A rare south-facing residence in Bournemouth's most coveted address. 1,100 sq ft of contemporary coastal living — five minutes from the sand, a world away from the ordinary.
The Wessex stands on one of Bournemouth's most storied plots — the site of the original Wessex Hotel, opened in 1891, where Edwardian society came to promenade, take the sea air, and be seen. Today, that same spirit of privileged coastal living has been reborn in two elegant contemporary buildings, designed by award-winning Inland Homes.
Your apartment sits within this landmark development, just a five-minute walk from seven miles of Blue Flag beaches, and moments from the clifftop gardens, restaurants, and boutiques that make West Cliff one of the south coast's most desirable postcodes.
This is not a flat near the beach. This is a life at the sea.
At 1,100 square feet, this is not a typical two-bedroom apartment. South-facing throughout, the principal rooms are flooded with natural light from morning to dusk. Step through the living room onto your private balcony and feel the coastal breeze. Open the patio doors in both bedrooms to their own Juliet balconies, and wake up to open sky.
Every detail has been considered. Underfloor heating runs throughout. A state-of-the-art MVHR ventilation system draws in fresh sea air while retaining warmth. Bosch appliances. Porcelanosa tiles. A water softener. High-quality wooden flooring. These are not afterthoughts — they are the standard at The Wessex.
Open sky and sea glimpses, sunshine from morning to evening.
Your allocated space, safe and private — a rarity on the West Cliff.
Wake up to coastal light and open air in every principal room.
Warm in winter, fresh all year round — quiet, even comfort throughout.
Walk-in shower, marble-effect tiles, mirrored storage.
Work from the coast, without compromise.
Bournemouth has more sunshine than almost anywhere else in the UK. On a summer morning you can walk to the beach in five minutes, take the cable lift down the cliffs to the promenade, and cycle east along the shore as the town wakes up around you.
At the weekend, the clifftop restaurants fill with people who made the right decision. WestBeach for seafood with a view. The Triangle for something more bohemian. Westover Road — Bournemouth's Bond Street — for a different kind of Saturday afternoon.
Meyrick Park, with its 18-hole golf course, spa, and symphony concerts, is a mile away. Dean Park Cricket Ground is closer still. And when you want the city, London Waterloo is under two hours by train.
This is coastal life without compromise. The beach when you want it. The city when you need it. And on every ordinary Tuesday — a home that reminds you why you chose this.
