Coming to market for the first time in almost 30 years this is an amazing opportunity to refurb, rebuild or redevelop a landmark Sandbanks site (STPP).
An exciting opportunity to buy one of the most iconic plots on Sandbanks. Positioned at the very top of Evening Hill this substantial home is almost a gatehouse to Sandbanks Peninsula. In an elevated position it is set back from the road, private and protected behind a gated driveway.
The views are phenomenal from the ground and first floors, a unique site that is perfect for refurbishment or redevelopment.
The house is approached by a paved driveway and there is a detached double garage and plenty of parking and turning space.
The property is traditional in style with large rooms, high ceilings and picture windows to appreciate the views. The front door brings you through to an impressive dining hall with sweeping staircase up to the second floor. The kitchen opens into a large conservatory extension enjoying beautiful views across the water.
A formal dining room with feature fireplace also looks out over the harbour and a separate reception to the side of the home makes an ideal home office or snug. A large and useful utility room connecting to the rear garden completes the ground floor.
Upstairs was originally four bedrooms but is now two large ensuite bedrooms and also a palatial principal suite with balcony overlooking the harbour.
Outside the rear garden is tiered with walkways and patio viewpoints placed to best appreciate the outlook.
There is a real opportunity here to create a fantastic modern family home or even for development potential STPP.
