Sandbanks conservation appraisal re-read November 2026

Long drive through the trees? Tell the surveyor how it runs

Tell the surveyor how the drive runs, how far the house sits from the road, and what overhangs it. Private drives that wind through the plots are typical of the Panorama Road area, Poole's 2009 conservation area appraisal says, and most houses there are set back from the road, nearer the shore.

  1. The bend. Say if the house is near a signed bend.
  2. Branches over the road, or over the drive.
  3. The drive itself, and how it winds between the trees.
  4. The house, how far back it sits, and the door the furniture goes through.
A drawing, not a real street.

On Panorama Road? Point out the bend and the branches

Panorama Road is wide, with a sharp bend and a climb along the way. The appraisal calls it a wide carriageway with tarmac pavements. Where the conservation area begins, at No.106, the bend is chevron-signed, and from there the road undulates and climbs, with tree branches sweeping over it.

Show the surveyor the drive from the road end, trees and all.

How it works

How does a Sandbanks move get from first call to written quote?

The price is written down only after the survey.

  1. Ring or the form
  2. Survey, drive first
  3. Price in writing
  1. Phone with a rough size

    A phone number, both postcodes and roughly how big the move is.

  2. Take the surveyor down the drive

    In person or on a video call, start with the drive from the road and the front door, then every room, the garage and the garden.

  3. Agree once the whole drive was seen

    If the house sits back down a long drive, make sure the surveyor saw all of it before you agree.

How does the van get onto the Sandbanks peninsula?

It comes by road over the narrow arm that joins the peninsula to the mainland at Banks Road, as the appraisal describes it. The appraisal puts the peninsula at about 600 metres wide and a kilometre long.

Panorama Road starts at Banks Road, immediately east of the ferry landing. Brownsea Road, and Salter and Grasmere Roads, also lead into the same part of the peninsula.

Questions

Is Sandbanks covered, and can a grand piano come out?

Rather ring?

Should the surveyor see the drive?

Yes. The way from the road to your door is part of the access, and the access at each end helps set the price.

Can you move a grand piano out of a Sandbanks house?

Yes, grand pianos included, quoted in writing with the rest of the house.

Is Sandbanks covered as part of Poole?

Yes, the whole peninsula is.
