Mannington Hall, 16 Portarlington Road, Bournemouth BH4 8BY

Set within the highly sought-after ‘Golden Grid’, this well-presented second floor apartment combines space, style and a wonderfully convenient location. Just a short stroll will take you to the award-winning sandy beaches, perfect for morning walks or sunset evenings, while the fashionable village of Westbourne, with its array of boutique shops, independent cafés and renowned restaurants, is equally close at hand. Bournemouth town centre is also within easy reach, placing every amenity and leisure pursuit right on the doorstep.

The heart of the home is the beautifully bright, southerly-facing lounge/dining room. Generous in proportion and opening onto a private balcony, it offers the perfect setting for entertaining friends, relaxing with a book, or simply soaking up the afternoon sun. The separate kitchen is both practical and stylish, designed with ample storage and workspace, and fitted with modern appliances including an integral hob, oven, extractor, washer/dryer and upright fridge/freezer, ideal for both everyday living and occasional hosting.

Two spacious double bedrooms provide comfortable retreats, each neutrally decorated and offering excellent scope for personal styling. The bathroom features a contemporary four-piece suite, complete with bath, separate shower cubicle, wash hand basin and WC. Thoughtful storage solutions, including three cupboards, add to the home’s sense of ease and functionality.

Beyond the apartment itself, the development enjoys a peaceful setting with well-tended communal gardens that provide a leafy outlook to the front and rear. A private single garage with parking in front, discreetly screened by mature hedging, offers convenience and security, while the internal communal areas are presented to the same high standard, reflecting the quality of this well-cared-for block.
