About this home

This top-floor Sandbanks apartment features a south-west facing terrace, two double bedrooms, and a private garage. Uniquely permitting holiday lets and pets, it’s a premier investment or coastal retreat c.450m from the beach.

Experience Sandbanks Peninsula’s coastal living with this beautifully presented top-floor apartment located in the heart of the world-renowned Sandbanks, synonymous for its golden sandy beaches and natural harbour for water sports. Situated within the Fairwinds development, this property offers a rare combination of serene residential comfort and exceptional investment versatility.

The apartment is defined by its bright, airy interiors and a thoughtful layout that maximises natural light. The spacious living and dining area serves as the heart of the home, featuring floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open directly onto a private, south-west facing sun terrace. Overlooking manicured communal gardens and framed by the area’s iconic pine trees, it is the perfect setting for alfresco morning coffee or evening sundowners.

The separate, modern kitchen is fully equipped with appliances and sleek cabinetry, offering a functional yet stylish space for culinary enthusiasts. Both bedrooms are generous doubles, finished in a neutral, contemporary palette, while the primary bathroom features a luxurious walk-in rainfall shower and modern tiling.

What truly sets this property apart in the Sandbanks market are its unique permissions: Fairwinds allows for both holiday lets and pets (on license), making it an ideal "lock-up-and-leave" second home coastal retreat or a great short-term rental investment.

Practicality is equally well-catered for, with the rare addition of a privately owned garage, providing secure storage for vehicles or water sports equipment, complemented by visitor parking.
