Description

Savills are delighted to offer for sale “Tiami”, a magnificent waterfront residence that occupies arguably one of the finest waterfront positions in the area. It boasts an exceptionally rare elevated waterside plot extending to an approximate 0.6 acres with an extensive waterfrontage spanning an approximate 53 metres.

This is the first time the property has come to the market in over 32 years and indeed the first time that Tiami itself has been offered for sale since it was built by the current owners. It presents an incredibly rare once in a generation opportunity to purchase one of the area’s finest homes with breath-taking views of Poole Harbour, Brownsea island and castle and beyond.

The property is located in the highly desirable Elms Avenue, which is a beautiful sought after Avenue renowned for its waterfront homes and widely considered a quieter position than neighbouring Sandbanks. Tiami sits strikingly elevated and proud in its wide plot behind secure electric gates.

The whole property comprises 8,041 total square feet. Internally, the main house is arranged over three floors spanning 7,311 square feet of accommodation. The floor plan has been intelligently designed so that all the principle rooms benefit from the water views and flows effortlessly, with the majority of the accommodation being predominantly on the ground and first floor.

On entering this imposing home, you are immediately greeted by the stunning water views from the dining area, which is the perfect viewing platform to entertain or simply sit and take in the breath taking outlook over the water. The fitted kitchen, spacious sitting room, conservatory and indoor pool room all benefit from harbour views. The large panelled games room, study, office, snug and cloakroom complete the accommodation on the ground floor. The lower ground floor is currently set up as a one bedroom annexe, which is ideal for multi-generational living or can integrate with the main house depending on the needs of the next owner.

A grand central staircase leads up to the stunning galleried landing of the first floor with beautiful decorative cornicing and coving. The impressive main bedroom suite boasts sensational water views and has two balconies, plus a walk through fitted dressing area and en suite with separate bath and shower. Bedroom two also offers superb frontline harbour views with its own balcony and en suite shower room. There are four further bedrooms on this level served by two separate bath/shower rooms.

Externally, there is an extensive paved area to the rear in addition to areas laid to lawn, all from which you can soak up the sun in the warmer seasons, entertain guests, or simply enjoy the ever-changing beauty and activity of the water. There is a stepped path that leads down to the water’s edge, perfect for morning coffee or watching the sunset over the harbour. With direct access to the harbour for paddleboarding and other water sports, this truly is the ultimate coastal residence in terms of location and views. There is also combined storage totalling 165 sq ft. There is an extensive driveway to the front that offers parking for several cars as well as a 565 sq ft garage.

Tiami must be viewed in person to be fully appreciated for its immense water views, its unique plot, the quality of workmanship internally and its charm.
