Setting & History

Forsyte Shades was completed in the early 1990s as a boutique development of just nine grand apartments, set in about 1½ acres of landscaped, south-facing grounds directly above the 15th fairway of Parkstone Golf Course. Designed with wide eaves and clean horizontal lines, the building maximises light and views while offering the rarity of double garages for every home.

A private pedestrian gate from the gardens gives residents direct access into neighbouring Compton Acres the renowned Edwardian gardensmaking morning strolls and coffee at the tearoom part of everyday life.
