Garland Road, Poole

Built circa 1910-1915, this attractive Victorian residence was converted in the 1960s into two separate, self-contained flats. Offering a wealth of period charm and character, this delightful ground floor flat is now available on the open market for the first time in over 40 years, presenting a rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine character in a highly desirable location.
Situated within the highly sought-after conservation area of Heckford Park and benefiting from participation in the local Neighbourhood Watch scheme, this charming two-bedroom ground floor flat offers a wonderful blend of character, space, security, and convenience in a popular residential setting.
Upon arrival, you are greeted by a bright and welcoming entrance hallway leading to the property's private front door. The spacious lounge, positioned at the front of the home, is filled with natural light and showcases an array of attractive period features, including high ceilings and a central gas fireplace, creating a warm and inviting living space.
Leading from the hallway, the generous main bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and a large window that allows plenty of natural daylight to flood the room. The second bedroom is also well-proportioned, featuring built-in wardrobes and pleasant views overlooking the courtyard and patio area to the rear of the property.
To the rear of the property is a well-appointed fitted kitchen featuring quality oak units with soft-close drawers and cupboards, complemented by attractive oak worktops. The kitchen provides an abundance of storage and workspace and includes a freestanding gas cooker with four-burner hob, oven and grill, along with a washing machine and fridge freezer, all of which may be included should the purchaser wish them to remain.
Additional storage is available beneath the staircase, providing a practical solution for household items and everyday essentials.
Completing the accommodation is a bright, fully tiled bathroom fitted with a walk-in shower, WC, and wash hand basin.
A UPVC door from the kitchen leads into a useful rear porch area, which houses the gas-fired boiler, installed approximately four years ago. From here, access is provided to the delightful external garden space. Surrounded by mature trees and established shrubs, the outdoor area offers a peaceful retreat. A patio running alongside the property provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining, entertaining guests, or simply relaxing in the warmer months. An external gate provides convenient direct access onto Kingston Road.
This attractive ground floor flat presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a characterful home in one of Heckford Park's most desirable locations. With its Victorian origins, generous accommodation, private garden, useful storage, modern kitchen, and first availability in over four decades, this is a truly special property not to be missed.
