Harbour Front House is a beautifully presented waterfront property within the prime Dorset location of Lilliput, offering privacy, security and an exceptional lifestyle.

The magnificent, five-bedroom home has been redesigned in recent years to an extremely high quality to maximise the exceptional waterfront position the property commands. The property’s south westerly aspect allows for sensational views across Parkstone marina to Brownsea Island, the Sandbanks peninsula and the entrance to Poole Harbour.

The home is currently being marketed by Savills Canford Cliffs, at a guide of £5.5 million. Keith Fensom, head of office at Savills Canford Cliffs, believes this Harbour Front House offers a tremendous opportunity to purchase an exceptional home in an area of Dorset which is perennially in demand with home buyers seeking the best that Dorset coastal living has to offer.

Behind the solid entrance gates, Harbour Front House is set at the end of a sweeping block paviour driveway. This attractive family and entertaining property consisting of approximately 4,061 square feet offers substantial and highly appointed accommodation for today’s much-desired luxury lifestyle.

Upon entering the property into the impressive entrance hall, visitors are immediately greeted with a grand sweeping double staircase and inspiring views through the tiled hallway across the sitting room to Poole Harbour. Leading from the hallway are the principal reception rooms, including the elegant living room with engineered wood flooring, a bespoke walnut entertainment wall unit and bar area, overlooking the garden with views stretching across the water.

A door from the living area leads to the front of the property, where there is a curved office and a separate cloakroom. The property benefits from hardwood framed double glazed windows, decorative cornicing and air conditioning to the principal rooms.

The expansive kitchen / breakfast room features beautifully appointed handmade kitchen units, integral Gaggenau appliances, granite work tops and a feature central island with entertaining and practicality in mind. It is open plan with a semi-circular breakfast area, which gives access out to the patio and garden. To the opposite side of the kitchen is a door to the fitted utility room and along to the curved dining room with feature oval dropped ceiling.

The stairway leads up to a galleried landing on the first floor, which houses the impressive master bedroom suite with walk-in dressing room and fully tiled en-suite with Jacuzzi bath and sizeable mosaic shower. Double doors from both the bedroom and dressing room open out onto the balcony, which enjoys views of the garden, Poole Harbour and beyond. Three further luxuriously appointed bedroom suites complete the accommodation on this floor.

On the top floor is a dual aspect guest suite comprising bedroom with seating area, en suite shower room, walk-in wardrobe and sun balcony to the front and rear, providing stunning panoramic harbour views.

A particular feature of the property is the beautifully landscaped south west facing gardens with sun decked terrace areas and a large lawn. It’s a beautiful location to relax and enjoy the view, or to entertain guests; and with a jetty and slipway at the water’s edge from where you can delight your guests with boat trips across the harbour, the true meaning of coastal living becomes a reality. Even if a seafaring lifestyle isn’t quite for you, the ever-changing, sensational vistas across the harbour are sure to delight your guests.

The property is set well back from the road, benefitting from a long driveway with an array of mature shrubs on either side which provides ample parking for several cars. The drive leads up to a double garage with a studio apartment above – perfect for overnighting guests or as an independent living area for staff, such as an au pair.

Harbour Front House is situated in Lilliput, is a prime coastal residential suburb located midway between the coastal towns of Poole and Bournemouth. The area is well known for its natural beauty and micro climate with a reputation for having mild winters and more sunshine than most other parts of the UK. Poole Harbour is the second largest natural harbour in the world, while Sandbanks has award-winning Blue Flag beaches approximately two miles away, and Bournemouth has just over 11 kilometres of golden beaches.

If being so close to the water inspires the sailor in you, then you’re in luck, for the renowned Parkstone Yacht Club with its newly built contemporary club house is only 50 metres away. For other amenities, a variety of shops at Lilliput village are located approximately 1 mile away.

The towns of Poole and Bournemouth are conveniently located nearby, offering an abundance of shops, restaurants, cafes and bars together with excellent facilities for bathing, windsurfing, jet skiing, golfing and access to the flagship dealership for Sunseeker luxury yachts. You can also catch the daily ferry to Brownsea Island and Swanage which is a gateway town for exploring the Jurassic Coast, a 155 kilometre World Heritage Site.
