Description
Savills are delighted to offer for sale this magnificent and charming residence located in an incredibly sought after road with the golden sandy beaches under 500 metres away.
On the market for the first time in circa 44 years this property is a real hidden gem in Bournemouth bursting with character and potential. The property has been lovingly cared for and meticulously maintained by the current owners for all those years and is now presented to the market as a very rare opportunity to acquire one of Bournemouth’s classic residences.
The property itself spans an impressive 7859 total square feet of internal area which is sitting on a delightful and private plot with both manicured front and rear level gardens. The property is currently split as the main substantial residence and a self-contained lodge. There is a superb large south facing chalet in the rear garden.
The main house consists of a palatial entrance hallway, kitchen and utility room, dining room, drawing room, morning room, conservatory, six bedrooms, three bathrooms, WC, a home office, gym plus ample storage. The house is very versatile in its use due to the amount of rooms and accommodation on offer and could be configured to suit a wide range of buyer. Externally there is a beautifully landscaped front garden which create the feeling of grandeur from the moment you arrive and a stunning rear garden benefitting from superb privacy and plenty of sunshine. The main house has a number of fireplaces, decorative features, excellent high ceilings and much more.
The adjoining self-contained lodge has its own pedestrian walk way, front door and walled private garden providing separation to the main house. Ideal if the property is rented or being used by guests. Internally there is an entrance hallway, living room, kitchen, WC, three bedrooms and one bathroom. This accommodation would have originally been living quarters for household staff and would have been connected internally with a doorway. Meaning the lodge could be kept separate as it currently is or incorporated back into the main house.
This glorious home must be viewed in person to fully appreciate the many beautiful features, the feeling of space, the excellent accommodation on offer and the immediately noticeable warm and homely feeling this property gives.
Agency note: Lodge is under separate council tax band.

Location
Mckinley Road is an prestigious location where some of the finest original Bournemouth residences can be found. The Middle Chine footpath is only some 320 metres (approximately) from the property and provides direct access down through the beautiful Chine to the promenade and its Blue flag multi award winning Sandy beaches where there are a number of restaurants/cafes. During the summer months a land train runs along the promenade to Bournemouth and Boscombe piers. The popular and vibrant Westbourne Village is a little under a mile away renowned for its boutique shopping, restaurants and wine bars. The Bournemouth/Poole area is well known for its natural beauty and micro-climate with a reputation for having mild winters and more sunshine hours than most other parts of the country.
The area is further enhanced by excellent road, rail and air communications. Mainline rail services operate from Bournemouth Station, offering direct South West Trains service to London Waterloo from approximately 2 hours. There is comprehensive shopping at the local town centres of Poole, Bournemouth and further afield at Southampton and Salisbury.
Good local schools are numerous and include Canford School, Bournemouth and Poole Grammar schools, Bournemouth Collegiate, Talbot Heath and Park School.
Championship golf is available at Parkstone Golf Course and other local highly regarded clubs at Ferndown and Broadstone. Along the picturesque shoreline of nearby Poole Harbour are a large number of marinas with sailing and wind/kite surfing facilities.
Arts are an important aspect of Poole's creativity and heritage and the area has a strong, developing arts scene. The Lighthouse, which is Poole’s Centre for the Arts is the largest regional centre in the UK and home to the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.
Local venues have regularly hosted acclaimed theatre productions as well as high-profile music concerts. Other theatres available are The Pavilion in Bournemouth, The Playhouse Salisbury and the Mayflower in Southampton.
The local area is a haven for nature lovers and there are many events in the area that allow you to experience the richness of wildlife in Poole and Dorset. There are bespoke bird-watching cruises and nature trails to enjoy.
