Property Summary
Full Details
Roberts are delighted to offer for sale this semi-detached house, located in Ripon Road in the popular Winton / Moordown areas of Bournemouth. A standout feature of the property is its impressive size, offering approximately 121 square metres (1,302 square feet) of accommodation. This makes it larger than many similarly aged detached houses in higher price brackets, representing excellent value for buyers seeking generous and versatile living space.
Dating back to the 1930s, the property also boasts an interesting history, with its distinctive shopfront façade reflecting its past use as a confectionery shop with owner’s accommodation above. The building was converted back into a house in the 1980s, resulting in the spacious and flexible layout seen today.
The property is conveniently located within walking distance of the Wimborne Road shopping area, with a range of amenities, schools, and transport links nearby. Well-regarded schools, including St Warburga's Primary School and the Bournemouth Grammar Schools, are easily accessible. Additional convenience shops can be found nearby on Ripon Road and Malvern Road, while the A338 provides excellent road connectivity out of Bournemouth.

The Accommodation
The property offers a substantial amount of living space, comprising three reception rooms, one of which is currently used as a ground floor bedroom (bedroom three).
The front reception room is particularly spacious, formerly serving as the shop’s main retail area, and benefits from two large west-facing windows that provide excellent natural light.
This room leads through to a hallway, which in turn gives access to the ground floor bedroom and continues into the open-plan kitchen and dining room area.
The kitchen is practical and well-proportioned, offering space for all essential appliances along with a good range of storage units. It flows into a raised dining area, creating a subtle separation of space, with double doors opening directly onto the rear garden.
Stairs from the entrance hallway lead to the first floor, where the landing provides access to two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Given the size of the current bathroom, there is potential to reconfigure the layout to create a third bedroom on this level if required, with scope to relocate the bathroom to the front of the property.

Driveway, Garden and Tandem Double Garage
To the front, the property is laid to hardstanding, providing off-road parking for one to two vehicles, depending on size. A shared driveway runs alongside the property, leading to double gates and an additional parking area suitable for a larger vehicle.
Beyond this is a tandem double garage, measuring approximately 4.3m by 2.8m, offering further storage or parking options. Adjacent to the garage is a private lawned garden, enclosed by fencing and benefiting from a good degree of seclusion from neighbouring properties.
