Thunderbird is currently listed for sale by Sotheby’s Realty, and with an
asking price of just under £3million, the property has attracted a huge
amount of interest from budding buyers.
Steve Issacs, Head of Region for UK Sotheby’s International Realty, said: “Thunderbird
is a very well-known property. People from out of the area often ask us
about it so there is no doubt the design is memorable.
“Although the house is contemporary, it is far removed from some of the
square and minimalist houses which have become prolific in the area.
“Thunderbird also occupies a magnificent plot, undoubtedly one of the
best in Branksome Park and Canford Cliffs.
“Houses in the road have sold for up to £4 million so we believe this
could be an excellent opportunity for somebody who wants to acquire a highly
individual house at a realistic price-point.”

Despite not opening up to allow missiles to fly out, the Thunderbird still
boasts five en-suite bedrooms, three bathrooms, a cinema room, a luxury
fitted kitchen and a large living space spanning across the ground floor.
Located in the highly sought after Branksome Park area, there is also an
outdoor swimming pool, gym and a triple car garage, as well as a large
private garden to explore.
The unique features of this luxury abode have been recognised with a number of
awards, including best private home in the 2006 National Home Builder Design
awards.
