Introduction:
Just take a few short moments to imagine waking up to this stunning view each morning. It would provide every good reason to get out bed, grab a coffee and head to the balcony. This fine home is one of just three one-bed apartments occupying this prime south-facing aspect and enjoys the most breathtaking panoramic views over Poole Harbour and beyond. It is also the highest positioned of the three making the vista even more spectacular. Needless to say we anticipate much interest. In summary, the accommodation offers a living room with French door to large balcony, quality kitchen with a host of appliances, excellent double bedroom and sensible wetroom with level access shower.
Horizons is a 'flagship' development built by multi-award winning McCarthy Stone and completed in 2017. Designed for Retirement Living plus, it has the latest in stylish living for the over 70's and includes a restaurant serving very affordable 3 course lunch time meals daily, communal lounge, and communal areas (enjoying the best of the breathtaking views), landscaped gardens and a guest suite available for family and friends who wish to stay (additional charges apply). For peace of mind, there is an Estate Manager and staff on site and 24-hour emergency call system provided via a personal pendant alarm and with call points in the hallway and bathroom.
Poole is of course well know for its natural harbour and exquisite beaches and the development offers fantastic views of this stunning natural landscape from several communal vantage points. It is also extremely conveniently placed with Poole Town centre around half a mile distance and the bustling Poole Quay just a fraction over a mile away. A reliable bus service connects Poole with surrounding areas.
