With a prime position on Poole's Quayside, this home is blessed with terrific views of the harbour and the sea beyond. Towards the back of the property, however, it's a different story completely — here, guests can escape the hustle and bustle in the walled patio area complete with alfresco seating and a barbecue.

The exterior of the home is rather traditional, but the design inside is as contemporary as it comes. Stark white walls and wooden flooring are a classic combination and play host to a collection of smart furnishings and a baby-blue kitchen. Upstairs, the minimalist bedrooms and bathrooms live up to the high standard set by the storey below.

Step out the front door and you're in the middle of Poole, which has plenty of independent shops and restaurants to explore, as well as the seafront Baiter Park. A little further afield, Canford Cliffs Beach is only a quarter of an hour's drive away, while Brownsea Island takes twenty minutes to reach by ferry.


Home truths:
*The bedrooms and bathrooms are on the first and second floor, so the home might not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility
*There’s an allocated parking space for up to one car to the rear of the house
*One of the bedrooms can be arranged as twin singles if preferred
