Beach life is on your doorstep at this very charming home in Sandbanks where every day feels like a holiday!
Uniquely situated to take advantage of Harbour Views from the terrace and just steps away from a beautiful sandy Blue Flag beach this detached house has undergone a complete refurbishment by the current owner.
Tucked away off the main road on a quiet side street, this lovely property is quite literally a hidden treasure! A large and pretty terrace stretches across the front of the ground floor with the aspect and positioning affording gorgeous harbour views, it's a perfect vantage point to enjoy spectacular harbour sunsets and a wonderful place to soak up the sun.
The front door enters at the side of the building into a spacious and bright hallway. The interior decoration is elegant and neutral with character and charm that reflects the beachside location. There is a very large double reception room along the front of the property with a feature fireplace including a log burner and two large sets of sliding glass doors providing plenty of natural light, lovely views and access onto the front terrace. This flexible space is cosy and welcoming and would also be a lovely place to entertain family and friends.
Along the rear of the ground floor is a spacious and modern kitchen/diner fully equipped with integrated appliances and offering plenty of storage and worktop space. There are further glazed doors out into a small secluded courtyard space.
The downstairs layout is completed with a useful cloakroom & utility room under the stairs.
On the first floor the principal bedroom is a real joy, with a private balcony offering harbour views and an open ensuite featuring a decadent roll top bath.
There are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom, all bright, modern and beautifully presented. Ideal for a family or for inviting your guests to stay.
This house would make a wonderful lock-up-and-leave second home for a family looking to spend more quality time together enjoying holidays by the sea, it would equally be ideal as a holiday letting investment or as a main residence for those looking to immerse themselves in the coastal lifestyle.
From making sandcastles on the beach with children, to windsurfing or kitesurfing lessons in the harbour, there is so much to do for all ages and interests. And with the convenience of a private garage and offroad parking for three cars all you need to do is move in and try it out!
