Flat 1, 3, Powell Road, Poole, BH14 8SG

Space, character and a lifestyle location combine in this superb apartment, set within an attractive character building in one of Lower Parkstone's most sought-after pockets.

The location is a major part of the appeal.

With Poole Harbour and Whitecliff close by and the shops, cafés, bars and restaurants of Ashley Cross within easy reach, this is an excellent base for anyone looking to make the most of the area's outdoor and coastal lifestyle.

The apartment itself offers well-proportioned accommodation with a particularly impressive living/dining room.

Large windows provide plenty of natural light, while high ceilings and character features give the space a sense of scale and individuality rarely found at this price point.

The accommodation also includes a fitted kitchen, double bedroom, living room, additional reception room and bathroom, with the second reception room offering useful flexibility as a guest room, home office or additional living space.

What really sets the property apart, however, is everything that comes with it outside the apartment.

The building sits within extensive established communal grounds, providing an unusually attractive setting and valuable outside space.

There is also a significant amount of secure communal storage, making the property particularly well suited to buyers with bikes, paddleboards, kayaks, watersports equipment, barbecues and other outdoor gear - items that can be difficult to accommodate in conventional apartment living.

For runners, cyclists, paddleboarders or simply anyone who wants to spend more time outdoors, the combination of storage, grounds and proximity to the water makes this a particularly compelling proposition.

Offered at £270,000, this is much more than simply a two bedroom apartment: It's an opportunity to buy into the Lower Parkstone lifestyle, with the practical space to enjoy it.
