Sandbourne Court, West Overcliff Drive, Bournemouth

Gordon Barker are delighted to offer FOR SALE this exceptional and rarely available two double bedroom ground-floor apartment, situated within the prestigious Sandbourne Court, an exclusive development for the over 55s occupying a highly sought-after position on West Overcliff Drive.

Properties within Sandbourne Court seldom become available, and it is easy to see why. Combining generous accommodation, beautifully maintained surroundings and an enviable location close to both Westbourne Village and Bournemouth's renowned coastline, this is an outstanding opportunity for those looking for a premium home by the sea.

The apartment itself offers approximately 107.9 sqm (1,161 sqft) of impressively proportioned accommodation, with the standout feature being the superb open-plan lounge and dining room measuring approximately 8.94m x 3.95m. This wonderful reception space enjoys an abundance of natural light from numerous windows and doors and provides ample room for both comfortable seating and a substantial dining area.

Multiple doors open directly from the living accommodation onto the property's private patio and beautifully maintained communal gardens, creating a particularly attractive connection between the apartment and its leafy surroundings. The gardens provide a peaceful backdrop and give the property a genuine sense of privacy that is unusual for apartment living.

Alongside the main reception area is an additional snug/home office, providing a versatile second living space ideal for reading, working from home or simply creating a quieter retreat away from the main lounge.

The separate kitchen is smartly presented with a comprehensive range of fitted units, generous work surfaces and integrated appliances, while a large window provides plenty of natural light and an attractive outlook.

Both bedrooms are excellent doubles, each measuring approximately 4.37m in length and offering useful built-in storage. The principal bedroom is particularly well proportioned and benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, while the second bedroom is conveniently served by a separate shower room. A further WC and several additional storage cupboards are positioned off the spacious central hallway.

The apartment is presented in extremely well-kept condition throughout, with generous ceiling heights, decorative coving and an abundance of natural light contributing to its elegant and comfortable feel.

Externally, Sandbourne Court is approached through attractive landscaped grounds and has an impressive traditional architectural appearance. The development feels private and established, with mature planting and carefully maintained communal areas adding considerably to its appeal.

A particularly valuable benefit is the apartment's allocated underground parking space, providing secure and convenient parking. The property is also offered with a long lease, adding further reassurance for a prospective purchaser.

A superb Westbourne & coastal location

West Overcliff Drive is one of Bournemouth's most desirable residential settings, running along the clifftop between Durley Chine and Alum Chine, with the area's wooded chines providing attractive routes towards the coastline.

The location places the apartment within easy reach of Westbourne Village, one of the area's most popular lifestyle destinations. Westbourne offers an excellent mixture of independent boutiques, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities centred around its characterful Victorian shopping arcade.

For those looking to enjoy the coast, the location is equally impressive. The beautiful sandy beaches around Alum Chine, Durley Chine and West Cliff are within easy reach, providing miles of promenade stretching towards Bournemouth in one direction and Sandbanks and Poole in the other. Westbourne itself has an attractive wooded walk through Alum Chine leading towards the beach and tropical gardens.

Transport connections are also excellent. Regular local bus services provide links towards Bournemouth, Poole and the surrounding areas, while nearby rail connections give access along the south coast and towards London. From Bournemouth Railway Station, services connect with destinations including Southampton and Winchester, with London Waterloo reachable on the fastest services in around 97 minutes.

Sandbourne Court represents a particularly rare opportunity to acquire a spacious, ground-floor home within one of the area's premium over-55 developments. With over 1,160 sqft of accommodation, two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, superb living space, private patio access, beautiful communal gardens, underground allocated parking and the beaches and Westbourne Village close at hand, early viewing is highly recommended.
