5 bed detached house for sale

Sandy Lane, Poole BH16

A beautifully presented five bedroom, three bathroom detached home, perfectly positioned in a peaceful setting backing directly onto Lytchett Bay Nature Reserve.

Situated on Sandy Lane, this unique 1930s home has been thoughtfully extended and tastefully styled, creating a light and spacious layout ideal for modern family living and entertaining. Few homes along this stretch enjoy such uninterrupted views of the bay.

The heart of the home is a large open-plan living/dining room with Karndean flooring and bi-fold doors that open onto the garden. A separate reception room offers flexible use as a study or snug. The kitchen/breakfast room, refitted in 2022, features classic Shaker-style units, a central island with breakfast bar, integrated AEG and Bosch appliances (including a wine fridge and induction hob), a Butler sink with Quooker tap, and space for an American-style fridge/freezer.

Upstairs, the master bedroom enjoys beautiful views across Lytchett Bay, a Juliet balcony, fitted wardrobes, and a luxurious four-piece en-suite. The second bedroom also features a Juliet balcony and its own updated en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are well-proportioned and served by a modern family bathroom.

Outside, the southerly rear garden stretches over 100 feet, with a stunning 9m x 5m heated swimming pool, Brazilian slate tiling, composite decking, and a spacious lawn beyond. A 10’ x 10’ summer house with power and lighting offers additional space for relaxing or working from home. The front of the property includes a garage with power, off-road parking for numerous vehicles.

Additional benefits include a new gas boiler (2024), new double glazing throughout (2022), upgraded bathrooms, and a re-fitted ground floor cloakroom. The home has been exceptionally well maintained by the current owners over the past 17 years.
