Charming detached house located in the sought after location of Branksome Park, ideally located close to Branksome Chine Beach and the shops and facilities of Westbourne.

Description

Albury House is a charming detached house located on a prestigious tree lined road in the exclusive residential area of Branksome Park. The local shops and facilities of Westbourne are approximately half a mile away from the property and the local award-winning sandy beach at Branksome Chine is just over a half a mile in the other direction. The property is accessed via a part shared driveway with two entrances, one with electric gates that leads through to the rear, and the other to a large driveway that provides parking for a number of cars.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged with all of the principle rooms benefitting from the southerly aspect to the front. The spacious ground floor comprises a good size entrance hall, a large triple aspect sitting room with feature fireplace and sliding doors out to the front garden, dining room, study, and a fitted kitchen with breakfast area, utility, pantry, and cloakroom. There is covered access from the utility out to a double garage, which has an electronic up and over door. There is an electric awning to the outside wall of the sitting room for cover during the warmer seasons.

On the first floor, there is a generous main bedroom with built in cupboards, an en suite shower room and a balcony. Bedroom two also has its own en suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, both of which with built in cupboards. The separate family bathroom serves bedrooms three and four.

Externally, there is a delightful southerly facing front garden to the front with low maintenance artificial lawn and attractive landscaped borders. To the rear, there is a car port as well as a wine store.

The property has been enjoyed by the first and current owners for over 35 years and we would highly recommend a viewing in person to appreciate all that it has to offer.
