This frontline penthouse on Bournemouth’s West Cliff delivers dramatic south-west sea views and nearly 400 sq ft of private roof terrace. Set within a small, secure boutique block, the apartment is newly created and finished to a high specification, offering open-plan living, two double bedrooms and dedicated parking behind electric gates.
Indoor and outdoor spaces are designed for coastal living: floor-to-ceiling windows frame Poole Bay vistas, while the expansive glazed roof terrace provides panoramic outlooks for entertaining or quiet relaxation. Practical features include lift access, two allocated parking spaces, a sizeable utility/plant cupboard and a generous dressing area off the principal suite.
Ownership benefits and constraints are straightforward. The property is chain-free, sold as a share of freehold with a long lease (244 years remaining). Expect an average service charge around £2,500 and an expensive council tax band. Holiday lets are not permitted; pets are allowed subject to licence.
Location is a major selling point — 350 metres from award-winning beaches and adjacent to Westcliff Gardens — but the immediate neighbourhood has very high recorded crime and local area indicators showing deprivation and a cosmopolitan, student-influenced mix. Buyers valuing seafront position, privacy and turnkey condition will find strong appeal; those seeking low running costs or short-term holiday income should note the management rules and service charges.
