Property description
A superbly presented and generously proportioned three double bedroom apartment in this ever-sought after and prestigious frontline block commanding remarkable panoramic views across Poole Bay, out to sea, and over towards Old Harry Rocks.
Location
The Sandbanks Peninsula is, as the name suggests, a peninsula jutting out across the mouth of Poole Harbour, the second largest natural harbour in the world. This remarkable spit of land is a true gem of Dorset, internationally acclaimed for its beautiful views, start of seven miles of unspoilt golden sands, and with the backdrop of Poole Harbour, a drowned valley formed at the end of the last ice age.
It is positioned on the Jurassic coast, offering a base from which to explore some of the most varied and impressive coastline in the UK on foot or by bike, and is also perfectly situated to take advantage of some of the most legendary sailing waters and water sports on offer.
Shoreacres is a grand, meticulously maintained block occupying what must be one of the very best positions on Sandbanks, with its rolling lawns and exclusive beach huts opening directly onto golden sands, right down to the water's edge.
The peninsula is also well-served by local amenities, including two small but friendly and well-stocked local stores, several boating and yacht clubs (including the prestigious Royal Motor Yacht Club and the Sandbanks Yacht Co.), offering access to the water but also somewhere to sit and enjoy the tranquillity of the area. For lovers of gastronomy, Rick Stein comes well recommended, offering superbly fresh seafood only a short walk from Shoreacres itself.
Alternatively, with such tremendous views on offer, a quiet cocktail on your very own balcony must surely be a terrific way to end the day.
