leading into the single garage, while a cloakroom/WC completes the ground floor.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a stylish and contemporary en-suite shower room. There are three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, all serviced by a modern family bathroom and an additional separate WC, ideal for busy households. Stairs rise to the second floor, where a further double bedroom offers excellent flexibility - perfect as a teenager’s retreat, guest suite or a dedicated home office.

Externally, the property truly excels. The generous corner plot provides tremendous scope for further extension or even the creation of a separate dwelling or annexe (subject to the relevant planning permissions), making it an ideal choice for multi-generational living.

The gardens are a particular highlight, with mature planting enveloping the property and creating a private, established setting. A large lawn forms the main garden, while a secondary garden (accessed directly from the kitchen) offers an ideal space for entertaining and potential for further development. A charming veranda overlooks the grounds, providing a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

The property can be accessed from both De Redvers Road and Durlston Road and there is a good-sized driveway with parking for numerous vehicles and a single garage.
