About
With a convenient location moments from a small supermarket, an award-winning bakery, hairdressers and the open water of Poole Harbour, the exclusive development of Churchill Lodge presents residents with modern living and a sense of privacy, whilst offering the reassurance of support and community.
What really stands out to about this apartment is the positioning within the development.
The property has a level approach at entrance level and is situated in the far corner of the development, which means there are no neighbouring properties on three sides.
Not only does it have a sense of privacy, but there is also a sense of security as the apartment is located on the raised ground floor.

The accommodation itself is well thought out with a large living/dining room that has plentiful space to accommodate furniture for downsizers.
The modern kitchen is sensibly located off the living/dining room and has integrated appliances and a window with leafy views.
The two bedrooms are comfortable doubles, one with built-in wardrobes, and windows overlooking the gardens.
These are served by a contemporary shower room which has plenty of space to manoeuvre (originally, the bathroom had a full-size bath which was replaced in favour of a shower, but should a bath be preferred, this could be easily reinstated.
Churchill Lodge sits within manicured grounds and has generous resident and guest parking.
The facilities also include a large owners' lounge with an adjoining kitchen where a range of events and activities are held and there is also a double guest room with ensuite facilities that is available to book for visiting guests or relatives.
