Warwick View, Belle Vue Road, Lower Parkstone, Poole

OVER 1,600 SQ FT SHARE OF FREEHOLD PENTHOUSE APARTMENT IN WALKING DISTANCE TO ASHLEY CROSS. THREE SUBSTANTIAL DOUBLE BEDROOMS, A SEPARATE DINING ROOM AND TWO SOUTH WEST FACING BALCONIES WITH SEA VIEWS. TWO GARAGES.

This penthouse occupies the entire top floor of this small block of apartments and is over 1,600 sq ft. Being a small block, the owners have a say in the management of the block.

The owner has lived here for nine years and is moving out of the area to be near family. He has already identified his forward purchase.

The apartment is large and represents strong value for money for its size. The two balconies are a highlight, south west facing with views over Poole Harbour, the Purbeck Hills and Brownsea Island.

Each room in the apartment is substantial - three generous double bedrooms, a large kitchen with room for a breakfast table and seating, a separate dining room and a 20 ft plus wide living room. The hall splits into two, giving privacy to the bedrooms and bathrooms and there are two front doors - one for access from the stairs, the other from the lift with a private lobby.

Storage is well catered for in the apartment with a large coat and shoe cupboard, airing cupboard, fitted wardrobes in each bedroom and a loft with loft ladder and lighting.

The penthouse has two separate garages, which both have power and light.

A significant and unique space with glorious views and a perfect location walking distance to Ashley Cross.

AREA DESCRIPTION
Living here is a wonderful lifestyle choice with fun, sport and leisure at the top of the list.

Parkstone Golf Club, one of the top 100 courses in the country is on your doorstep. I guess that an interest in the water brings you to want to live here. The prestigious Royal Motor Yacht Club is on the Sandbanks peninsula, Salterns Marina is the other side of Evening Hill and the sailing centre of the area is Parkstone Yacht Club in Lilliput.

Tennis and padel is catered for closeby by the East Dorset Tennis Club at Whitecliff. The area has a large cycling community with a favourite destination being to take the Sandbanks chain ferry to explore the Purbeck Hills. And of course Dorset’s Jurassic Coast is a must for walkers. There are many local gyms-Everlast at the Redlands Retail Park is very popular.

The harbour itself is the second largest natural harbour in the world (after Sydney) with many marinas capable of mooring the largest of yachts. Poole itself is the home of Sunseeker Marine. The natural harbour ensures safety and security for the yachts and the wonderful microclimate created by the Purbeck Hills makes for regular use of the water. And watching the kitesurfers and windsurfers in this UK hub for the sports will leave you open-mouthed. The harbour is known to be the UK’s safest venue for teaching children to windsurf and kitesurf.

If you are so inclined it is about a 20 minute walk from Warwick View to the harbour’s edge, part of 7 miles of continuous beach from Poole to Bournemouth and beyond. From there you can stroll along the beach or the promenade to the famous beaches of Sandbanks. All around you in Sandbanks, Canford Cliffs and Penn Hill are wonderful restaurants with Rick Stein’s open on the edge of Poole Harbour and the Pig on the Beach is in Studland via the chain ferry. And in Canford Cliffs there are 2 great gastro pubs: The Cliff and The Canford. You can walk to Ashley Cross and collect your bread from the award winning artisan bakers at Mark Bennett’s Patisserie. Ashley Cross is very much the local centre for eating and drinking with a variety of eateries. Try Pulcinella, Indi’s and Flamingos for food and the Dancing Moose and the Bermuda Triangle for a ‘pubby’ atmosphere. For shopping there are local mini Co-Op and Tesco mini stores with the supermarkets of Waitrose, M&S Food, Lidl and Tesco within a couple of miles.

If you have school age children, at primary level Lilliput 1st school and Baden Powell are Ofsted rated outstanding.
Despite living in one of the most stunning places in the UK, the area is a significant business hub with the headquarters of JP Morgan, Vitality, LV, Sunseeker Marine, the RNLI and Merlin Entertainments all in the conurbation.

From Warwick View you are approximately 2.5 hours from London by car. It is just over a mile to the Wessex Way with at least dual carriageway to the New Forest, Southampton and the UK motorway network. It is a short walk to Parkstone Station and by rail there are direct routes to London and Manchester. Next door to the station is The Cow pub-always good for a pint at the end of your journey. Bournemouth International Airport is one of the fastest growing in the UK and from Poole there are ferries to France and the Channel Islands.

A wonderful lifestyle location. Just ask us if you want to know where to do something.
