Full Description: Nestled within the prestigious and secure, gated community of Brompton Court on St Stephens Road, this beautifully presented two-bedroom, single-storey bungalow represents the finest in retirement living. The property, set in impeccably maintained communal gardens, offers a private entrance porch leading into an incredibly spacious living/dining area. Dual-aspect windows flood the room with light while offering serene views across the lush grounds and iconic former chapel.

At the heart of the home lies a freshly refurbished kitchen, complete with integrated appliances, ample worktop space, and an electric-assisted window overlooking the greenery. The wide hallway hosts two generous double bedrooms—the principal featuring mirrored built-in wardrobes—alongside a large family bathroom combining a walk-in shower and separate low-level bath, catering to both luxury and accessibility. Two large storage cupboards ensure an uncluttered and organised living space.

More than just a stand alone home, this bungalow benefits from Brompton Court’s full-service retirement offering. Residents enjoy round-the-clock access to a duty manager and emergency call system, alongside nightly standby support. The gated estate features secure residents’ parking, buggy storage, an electric vehicle charging point, and wheelchair-accessible pathways throughout.

On-site amenities elevate daily life: a daily three-course restaurant serves freshly prepared luncheon fare; communal facilities include a former chapel turned owners’ lounge, a dining room, hobbies room, laundry services, and a guest suite for visiting family and friends. A lively social calendar—featuring coffee mornings, music evenings, themed events, quizzes, and summer barbecues—nurtures community spirit in this Grade II-listed estate.

Positioned in a tranquil courtyard setting yet within easy walking distance of Bournemouth town centre, the Lower Gardens, award-winning beaches, shopping, dining, healthcare, and transport links, this bungalow strikes a perfect balance between convenience, elegance, and security.

No onward chain. Viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate this rare, light-filled, and exceptionally managed retirement home within one of Bournemouth’s most desirable gated communities.
