If the view of the sea from this beachy Bournemouth home doesn’t grab you, then perhaps the ten-minute stroll to the beach and promenade will. It’s also a short walk from the town centre, where you’ll find seafood restaurants, shopping streets and beachside cafés galore. The entire ground floor is dedicated to open-plan living and socialising in a light and breezy fashion. Driftwood sculptures and duck-egg accents complement the otherwise pristine white design. Gather the group for breakfast in the big kitchen where bench seating offers an informal place to dine. Squashy armchairs and a huge sectional sofa provide a place for the whole family to hang out in the evening. On the lower ground floor, you’ll find a second, smaller kitchen and another living room for the group to spread out. Bedrooms are split over the first and second floors where pastel hues and beachy flourishes are sure to send you off to sleep dreaming of the sea.
