Banks Road, Sandbanks

Flag House is a near perfect beachfront house on the world famous Sandbanks Peninsula. It occupies one of the finest beachfront plots along this highly exclusive strip of Banks Road with the benefit of sizeable grounds and simply beautiful views. The house is especially attractive - in fact it is a heritage asset - but the current owner has lavished millions of pounds on a no expense spared re-imagining of the interior as well as the exterior resulting in nearly 8,000 square feet of lavishly appointed built form. The kitchen family room opens directly onto the private sun terrace and although part of the room is dressed for formal dining it would be perfect for informal sitting too. The banquette seating features a bespoke table inspired by Sunseeker. The integrated appliances are by top manufacturers such as Wolf and Miele. Other luxuries include a fully fitted media room with state of the art cinema and pool table, a wine cellar and a fully fitted walk-in coats area. The house boasts five super bedrooms but without question the principal bedroom is the most opulent. Apart from amazing views there is a marble clad bathroom with Swarovski crystal taps and a hugely impressive dressing area which even the most ardent fashionista would struggle to fill. The house also benefits from air conditioning, network cabling and a Sonos system with discrete ceiling speakers. The luxury specification continues outside with a beautiful limestone terrace and a large outdoor swimming pool complete with safety cover and a separate hot tub. Limestone steps connect to the lower garden where there is a substantial single storey leisure pavilion complete with kitchen and shower facilities. Finally there is an additional lawn and terrace connecting to a private gate leading directly to one of the most stunning beaches anywhere in the UK.
