Situation Sandbanks is highly regarded as one of the most exclusive addresses for coastal property in the UK. A stunning stretch of blue flag beach, abundance of water sports and wealth of superb restaurants make this small sandy Dorset peninsula a much revered retreat for sailing enthusiasts and celebrities alike. Starboard Lights occupies arguably one of the most sought after spots along the aptly named, Panorama Road, which follows the more sheltered westerly side of Sandbanks. The house has an unrivalled panoramic view of the Purbecks in the distance to Green, Furzey and Brownsea islands, up to Poole Quay and around the inside of the harbour to Sandbanks. The west facing position of the house allows for year round enjoyment of spectacular 'Turner-esque' sunsets. Canford Cliffs village is host to a small parade of useful shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. Of particular note are the Café Shore restaurant on Sandbanks and the acclaimed Haven Hotel. The

Royal Motor Yacht Club, located further along Panorama Road from Starboard Lights, has its own haven and private moorings as well as accommodation and a restaurant. A number of other well known yacht clubs can be found in Poole Harbour. There are many public and private golf courses in the vicinity, including the prestigious Parkstone Golf Course and Meyrick Park. There are a number of excellent tennis clubs including the East Dorset Tennis and Croquet Club and the West Hants Club in Bournemouth. Poole Harbour is the second largest natural harbour in the world and provides private and commercial ferry services to France and the Channel Islands. There are car ferries from Sandbanks to the popular ‘blue flag’ beaches of Studland, Swanage and the Isle of Purbeck. South Dorset has a number of popular private, primary and secondary schools. These include, Canford School, Dumpton, Yarrells, Castle Court, Uplands, Talbot Heath and the Bournemouth and Poole Grammar Schools.


Description Starboard Lights is a striking house, which was built by the current owners in 1995. The westerly orientation of the building and unique multifaceted design, a partially grey brick, partially rendered structure, which features a principally glass frontage and two sizeable balconies, has been carefully considered to take advantage of the property’s enviable views. Throughout the property the windows are double glazed with toughened glass. The balconies are made of African hard wood, which is amongst the most durable of woods and provides a superb area for outdoor entertaining during the warmer months. The layout of the house has been organised around a generous entrance hall, housing an impressive pine staircase. The hall is attractively finished with complimentary pine skirting boards, door frames and rope style cornicing and provides access to all of the reception rooms. Glazed pine doors lead through to the drawing room, which is wonderfully light on account of the large bay window with a far reaching aspect across the harbour to Brownsea Island. This room has access onto the balcony at the back of the house and leads through internally to the dining area, which has floor to ceiling glass doors providing a second access to the balcony. The kitchen/breakfast room can be accessed via either the dining area or entrance hall. The kitchen has a range of cabinets and fitted pine units with tiled surfaces. At the back of the room, a door leads through to the utility room, which has a large area for hanging coats, a separate access to the garden, laundry area and internal access to

the garage. Adjacent to the kitchen is a storage room. Also accessed from the entrance hall is a study, cloakroom and the staircase that leads down to the lower ground floor studio. The staircase to the lower ground floor has been specially designed in width and fitted with an electric point at the base to cater for a potential stair lift. A hallway housing a substantial storage cupboard leads through to the reception/studio/living room, which has a small kitchen area and an ensuite bathroom with a bath, shower cubicle and loo. This room has excellent storage in the form of two fitted cupboards. Glass double doors lead out onto the patio. On the first floor there is a spacious landing with attractive rope style cornice, spotlights, a storage cupboard, airing cupboard housing the boiler, a window with pretty aspect out towards the drive and access to the bedrooms and bathroom. The master bedroom gives an impressive feeling of space due to its large bay window and vaulted ceiling. Double glass doors lead onto an external balcony, which is also shared by two further double bedrooms. Twin fitted wardrobes with hanging and shelving space flank the ‘mock wardrobe’ doors, which lead through to an ensuite housing a bath, separate shower cubicle, three further cupboards and cloakroom. The second and third guest bedrooms share a bathroom and separate cloakroom on the opposite side of the landing. Both bedrooms have fitted storage space and access to the shared external balcony. Bedroom 2 has access to the insulated loft.
