With a convenient location moments from a small supermarket, an award-winning bakery, hairdressers and the open water of Poole Harbour, the exclusive development of Churchill Lodge presents residents with modern living and a sense of privacy, whilst offering the reassurance of support and community.

What really stands out to about this apartment is the positioning within the development. The property has a level approach at entrance level and is situated in the far corner of the development, which means there are no neighbouring properties on three sides. Not only does it have a sense of privacy, but there is also a sense of security as the apartment is located on the raised ground floor. The benefits of this are that you enjoy level access to your own front door, whilst to the rear you overlook the gardens which are at a lower level.

The accommodation itself is well thought out with a large living/dining room that has plentiful space to accommodate furniture for downsizers. The modern kitchen is sensibly located off the living/dining room and has integrated appliances and a window with leafy views.

The two bedrooms are comfortable doubles, one with built-in wardrobes, and windows overlooking the gardens. These are served by a contemporary shower room which has plenty of space to manoeuvre (originally, the bathroom had a full-size bath which was replaced in favour of a shower, but should a bath be preferred, this could be easily reinstated.

Churchill Lodge sits within manicured grounds and has generous resident and guest parking. The facilities also include a large owners' lounge with an adjoining kitchen where a range of events and activities are held and there is also a double guest room with ensuite facilities that is available to book for visiting guests or relatives.
