STUNNING 3 BEDROOM PENTHOUSE APARTMENT WITH UNRIVALLED SEA VIEWS

This stunning spacious, bright and airy Penthouse apartment is located at the top of Ocean Heights, East Tower. In our opinion it boasts some of the best uninterrupted views on the south coast from the New Forest, through to Hengistbury Head, the Isle of Wight and the Needles in the East, to Bournemouth and Swanage in the west. The property is positioned directly on Boscombe cliff with access from its large communal well maintained gardens into public gardens and cliff walks dropping down to the sea promenade.

Ocean Heights itself has recently undergone major refurbishment including new roofs, brick work, internal and external redecoration and the lifts were refurbished in 2022. The penthouse occupies twice the footprint of the flats below and is accessed via a large communal entrance which in turn leads to two lifts and stairs taking you to the sixth floor.


A front door leads into an entrance lobby which in turn gives access to the large entrance hall which has a skylight. From here you will find a cloakroom, utility room which houses the boiler and two further storage cupboards. Double doors lead you into the impressive lounge/diner where the first thing you notice is the stunning sea views. There is ample room for sofas, dining table and chairs and a sliding door leads you into the enclosed south facing balcony which is ideal for taking in these 180 degree uninterrupted sea views. The kitchen/breakfast room has a good range of working surfaces incorporating a breakfast bar over cupboards and drawers with matching wall mounted cupboards, integrated halogen hob with extractor hood over, separate built in eye-level double oven, integrated dishwasher and space for fridge/freezer. From the window stunning views towards Hengistbury Head and the Isle of Wight. Bedroom 3 is a good size double with sea views and access to a balcony which in turn leads to a second enclosed balcony offering views of the sea, forest and town. From the hallway a door leads to the inner hall where there are 3 skylights and further storage cupboard as well as a cloakroom, low level w.c. and wash hand basin. Bedroom 1 again is a good sized room with built in wardrobes, sea views and sliding doors give you access in the enclosed balcony. You will also find an en-suite bathroom, panelled bath, low level w.c., wash hand basin and bidet. Bedroom 2 is also a double and again has doors leading into the enclosed balcony. The shower room which is found at the rear of the property, comprises of two walk in shower areas and a vanity unit incorporating a wash hand basin. There is a gas fired central heating system and double glazed windows.

Outside – the block is situated in beautifully maintained communal grounds being mainly laid to lawn with shrub borders. As previously mentioned, a gate gives access to the cliff top which in turn leads down to the beach and pier. To the front of the block there are 16 visitor parking spaces as well as access via in-and-out electric doors to the secure underground parking bays, of which 2 are conveyed with this penthouse. From here, the lift leads up to the apartment.
