    The Brink boasts an exceptionally rare waterside plot spanning approximately an impressive 0.8 acres with an extensive waterfrontage stretching approximately 50 meters which is one of Sandbanks largest and widest single home plots. This makes The Brink a truly ‘Best in Class' property and an incredibly rare opportunity to purchase one of Sandbanks finest homes with breath-taking views of Poole Harbour, Brownsea island and castle, plus much more.

    The current owner have lovingly cared for, maintained and enhanced The Brink during the course of their ownership. The property is located in Old Coastguards Road which is a beautiful quiet cul-de-sac and is positioned down a long private drive way affording this property great seclusion. Due to the wonderfully unique shape of the plot, The Brink benefits from two driveways. One from the main Panorama Road and the main entrance from Old Coastguards Road.

    The whole property conveys 8,233 total square feet. Internally the main house is arranged over four floors spanning 7,211 square feet of palatial accommodation. The floor plan has been intelligently designed and flows effortlessly with the main accommodation being on the ground and first floor predominantly. The Lower Ground floor is currently a self-contained annex which can be used as separate accommodation or can seamlessly integrate with the main house. The top floor is an occasional sitting room/games room and home office. In addition, there is a beautiful 409 sq ft summer house, ideal for when entertaining and dining alfresco as it is located on the waterfront level and has its own kitchenette and unrivalled views across Poole Harbour. The property also has parking for several cars and a detached 570 sq ft double garage, an outbuilding of 43 sq ft and a lift.

This would be my dream family home, as it is a substantial home with an amazing pool and I would love to watch the boats sailing past at the end of the garden.
