Cassel Avenue, Branksome Dene Chine, Poole, BH13

There's a pleasing visual symmetry to this home with its character bay windows framing the central entrance hall. As you enter, your eyes are drawn through a squared arch to the large kitchen / diner / day room that encompasses the whole of the rear of the property. A modern kitchen fitted with all the mod cons including two double ovens, wraps around on three sides making it both practical as well as creating a feature panorama window that looks out onto the garden. A separate utility room keeps the bustle of day-to-day life hidden away. Designated dining / sofa areas decorated in a modern colour scheme offer an open-plan entertaining / relaxing space, which can be doubled in size by opening up the wall of bifold doors to use the outside deck as well. The family relaxing area connects through to one of the two front reception rooms that could be configured as home office, music / craft room, library / snug etc. A downstairs cloakroom is conveniently located in the hall. A pleasant white-washed wooden staircase leads up to the first floor landing around which are four double bedrooms. The three front bedrooms feature bay windows, two mirroring the ground floor and also benefitting from en-suite shower rooms. The third and forth bedroom on this floor share a family bath & shower room. Up another floor is a loft conversion, where the two final bedrooms are, both of which share a separate WC / wash room set into the eaves.  

The front and rear gardens are edged with mature trees and hedging, but are mainly level and laid to lawn, perfect for hosting family BBQs and games (or housing chickens as the current owners do). The garage has a clever garden room built into the rear leading to a sunbathing deck. The sun shines onto the garden from the south side for the best part of the day, or you can head to the beach via the public footpath in just a few minutes.

This period family home is in a fantastic location with a footpath to the beach at the end of the road. The villages of Canford Cliffs and Westbourne are all within easy reach. 

Branksome Dene Beach is a local hidden gem accessed by car from Pinewood Road, but tucked in the middle of Cassel Avenue (just 150m from the property) is a secret footpath down through the Pine Tree lined chine to the 10-mile stretch of award winning sandy beach. Approx. 1.5km away are the local villages of Westbourne to the north and Canford Cliffs to the west, offering plenty of restaurants, bars, cafes and boutique retail. Branksome Railway Station is 1.5miles away with direct trains to London in approx 2 hrs.
