This UNIQUE STUDIO APARTMENT is situated within the STUNNING PERIOD PROPERTY CONVERSION of "THE OLD FIRE HOUSE" on Wimborne Road. Accessed via a WELL-MAINTAINED COMMUNAL ENTRANCE HALLWAY, the apartment occupies a SECOND-FLOOR SPACE WITHIN THE ROOFLINE, creating a distinctive living environment.

The property is WELL-APPOINTED with high-quality FIXTURES, FITTINGS, and DÉCOR, including a ROOMY and CHIC SHOWER ROOM. Other benefits include a SHARE OF FREEHOLD with a 994-YEAR LEASE, GAS CENTRAL HEATING, a C-RATED EPC, and HIGH-PERFORMANCE GLAZING. Furthermore, this property is offered for sale FULLY FURNISHED.

Located on WIMBORNE ROAD, the property is close to LOCAL SHOPS, RESTAURANTS, and TRANSPORT LINKS. Both BOURNEMOUTH UNIVERSITY and the ARTS UNIVERSITY BOURNEMOUTH are within walking distance.

AGENTS NOTE Enquiries have been made as to the prospect of installing either a mezzanine level, or building a stud partition to create a separate bedroom. In both instances, the input of a structural engineer would be required before consent could be granted. However, should a structural engineer confirm that the building can safely accommodate the extra load, then a license can be granted for such works.

All enquiries, costs, remedial works and licenses, would be borne by the purchaser/owner and the managing accepts no liability. Please note, there may be additional unforeseen costs.
