Description

This amazing apartment sits above almost everything else in Bournemouth, just moments from shops, bars, restaurants and sandy beaches. Owners of this eleventh floor home are treated to beautiful sunsets, streaming sun and multiple views rarely witnessed by the public. With a master bedroom balcony and a large wrap around terrace from the living/dining space that faces the sea, you have plenty of options for morning coffee, entertaining guests or perhaps even a workout with a view!


Lock & Leave.
Found on the 11th floor of this popular building, accessed via a secure door entry system and lift to the apartment level, you really are safe and sound above the hustle and bustle of the streets below. Those looking for a lock up and leave holiday home can rest assured knowing that the flat is secure, the cars are protected in the gated car park and there's minimal housework waiting for you upon returning. For those that would rather pedal, you can store your bike in a secure storage room downstairs. Thanks a the traditional layout, room shapes and space on offer, this home equally lends itself perfectly as a main residence. Despite large floor to ceiling windows and a contemporary finish throughout, there's a cosy sense of sophisticated penthouse living here that will have you excited to arrive home after a day out.


Entering the apartment is an event in itself with teasing Westerly views down the large hallway. Take a right towards the king size bedrooms (both en suite) or go straight for the living-dining-kitchen areas. The main living space is open plan but segmented enough to have clear designated areas for formal meals and lounging. The current owners have completely overhauled the kitchen with bespoke units, top of the range integral appliances, a moveable island and of course, a sliding door onto the main terrace. You'll be involved with guests even if you're chef for the night, whether they are at the table, lounging on the sofa or taking in the sunset on the balcony. Electric powered central heating keeps things toasty in the colder months- the sellers replaced the boiler last year to a super efficient electric boiler system (central heating), so that's one less thing to worry about, and the heat is kept in thanks to the triple glazing!


TWO Master Bedrooms?!
We can't decide which bedroom would be our main bedroom...and it's a lovely problem to have! Both are amazing sizes with built-in wardrobes and space for furniture. Both have en suites. Both easily take King/Super King beds. Guests will feel very comfortable here, as will you! With several storage solutions in the hallway, including a very large main walk in cupboard complete with shelving, plus a comfortable WC, there really are no compromises here.

Agent Note:
We've clocked ourselves walking to the beach in just 12 minutes- and that's with a full picnic!


Views On Views
.
It’s hard to not be taken aback by the views on offer here, whether its dreamy sunsets over the sea, crisp views of The Purbecks or eye-level firework displays on New Years Eve.
The large terrace is low maintenance and spans from the living room past the dining space and round to the kitchen...finding the sun isn't a problem here. A smaller, separate balcony is accessed from the main bedroom and is perfect for a two person bistro set.
Offering an enviable lifestyle above all else (literally), to those with a sophisticated taste for refinement & uncompromised apartment living. We envisage both young and mature buyers being very happy here- singles and couples alike- as a main residence or lock and leave base.


Richmond Gate is perfectly positioned to capture the all-day sun and this amazing home represents the essence of coastal apartment living, with captivating views from sunrise to sunset. Other amazing features to this gated building include the TWO allocated parking spaces, a lift to the apartment level, pets being allowed with permission and secure door entry system.
