Chaddesley Glen, Sandbanks, Poole, Dorset, BH13

A lovely opportunity, this detached house offers the rare combination of a quiet and sought after road, beach proximity, gorgeous harbour views and a secluded and beautiful garden plot. The perfect home for those who don't want to compromise!

The property is approached by a large driveway screened from the road by trees and mature planting. There is plenty of off-road parking space and a generous integral garage offering space for storage and vehicles.

The front door opens into an entrance hall with cloakroom access and stairs up to the living floor and down to garden level. The mid floor of the property is beautifully proportioned in an open plan kitchen/living/dining space that enjoys beautiful views over the harbour. There is a full width balcony that acts as an extension of the living space making a lovely connection to outside and an exceptional versatile room that's perfect for entertaining, relaxing and family life.

The kitchen is modern and stylish, bespoke units and integral branded appliances make good use of the space and there is a sociable breakfast bar area for informal dining.

The views on this level are magical with the sylvan rear garden framing the harbour beyond and screening almost all other buildings from view to give a tranquil and impressive vista.

Upstairs there is a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and ensuite shower room, a further double bedroom, family bathroom and a home office space. The bedrooms and office all enjoy beautiful harbour views and an inspiring coastal outlook.

The ground floor hosts a further generous ensuite double bedroom with access out into the rear garden. The garden is a wonderful and unexpected treat with landscaped mature planting edging the plot to create a very secluded and private space. There are patios and lawns and, towards the end of the plot, a charming kitchen garden with raised beds, raspberry cages and a storage shed is screened from the main house by attractive hedging. There is also a lovely outdoor shower room, ideal for children or pets fresh from fun at the beach.

This special home needs to be viewed to appreciate the unique opportunity here; with the beach just 350m walk from your door, a garden that would equally grace a country cottage, and impressive harbour views, it offers a wonderful coastal lifestyle whether as a main home or seaside escape.

The property is situated in the exclusive and affluent Canford Cliffs area where some of the area’s finest properties can be found. The setting, had the property been 300 metres south, would be classed as Sandbanks, meaning all the benefits of this world famous resort are close at hand.

Local restaurants of note include The Cliff and The Canford for easy drop ins, the fabulous Tandy on Sandbanks, Lazy Jacks and of course the renowned Rick Steins Sandbanks establishment. Rockwater at Branksome Chine and shortly opening on Sandbanks Beach are further welcome additions to the hospitality scene.

The area is well-known for award winning golden sandy beaches. With lifeguard presence in peak season the waters are safe and family friendly with a wealth of water sports on offer from surfing and paddle boarding to sea swimming and a beachfront sauna.

Canford Cliffs is regarded as having outstanding natural beauty and for having its own micro-climate with milder winters and more sunshine hours than most other parts of the country. The wellness scene in Canford Cliffs & Sandbanks is a key feature which includes yoga and Pilates studios, boutique health-food cafes, sea swimming clubs and much more.

Championship golf is available at Parkstone Golf Course. The tennis community is strong locally at The East Dorset Tennis & Croquet Club and The West Hants Tennis Club (which is also an amazing all round leisure club including gym, swimming pool, squash courts and more).

Local mainline stations connect to London Waterloo in 2 hours and the M27 and M3 provide links to major towns and cities, such as Southampton, Winchester, and London.
