We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a rarely available three-bedroom penthouse apartment within one of Poole Harbour’s most iconic modern buildings.
Offering direct lift access straight into the apartment, expansive sun terraces, and sweeping tree-top views, this is a home that delivers refined coastal living at its very best.
The penthouse forms part of the Brooklyn building, an exclusive landmark by Towncourt Homes, widely regarded as one of the area’s most prestigious modern apartment developments.
Influenced by Art Deco styling, the building makes an immediate impression; its clean lines, circular bays, and simplified architectural form provide a striking contemporary elegance that has stood the test of time.
The curved bays channel natural light deep into the principal rooms, ensuring the accommodation feels bright, airy, and expansive throughout.
The layout has been thoughtfully arranged for both everyday living and entertaining.
The dual-aspect open-plan living area enjoys harbour glimpses, excellent proportions, and defined dining and sitting zones.
Double doors lead through to a separate study, offering flexibility for remote working or quiet reading.
The kitchen/breakfast room is well-sized and features a breakfast bar and comfortable dining nook; it opens directly onto the balcony and is linked to the dining room via a discreet pocket door, allowing the living spaces to flow seamlessly.
This arrangement makes the apartment particularly well-suited to hosting, with the principal rooms connecting effortlessly and supported by a practical utility room.
All three double bedrooms enjoy private en-suite bath or shower rooms, ensuring exceptional comfort for both owners and guests.
Further features speak to the level of care and investment seen throughout the apartment, including a discreet modern air-filtration system, gas-fired underfloor heating, powder-coated aluminium windows, American oak flooring, walnut joinery, bespoke Italian designer wardrobes, and a sleek rational kitchen with stone worktops and premium appliances including Gaggenau (among others).
Ceiling-mounted speakers (rather than wall-mounted) in the principal rooms provide a refined audio solution consistent with modern design principles.
Externally, the penthouse benefits from two privately demised underground parking spaces, a lockable store, and convenient communal cycle storage.
Offered with no forward chain, and with the potential to acquire select furnishings by separate negotiation, the property presents an attractive turnkey opportunity for those seeking an immediate harbour base or second home.
Positioned on Bingham Avenue, the property is perfectly placed for access to Poole Harbour, with a convenient footpath leading onto Shore Road, placing the water’s edge within a short stroll.
Harbourside walks, paddleboarding, and sailing are all immediately accessible, alongside nearby beaches and scenic coastline.
Canford Cliffs and Ashley Cross offer a selection of boutique shops, cafés, and restaurants.
For travel and connectivity, Branksome railway station is within easy reach and provides direct services to London Waterloo with journey times from approximately two hours, making the apartment well suited to both commuters and second-home owners seeking a coastal retreat with metropolitan access.
