3 Bedroom End of Terrace House, Gold Drive, St. Leonards, BH24

Completed in 2018 and still covered by the remainder of its building warranty, this contemporary three-bedroom end-of-terrace home combines modern efficiency with everyday comfort. Positioned in a quiet cul-de-sac within St Leonards, it’s ideally placed for access to Ringwood, Ferndown, and the A31, making it a perfect base for both families and professionals.

The entrance hall sets a welcoming tone with its wood-effect LVT flooring that continues through to the kitchen dining room. There’s a cloakroom to one side, as well as an under stairs cupboard providing useful storage for coats, shoes, and household items.

At the front of the home, the living room offers a cosy yet refined space with a feature panelled wall and a large front aspect window allowing plenty of light. To the rear, the kitchen dining room serves as the social heart of the home, fitted with sleek handleless cabinetry, an integrated oven and four-ring gas hob with extractor, upright fridge freezer, and dishwasher. A corner cabinet discreetly houses the Worcester boiler, and a stylish peninsula breakfast bar offers space for casual dining. French doors open directly onto the patio, creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing provides access to three bedrooms, the family bathroom, and a useful airing cupboard with a pressurised hot water cylinder. The principal bedroom includes a built-in wardrobe and a private ensuite shower room with contemporary fittings. Two further bedrooms sit at the rear overlooking the garden, one a generous double and the other a perfect single or home office.

Outside, the rear garden is well designed for low maintenance yet offers a lovely sense of greenery. A patio extends from the rear doors, leading onto a central lawn bordered by shrubs and a raised decked area ideal for outdoor dining. A mature eucalyptus tree provides character and shade, while an aluminium shed offers useful storage. A secure side gate gives access to the front, where there’s an allocated parking space and visitor bays nearby.

This energy-conscious home is further enhanced by three roof-mounted solar panels, helping to reduce running costs, and FTTP full-fibre broadband, providing ultrafast internet connectivity directly to the property, perfect for remote working or streaming.
