POOLE is arguably one of the most exclusive and exciting places to live on the south coast, with the second largest natural harbour in the world.

These waters are famous for year-round sports including windsurfing, water skiing, jet skiing, kite surfing, sailing and swimming.

Laguna is one of the more significant properties in Poole that has been designed by the renowned award winning architects Terrence O’Rourke. What sets it apart from many other impressive properties is its eye-catching contemporary style and its direct access to the water.

Laguna makes both a perfect family house and weekend holiday home. It has been magnificently designed and engineered to capture every aspect of waterfront living, with all principal reception rooms and bedrooms having spectacular views out across the Blue Lagoon towards Poole Harbour and Brownsea Island with the Purbeck hills beyond.

Care has been taken to ensure that all the modern comforts and fixtures and fittings come together effortlessly throughout to create an extremely comfortable and luxurious house in a delightful waterfront position.

Laguna is also a wonderful house for entertaining. The large open-plan sitting/kitchen/dining area links via sliding patio doors to the fabulous south-facing patio and rear garden that stretches down to and overlooks the Blue Lagoon. This creates a magnificent entertainment space; perfect for spring and summer parties. The dining section has a double height area above with a glass atrium.
