edit - maybe I am a 'special kind of tosser'
I always fancied that square Bauhaus-looking property at the bottom of the hill. No idea who owns it now, but at least it's been restored.

No, I think you are safe from what you have written above. You don't sound like you are part of the Bournemouth set, at all.
It represents the very basics of supply and demand. People can afford it, there is high demand, low supply, houses rocket in price.
Anyone for a small East Dorset ride out to the perbecks?

Haha, definitely not. Now you put it like that, I think I know the type you mean.

Yeah go on then, I'm in. 🙂
I've never got the appeal of Sandbanks (or the surrounding areas like Parkstone etc) especially due to the traffic and expensive houses on minuscule plots of land. That's why we ended up in Ferndown as it's much better value and more importantly much more laid back.
Having moved down here 3 years ago I love the south coast and everything there is to do here but avoid Sandbanks like the plague. If I had to live by the water I'd much rather live on the "poor" side of the bay between Poole Park and the Quay.

I'd be up for that.
Supply and demand. Small area, people want in, costs start to rise, money attracts money. QED.
I work on the West coast of US, silicon valley, and $2M is defined as 'entry' in somewhere like Los Gatos, as in, starter home. Ditto places like Portland etc. Again, high demand, limited stock.
You would have thought they would be more concerned by all those earthquakes caused by fracking the wells that go underneath and nearby :-
