Longham Farm Close is a select development enjoying a unique location, setback from Ringwood Road, offering a lifestyle opportunity combining the best of luxurious and exceptionally spacious modern accommodation within a green belt setting.

Longham Farm Close is approached via a private road offering access to just four similar barn style homes built in 2008 and has been sympathetically designed to reflect the original 18th Century farm on the site on which the development was built.
Upon entering the property, you are immediately impressed with the stunning and exceptionally spacious reception hall which is overlooked by a galleried landing with a feature full height vaulted ceiling.

This impressive entrance certainly sets the tone for the generous and impeccably presented accommodation that you will find throughout this wonderful property.

Off the reception hall you can find a downstairs cloakroom with a ceramic tiled floor, vanity unit wash hand basin and low flush wc.

Double doors from the reception hall welcome you into the large living room, which is a lovely light and bright living space enjoying a wonderful dual aspect with two sets of bifold doors and a further set of French doors inviting you out to the gardens. The central focal point to this room is the attractive fireplace with inset, remote controlled, living flame gas stove.

An impressively spacious large separate dining room again enjoys a set of bifold doors inviting you out to the rear garden. The third large reception room is currently used as a study/home office with window to the front aspect, served by a strong and reliable broadband connection.

The striking and beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room is superbly finished with an extensive range of bespoke timber wall and floor units with granite work surfaces. There is also an attractive large ceramic tiled floor and integrated appliances including a five-ring induction hob with feature cooker hood over, double oven and grill, space for an American style fridge freezer and integrated dishwasher.

Further storage can be found in the generous double doored airing cupboard.

The main bedroom is particularly spacious, enjoying a dual aspect creating a lovely light and bright room with a feature triangular window with fitted plantation shutters to the front aspect. French doors and windows open out on to the balcony which provides delightful views over the garden and adjoining land
eighbouring fields. This bedroom also enjoys the benefit of a large walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious ensuite cloakroom with tiled floors and half tiled walls, vanity unit wash hand basin and concealed low flush wc.

Bedroom two/guest bedroom is also a generous double bedroom with the benefit of two double doored built-in wardrobes, a Juliette balcony with French doors providing a view over the rear garden and glimpses of the adjacent golf course to the rear.

Outside the property is approached off Ringwood Road via an attractive close which in turn leads to a private driveway to several similar properties. The property sits within a brick paved courtyard offering visitor parking for several vehicles and benefits from a covered car port and the double garage with remote controlled up and over door, power and light, personal connecting door to the utility room and further rear door to the garden. Wall mounted Glow Worm central heating boiler.

The property is deceptively large and is detached with gated brick pathways either side of the house leading to the south facing, generous L shaped rear garden. The rear garden wraps around the property and is beautifully landscaped and well maintained with extensive Indian stone patio areas and predominantly laid to lawn with well stocked flower and shrub borders. A particular feature of the garden is the large timber decked sun terrace, offering a wonderful space for al fresco entertaining. The garden enjoys a backdrop which in summer is screened by the boundary to Dudsbury Golf Course, offering a high degree of seclusion. Outside lighting, outside water tap and the paved patio area extends around the rear of the property with access, from the living room, dining room and kitchen. The garden is a particular feature of this property and certainly needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.

AGENTS NOTE: - This property benefits from the use of a large private Sewage treatment plant serving the four houses on the close plus one other property.

The new owner will need to become a director of the resident's management company which is responsible for the shared areas jointly owned by the five properties. Each household pays £50 per month (£600per annum) into a company sinking fund bank account and this then covers maintenance/emptying of the sewage plant, public liability insurance, electricity for the street lighting and grounds maintenance.

The property is ideally situated to benefit from close proximity to all the amenities of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, including the myriad of water sports on offer in Poole Harbour, miles of sandy beaches and vibrant culture and nightlife. In addition, there is very easy and convenient access to the New Forest National Park, the Jurrasic Coast and the beautiful countryside of Dorset: Excellent rail/road links to London are a further benefit.

Ferndown Town Centre offers an excellent range of shopping, leisure and recreational facilities including a Marks and Spencer food hall, a leisure and fitness centre and two world renowned Championship golf courses. Extensive areas of green belt are close by, including Longham Lakes reservoirs and nature reserve. All of the above offer many opportunities for beautiful countryside walks and other outdoor pursuits.
