Branksome Park:
Branksome Park is one of Poole's most affluent areas alongside Sandbanks Canford Cliffs Evening Hill Lilliput and Salterns Marina. It is on the border of Poole with Bournemouth being on the other side of The Avenue. It is less than two miles from the shopping areas of Westbourne and The Square in the centre of Bournemouth.
House prices vary widely in the area; there are small 1960s flats costing just under £200 000 and mansions costing well over £3 million. A new mansion called Sleon House with 12 000 square feet of living accommodation was recently built with a price tag of £5 250 000. The area is a contrast to neighbouring Sandbanks whilst although being affluent the community is not focused towards development based around the beach; there are very few properties directly on the waterfront. Instead most of the residential zone of Branksome park is inland.
Local facilities include a sports area with tennis courts and a bowling field. Branksome park also has a small public library and is home to the All Saints Church constructed in 1877 and a school for disabled children which is located on the outskirts of the area.
Branksome Park has seen much residential development in recent years. However the styles of new buildings remain much less controversial than other places such as Sandbanks. However the architect Eddie Mitchell (owner of Seven Developments) received planning permission and has recently finished construction of a controversial building development known as the 'Thunderbird' which is a 6 000 square foot residential development. The building has also received many awards making it one of the best-known residential buildings of Dorset.
Because the style and architecture of existing housing stock is much older new plans for developments must fit in with existing properties and styles. According to the rules on development in Branksome Park one can only build more than one property on a plot that is 3/4 of an acre or larger. In 2006 two large Victorian houses were demolished to make way for a controversial new housing development with 21 three storey homes.
Famous residents
