Much of Branksome Park falls within conservation areas as well as low density housing areas. Undoubtedly one of the most exclusive areas of Poole, it is known for its luxury houses set in spacious grounds and for its exclusive apartment blocks which are largely concentrated in specific areas east and west of The Avenue.

Sitting approximately midway between the town centres of Poole and Bournemouth, it is ideally located to take full advantage of the area’s renowned shopping and leisure facilities, such as the blue flag beaches at Branksome Chine and the world-famous Sandbanks Peninsula. The villages of Westbourne and Canford Cliffs are located nearby with their array of eclectic shops, bars, bistros and restaurants.

Transport communications are excellent as the mainline railway station at Bournemouth and even closer at Branksome, provide services to London Waterloo. The start of the A338 is located approximately one mile away and offers access to the M27giving direct access to London, the Home Counties and beyond. Bournemouth and Southampton International Airports are also within easy reach and there is a ferry terminal at Poole Harbour with services to the Channel Islands and mainland Europe.
