Bingham Avenue, Lilliput, Poole BH14
Built in 1921 as the former local police house, this distinctive Lilliput home combines period character with a thoughtfully extended and modernised layout. Private established gardens surround the house, complemented by two separate vehicular approaches. The main driveway from Bingham Avenue leads directly to the covered entrance porch, while gated access from Lilliput Road opens onto additional hardstanding with useful potential for boat storage. Three double bedrooms include a ground floor principal suite opening directly onto the garden. Offered with no forward chain.
About the property
The driveway from Bingham Avenue creates the principal approach to the house, leading directly to a covered entrance porch and welcoming reception hall with useful understairs storage.
The L shaped sitting and dining room extends across the front and rear of the house, allowing each area to feel defined while remaining comfortably connected. An open fireplace provides a focal point within the sitting area, while the dining space accommodates a substantial table and enjoys an outlook towards the rear garden.
The traditionally styled kitchen, with the original stable door, provides an extensive range of cabinetry and work surfaces, integrated appliances and space for informal breakfast dining. Access to the side of the house adds further practicality.
A defining feature of the accommodation is the ground floor principal bedroom. Positioned at the rear, it incorporates a dressing area and en suite shower room, with direct access onto the garden. Its separation from the remaining bedrooms creates a flexible arrangement for family life or visiting guests.
Upstairs, two further well proportioned double bedrooms incorporate fitted furniture and are served by the family bathroom.
Outside
The private gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with mature planted borders and outdoor storage sheds. Two separate vehicular approaches add considerable flexibility. The Bingham Avenue driveway leads directly to the covered entrance porch, while separate gated access from Lilliput Road opens onto additional hardstanding, providing further parking and potential space for boat storage.
