Harbour House, Doulton Gardens, Whitecliff, BH14 8RQ

SOLD By Lloyd Young Homes

What’s On Offer?
Harbour House is a well-designed modern block that will give purchasers peace of mind regarding future upkeep, in addition to handy features such as a communal bike store, allocated parking (plus visitors spaces) and a lift to all floors. This first floor apartment is in tip top condition, with low charges and parking! This beautiful apartment was successfully let out (£1,300pcm) until recently, when the owners moved back in. The owners have a clear forward plan, having found their next home- fast deal possible!
Through tasteful design and subtle improvements this apartment has been elevated to a mature, cosy space that gives a homely vibe along with peace of mind that comes with a modern building. Residents at Harbour House enjoy a quiet yet connected cul de sac location in Whitecliff, just a short stroll away from essential shops, cafes and eateries. Ashley Cross is around the corner, offering a popular array of shops, restaurants and bars.

With two double bedrooms, one boasting a large en suite shower room and a family bathroom, couples and visitors have plenty of space and won’t be on top of each other. The entrance hallway is refreshingly characterful with decorative wall panelling, tasteful art and LED downlighting; It’s plenty big enough and gives access to the bedrooms, lounge-diner, bathroom, a large storage cupboard plus the handy airing cupboard which holds the Gas Combination Boiler.

Found on the first floor (great for security!) and accessed via easy stairs plus a lift for when you’ve hit your daily steps! Downstairs, a secure door entry system allows you to buzz visitors in without leaving your home…this is an ideal ‘lock and leave’ purchase for those wanting a holiday home or for those working away regularly.

The lounge-diner is a comfortable size, with space for large furniture and feels bright thanks to South-Westerly facing French doors. Those doors open to a Juliette balcony- handy for keeping the flat cool, whilst keeping the kids and pets safe. Yes- you’re allowed pets at Harbour House (spot Blue the cat in our video tour!). The kitchen is separated from the lounge by an arch, that still allows you to socialise with guests when cooking up your signature dish. It’s a modern space, with integral appliances and an induction hob (the owners have handily left a gas point behind for those preferring a gas hob!)

 

Bedrooms.
The main bedroom comfortably takes a king bed and bedside tables, plus a large wardrobe (which can remain) AND a chest of draws. Dual aspect openable windows means this is also a bright and breezy room. A large half-tiled en suite shower room gives total privacy from guests, plus makes busy family mornings much easier! With a shower cubicle here and a bath (with shower over) in the family bathroom, you’re covered on all bases. The second bedroom is also a comfortable double with space for plenty of storage.

 

The Location.
If a connected seaside lifestyle location is what you’re after, this is the spot for you! We think this is one of the best pound for pound neighbourhoods around, being walking distance to Parkstone Yacht Club, the waterfront at Whitecliff, Ashley Cross Village and of course, Sandbanks. Love good coffee? We recommend taking a two minute walk to Coast.Surf+Moto for your daily caffeine fix, a tasty lunch or work meetings.

BCS private school is close by, and this apartment is within the catchment for Lilliput & Baden Powell public schools. A casual stroll down to Lilliput takes just fifteen minutes and you’ll be in Sandbanks within half an hour. Parkstone Golf Course, which is consistently ranked in the top 100 courses in Great Britain & Ireland, is also nearby (there’s no excuse to not improve your game when living here!)
Commuters have good access to the Bournemouth Wessex Way which gives a direct route to the M27 motorway with London just 1.5 hours away. There are also main train routes from either Poole, Parkstone or Branksome station which connect to the Weymouth-London Waterloo South West train service. The ability to live the seaside lifestyle whilst maintaining access to the office underscores the value of this amazing location.

 

Agent Note.
Buyers with larger cars won’t have to worry about parking- the allocated space is wide and on an end spot- so no one parking next to you on one side!
