Main Description - Chartcombe consists of 78 prestigious apartments across two buildings, built in 1986. The development is set within Compton Acres, one of England’s finest privately-owned gardens, and apartment owners enjoy year-round free access. Designed for independent living for those aged 60 and over, the apartments can also be used as second homes or retirement residences. The freehold is collectively owned by the apartment owners through Chartcombe Properties Limited, with the directors being the flat owners and shareholders. The community is supported by an on-site Manager and Housekeeper.
This second-floor apartment, accessible via a lift, offers spacious accommodation throughout. The kitchen and living areas enjoy beautiful views toward Compton Acres. There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the primary bedroom featuring an en-suite bathroom and built-in wardrobes. The hallway includes a separate shower room and two storage cupboards, with an additional small storage cupboard located just outside the apartment in the communal hall.
The apartment benefits from underground parking, with a designated space and provision for visitor parking. The development offers two serviced guest rooms that can be reserved for visitors at £35 per night. Chartcombe has an active residents' committee that organises various activities. The opposite block features a striking four-story atrium with a glass roof, live plants on the internal balconies, and a library available to all residents.
The development is conveniently located just a 10-15 minute walk from Poole Harbour and the renowned Sandbanks beach. Bus stops outside Chartcombe provide regular services to Bournemouth and Poole, as well as an open-top service to Studland and Swanage. Canford Cliffs Village, with its boutique shops, cafes, and restaurants, is a short walk away, offering a relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere.
By car, London is approximately 2.5 hours away, with easy access to the Wessex Way. Direct rail routes connect to London and Manchester, while Bournemouth International Airport is one of the UK’s fastest-growing airports. From Poole, there are also ferry connections to France and the Channel Islands.
