Property description
A Victorian Gem in the Heart of Broadstone "The Beeches" York Road.
Step inside this elegant detached Victorian home and discover a property where timeless character meets modern family living. Beautifully presented with high ceilings, sash windows, exposed floorboards, and period detailing, this is a home designed for both comfort and charm.
From the moment you walk through the solid hardwood door into the welcoming hallway, the warmth of this property is immediately apparent. The sitting room is bathed in natural light from dual-aspect sash windows and centres around a traditional open fireplace-perfect for relaxing evenings or entertaining guests. The spacious kitchen and dining area opens directly onto the south-facing garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that's ideal for summer gatherings and family life.
Versatility is at the heart of this home: the additional ground floor room, with its bay window and built-in storage, works beautifully as a study, playroom, or fourth bedroom. Upstairs, three generous double bedrooms offer restful retreats, each filled with character and light. Two well-appointed bathrooms, including a family bathroom with both bath and shower, ensure practicality for busy households.
Outside, the property continues to impress. A private driveway leads to a single garage with further space for additional parking or even a camper van. To the other side of the house lies a generous side garden, which not only enhances the sense of space but also offers excellent potential for extending the property (subject to the usual consents). The rear garden, perfectly positioned to the south, is a tranquil haven with lawns, mature borders, and patio areas where you can unwind or entertain.
This home enjoys a superb position on one of Broadstone's popular residential roads, just a short stroll from the bustling village centre. Here you'll find everyday essentials and little luxuries alike, from Marks & Spencer Foodhall, Tesco Express, Costa Coffee, and the award-winning Mark Bennett Patisserie, to welcoming cafes, restaurants, and boutiques. Fitness and leisure are equally well catered for with The Junction Sports & Leisure Centre nearby, while golf enthusiasts will delight in the world-class Broadstone Golf Club, just 0.9 miles away. Considered one of the finest unspoilt heathland courses in the South of England, it proudly sits within the Top 100 courses in the UK. Spanning 250 acres of rolling terrain, its fairways flow freely through natural heathland, with several holes offering magnificent far-reaching views. For even more sporting and wellness facilities, the David Lloyd Club is just 2.1 miles away.
In recent years, Broadstone has also established a vibrant yet sophisticated nightlife. Enjoy the sunny beer garden at The Blackwater Stream, relaxed evenings on the sun-drenched patio at The Tap & Grape, fine cuisine and fine wines at Whittles, and luxurious Sunday roasts, open fires, live bands, and the outdoor terrace at The Goods Yard.
Families are particularly drawn to Broadstone for its excellent local schools, including Broadstone First and Middle Schools and the highly regarded Corfe Hills Secondary School. It is no surprise that Broadstone was named the third best place to live in England in a 2017 study by the Royal Mail and the Centre for Economic and Business Research, which considered factors such as work-life balance, school quality, and open spaces. The area remains hugely popular with both families and retirees for its combination of respected schools, wide-ranging local amenities, and proximity to both green spaces and the coast.
Slightly further afield, you can enjoy some of Dorset and Hampshire's most celebrated destinations: the golden sands of Sandbanks Beach just 6.9 miles away, the natural beauty of the New Forest National Park only 14 miles away, and excellent transport links with Poole train station (4.5 miles) providing a direct service to London Waterloo in just over two hours.
