Salterns Way, Lilliput, Poole, Dorset, BH14

Occupying an enviable position within Salterns Way, this three-bedroom apartment presents an exceptional opportunity to create a truly outstanding waterside home in one of Lilliput's most sought-after locations. Offering approximately 1,650 sq. ft. of accommodation, the property enjoys a beautiful coastal setting where ever-changing views across the water provide a spectacular backdrop to everyday life. Occupying arguably one of the finest positions within the development, the apartment enjoys a coveted south-facing aspect with panoramic east-to-west views, allowing you to enjoy both sunrise and sunset.

The well-proportioned open-plan living and dining room is flooded with natural light, with expansive glazing framing breathtaking views across the whole of Poole Harbour, stretching from Sandbanks to the east, across Brownsea Island and the marina below, to Poole Quay in the west, with the Purbeck Hills providing a stunning backdrop beyond. Opening onto a balcony, it is an idyllic spot for morning coffee or evening drinks, where you can relax while watching boats glide effortlessly through the marina beneath.

The kitchen and en suite offers scope for modernisation, allowing a new owner to create a contemporary space tailored to their own style and requirements. The kitchen also enjoys delightful views across the lagoon, a perspective shared by the second bedroom, adding yet another dimension to this exceptional waterside setting.

All three bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, with the impressive principal suite enjoying its own private balcony together with an en-suite bathroom featuring both a bath and separate shower. Two further double bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom, providing comfortable accommodation for family and guests alike.

While the apartment would now benefit from updating throughout, it represents an increasingly rare chance to transform an already exceptional property into a bespoke luxury residence, perfectly suited to its prestigious waterfront setting.

The lifestyle on offer is equally compelling. Salterns Marina is within approximately 50 metres, and the boatyard is within circa 200 metres, making this an ideal base for boating enthusiasts, while the popular waterfront restaurant, The Deck, is also close by (approximately 80 metres). Residents enjoy the benefit of secure gated access, an integral allocated parking space, a useful private garage storage room and access to beautifully maintained communal grounds. A particular highlight is the private gated beach, providing the perfect place to walk the dog, launch or store a small sailboat, or simply sit with your toes in the water as the sun sets across the harbour. The boutique shops, cafés and everyday amenities of Lilliput are all within approximately 400 metres, completing an outstanding opportunity to embrace one of Dorset's most desirable coastal lifestyles.
