Tuckers Lane, Poole

This charming, historic cottage was first constructed in 1869 as part of the Hamworthy First School. Created in the favoured Lady Wimborne architectural style so popular locally, the former school was carefully converted in 2004 to create four characterful private homes, of which this semi-detached property is the best located.

Offering bright, spacious accommodation with two double-bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, great storage and separate sitting room and kitchen/diner, this cottage has the added benefit of a sunny rear garden and off-road parking for three vehicles. Perfect for downsizers with convenient local shops, Hamworthy Park and its delightful beach all being within walking distance. Early viewing is recommended. Vendor has found their next home.
