With the first signs of Spring starting to show we are reminded again why the coastal and countryside locations of Dorset and Hampshire are ever popular with people seeking a home in this special part of the country.
Every one of the Tailor Made team is so passionate about the beautiful places we live and work, that we take every opportunity to explore and enjoy this incredible area, whether it’s taking in the stunning views and fresh air, or it’s walking the dog, windsurfing, paddleboarding, cycling, running, playing golf, or simply relaxing, sipping a coffee or cocktail overlooking the sea.
More than ever, we are reminded it’s part of our role to sell the local lifestyle rather than simply a property. Buyers come to the area with a dream, and it is up to us to understand that vision and make it a reality! If you love to sea dip, an apartment on the beach could make that a daily pleasure, whilst the Sandbanks Peninsula might be perfect for those wanting access to local restaurants and the marinas at the local yacht clubs. Or perhaps a quiet home tucked away on Evening Hill could give you the harbour views you’ve longed for. Maybe you want to raise your family in a character home in Talbot Woods or Wimborne? Or possibly a rural cottage on The Isle of Purbeck is the idyllic setting you are craving for family weekends out of the city. With this variety of homes on offer, we know that presenting a fully rounded lifestyle opportunity is a vital part of our property marketing. That’s why we invest in the best quality video and photography, and ensure there is a considered, bespoke, and targeted strategy for each and every property we list. For more information about how we showcase our listings, and insight from our Head of Creative Content Mica, head over to the article on page 62.
If you are considering buying or selling locally, we’d love to help! Why not pop into our Sandbanks office or call the team on 01202 706006 – we look forward to hearing from you.

are delighted to be able to share this less well known part of Dorset.
The South Coast - water’s edge cuisine is all about sustainable, locally sourced
For those of you who don’t know about us, we are an independent, family-owned business selling a range of properties from luxury apartments through to exclusive multimillion pound homes.
At Tailor Made, we pride ourselves on having assembled a team of experienced professionals, who are not only experts in their areas, but are also deeply passionate about helping their clients find their perfect home.
Having had an office in Sandbanks for over 25 years, we bring a wealth of local knowledge to every transaction, not only in Sandbanks but also across the wider conurbations of Poole and Bournemouth
and further afield into Dorset and Hampshire.
Our team are more than just a group of property consultants – we’re your partners in the journey towards finding your dream home by the sea. Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply seeking advice, we’re always here to lend a helping hand, or a listening ear. Our commitment to excellence and personalised service ensures that your experience with us is nothing short of exceptional.
So, whether you’re new to the area, a seasoned investor or a long-term local resident, you can trust in the expertise and dedication of the Tailor Made team.
Tailor Made have been selling property in Sandbanks and the surrounding areas for over 25 years, and as such have forged strong relationships with our buyers and sellers; often helping clients several times on their property journey as their needs and wants change over time, with a significant proportion of these sales conducted ‘off-market’. This is in part due to our extensive local knowledge and strong portfolio of active buyers, meaning we are ideally placed to match our clients with their perfect property without ever having to openly advertise.
For sellers, our ‘Whisper listing’ service can be an attractive choice. Perhaps you’re not in a hurry to sell, or you would only want to sell if a strong price relative to the market can be achieved. Or maybe you are just looking to maintain privacy and discretion whilst selling your home. We will pre-qualify buyers before they view your property and only arrange a showing if they meet any given requirements. This exclusive way of finding a buyer can be remarkably effective when dealing with unique properties that are only rarely available. It might
be that we have multiple buyers waiting and it isn’t unusual to end up with competing bids for a particularly exclusive off-market opportunity.
For buyers, accessing off market listings can be revolutionary – especially if you have been looking for a while in the hope the perfect property would become available. If you are looking for a special home in the area, please do get in touch with our team - we would be delighted to spend time with you, helping to understand exactly what you are looking for, not only in terms of the kind of property you are interested in, but also the lifestyle you are hoping to enjoy. By collecting this information, we are in a position to notify you when the ideal opportunity presents itself, or alternatively, approach prospective vendors to establish whether we can locate you your perfect home ‘off-market’.
To find out more about how to sell your property discreetly, or discover beautiful off-market listings you won’t find on Rightmove, call 01202 706006 or pop in and visit the team at our Sandbanks office.

Stunning traditional home offering an unparalleled blend of elegance and natural beauty
Nestled on the southern coast of England, Sandbanks peninsula in Dorset is often dubbed one of the most desirable places to live in the UK. With stunning views of (the) Poole Harbour and access to miles of golden sandy beaches, it’s a location where luxury and natural beauty collide. If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a home in this exclusive area, you’ll know that plots are limited, and prices are at a premium. However, don’t let this discourage you! The opportunity to create your dream home in this spectacular setting might still be within reach, especially if you’re open to the idea of a renovation project.
Renovating a home can be an exciting and rewarding journey, and while the idea of taking on a renovation may seem daunting to some, this process allows for complete customisation of your space - designing every aspect of your home to match your personality and lifestyle. Moreover, the peninsula’s older homes often offer the kind of character and charm that new builds may lack. With the right vision and the help of trusted, skilled professionals, a renovation project can transform a dated property into an architectural joy, and the perfect home or holiday retreat for all the family. The scarcity of plots available for redevelopment in Sandbanks and the local area, only adds to the allure of these opportunities, with many buyers choosing to take on the challenge of renovating existing homes instead. While the idea of creating your dream home in such a coveted location may seem intimidating, the rewards of transforming a property into something uniquely yours are well worth the effort. With careful planning, a strong vision, and a willingness to embrace the process, your dream home on Sandbanks can become a reality—one that will be cherished for years to come.
At Tailor Made we have contacts for trusted, local builders and trades, so do get in touch to discuss your plans, and let us help connect you with the right people to help turn those renovation dreams into reality.
We have further renovation/project homes on the peninsula coming soon, so do register with us to hear about these amazing opportunities first!

Property marketing has come a long way over the years, and with a premium property portfolio we know it’s essential to present every house and apartment we offer at its very best! Our in-house Head of Creative Content, Mica Bohannon, is dedicated to finding the angles that set every home apart and really represent on screen the type of lifestyle opportunity owning each property could represent. With the target audience for each individual property in mind, we create a suite of bespoke marketing to launch each home to ensure we maximise interest, viewings and ultimately achieve a successful sale.
Our property videos are available to view on our newly launched YouTube channel (link below) and there you’ll find a fusion of techniques seamlessly crafted to ensure potential buyers get a real sense of what is on offer…
Drone video – taking to the skies to gather drone footage is vital for coastal property in order to clearly illustrate the proximity of beach or harbour waters for those who are not familiar with the local area. And for countryside homes, the surrounding landscapes form a vital part of a buyer’s decision about whether a home suits their needs.
Agent introduction – the Tailor Made sales team are experts in their fields and feature in their videos to better explain some of the benefits you perhaps wouldn’t otherwise see; how close is the beach or local shops? What schools are in catchment? Which way does the garden face? What are the USPs that make this property stand out?
Local area footage – Many of our buyers are relocating to the area or investing in a second home, and for those people the local lifestyle on offer is just as important as the property itself, and by including video that depicts local activities, popular restaurants and beauty spots– we really are selling ‘the dream’!
“Our videography and photography is bespoke to each home. When you’re dealing with premium listings in one of the most prestigious areas of the country you must go beyond the norm, and really sell the lifestyle that people are visualising for themselves as their dream life. I put a lot of love and care into every home I create content for, and I feel that what we produce here at Tailor Made is a true reflection of just how passionate we are about marketing your home” Mica Bohannon, Tailor Made Head of Creative Content.

Talbot Woods is a hugely popular enclave of Dorset, not least due to the proximity to Bournemouth’s white sandy beaches, easy access to the main routes to London and beyond, excellent schooling, and wonderful leisure facilities.
Talbot Woods centres around Meyrick Park, a beautiful and historic area of 120 acres that dates back to the Doomsday Book!
Both ‘The Club at Meyrick Park’ and ‘The West Hants Club’ provide indoor and outdoor tennis courts, swimming pools, gyms and also act as social hubs for the local community.
The majority of the properties in Talbot Woods are traditional, characterful 1920s and 1930s homes built along wide, tree-lined avenues with a variety of other properties surrounding the area such as townhouses and executive apartments, so there really is something for everybody in this desirable enclave of Bournemouth.
Talbot Woods is also home to the highly regarded ‘Talbot Heath School’ with ‘Park School’ located in nearby Queens Park, which is also where both the girls’ and boys’ grammar schools are located.
Bournemouth Railway Station, which offers a direct line to London Waterloo in under 2 hours, is within 2.5 miles, and the local buses to get there run frequently. It’s also worth mentioning, Bournemouth International Airport is under 7 miles away, which means for those with holiday homes in European destinations such as France, Spain and Portugal, the journey is made with ease and certainly takes the stress out of the commute to the London airports!
Our Bournemouth Associate, Natasha, grew up on East Avenue, so has a personal affinity to, and passion for, this sought after residential location. Natasha has sold many properties in the area during her 20+ year career, so you are in safe hands when it comes to entrusting her to sell your Talbot Woods home, or to find your next dream home there.
