There are stays in Poole and then there are stays right on Pool Quay. In the very heart of things, this new home has been built overlooking the harbour, with views from almost every window. Just outside you'll see the busy boats, cafes and restaurants of this hub of activity, with the shipyard of one of the world's biggest luxury motor yacht companies just across the water and the ferry to Brownsea Island just steps away. Inside, there's a modern, white and cream look to this sparkling apartment, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a sociable, open layout to the living space. There's a well-kitted-out kitchen for cooking at home and a small but perfectly formed balcony – big enough to sit out on with a morning coffee (or an evening glass of wine). With the high street around the corner and the local museum across the street, locations don't get any more convenient.
