Arguably one of the best plots in the United Kingdom is now available. About The Property Set in 1.43 Acres on Sandbanks Peninsula, the plot is located on the northwest point, commanding a double aspect with its unbelievable corner plot setting, capturing all day sun, with breath taking 270 degree aspect with spectacular views across Poole Harbour, and Brownsea island. The main house sits centrally on its plot, nestled away taking full advantage of its treeline setting whilst basking in its sunny aspect, it affords complete privacy from the main Panorama Road, with a sweeping drive connecting from the main gate and garaging area, leading into the main plot and opening up to the main house. To its right, carport gives parking with a drop back of a mature settlement of trees, which conceals a fabulous gardeners haven and a large summer house and paths connecting through to the front boundary. To the left of the main house, various zoned planting arrangements give the current owners privacy from the water, with elements of views pulling you through and this does give you a grandness in scale for how big the plot is, especially when down on the southerly point which opens onto a seating area which can only be described as the pinnacle of living and viewpoints. To the rear of the main home, extensive lawns sweep away from the home opening up the drop back of Brownsea Island and the most spectacular view that we believe, no other home in Sandbanks has, and arguably any waterfront plot has in the United Kingdom. Additional areas to the rear include an outdoor infinity pool, boat store and slipway access. The house has been in the same family since the late 1800’s, having survived 2 world wars, it was built originally early 1900’s and then extended in the 1950’s and again added to in the 1970’s with some internal refurbishment in parts of the home in recent years. The home has a nostalgic charm about it, and investment may be needed by the incoming buyer if they wish to modernise. Some may choose to lift the roof and extend while others might want to start a fresh and rebuild. What is very apparent, who ever lives here will be owning the ultimate plot, giving privacy, location and a home for the next generation to enjoy. Lets take a look inside Entering the main hall, stairs connect to the first floor whilst connecting through to main reception rooms. The ground floor hosts a spacious living room, dining room and kitchen, all of which embrace its waterfront location with whispering glances of the water that pull you through each area and out onto the veranda for those sunny days. Additional rooms for this floor include kitchen utility room, store room, pantry, separate store room, an office and guest W.C. To the first floor, given the 1950’s extension and works, some considerable detail and thought was put in by the family to give a fantastic principle bedroom suite hosting walk in dressing room and ensuite. A guest bedroom suite, with range of wardrobes and ensuite, with bedrooms 3 & 4, sharing the family shower room. 3 of the 4 bedrooms all have water views as the house wraps around its 270 degree aspect.

Seller Insight The property was originally called Harbour Light, due to the fact that there was footpath access through the garden for the lamplighter to light the harbour beacon – once situated on the foreshore and accessed via a small footbridge,” says the owner. “However, when it was discovered that the name of the property was duplicated elsewhere in the area, it was renamed North Haven Point after the turning point for shipping entering the harbour in transit to the quays at Poole.” “The property, which at one time also incorporated North Haven House – the house next door – has been in my family for four generations. However, back in 1946 North Haven House was sold, and Harbour Light, as it was then known, was retained. It’s unique in the fact that it sits on the largest plot on Sandbanks and boasts a 270-degree panorama of the second largest natural harbour in the world. The uninterrupted views are magnificent, and from here we also enjoy the most spectacular sunsets over the Purbeck Hills and Brownsea Island way off in the distance.” The location of the property, size and privacy of the plot with its extensive harbour frontage, are all things that set this exceptional family home apart from all the rest. It sits well back from the road, so only glimpses of the house can be seen, and the entrance driveway is mostly hidden. The garden, which extends to around one and a half acres, features lawn with wild Thrift and natural grasses stretching right the way from the house to the sea. However, there’s also a pretty woodland area and a quiet traditionally planted secret garden, which gives complete shelter from the harbour winds. “It’s very hard to pick a favourite room as they are all so lovely,” says the owner. “However, one of our favourite features has to be the views. Each of the reception rooms, the main and secondary bedroom enjoy a spectacular outlook facing south or southwest across the harbour and Purbeck Hills.” “The location is absolutely superb,” says the owner “At home we enjoy peace and privacy and those outstanding sea/harbour views. We’ve also relished the ease of access to the Purbecks and the New Forest.” “The whole property lends itself to socialising and entertaining, and therefore a great many parties and even a family wedding have been enjoyed within the house and grounds.” “What will we miss? All of it,” says the owner. “It’s very special.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
