Christopher Crescent, Oakdale, Poole

NO CHAIN - Set in a popular part of Oakdale, this three-bedroom family home is offered with no forward chain and gives a buyer the chance to update and put their own stamp on a well-proportioned house in a sought-after location.

The accommodation opens with an entrance hallway, which leads to a useful downstairs cloakroom. The lounge is the main living space and opens through to a conservatory, which adds a second reception area overlooking the garden. The kitchen completes the ground floor.

Upstairs there are two good-sized double bedrooms and a single bedroom, which would suit a nursery, a child’s room or a home office. They are served by a shower room.

Outside, the rear garden has been laid out for low maintenance, which will suit buyers who would rather enjoy their outside space than spend weekends looking after it. A shared driveway leads to a garage, which provides parking and storage.

The property would benefit from some refurbishment, and the price reflects this. That makes it a good opportunity for a family looking to add value, or for anyone wanting a home in Oakdale they can modernise to their own taste. Because there is no onward chain, the purchase can move at the buyer’s pace.
