Demand for property on Britain’s version of Miami Beach has gone through the roof since the start of the pandemic.
This is mainly due to wealthy people moving out of London and the Home Counties as they can now work remotely.
There is said to be the equivalent of a three year waiting list for waterside property worth over £1m in the area.
And although this five bedroom house is priced at the higher-end of the market, it is still likely to be snapped up soon.
Within the past four years several luxury mansions on the same row have changed hands for big money.
One of those was the former home of Harry and Sandra Redknapp that recently sold for £10.5m.
The latest property to come on the market was only built in 2003 and the current owner, a millionaire businessman, bought it three years later.

The property is being jointly marketed by estate agents Tailor Made and Savills.
Robert Dunford, of Tailor Made, said: ‘We have unprecedented demand for high-end waterside homes at the moment, principally from buyers that are international and London based.
‘With the undersupply of property currently available, this is the only waterfront home in Sandbanks to come to the market and we anticipate strong interest.’
Keith Fensom, of estate agents Savills, said: ‘The market for property on Sandbanks remains very strong.
‘There is nothing else for sale on the waterfront at the moment and we have a list of prospective buyers to notify so we don’t expect this to hang around for long.
‘This house is one of 14 exclusive properties located along the elite stretch of Sandbanks coastline at the entrance of Poole Harbour.
‘It can be difficult to have privacy on Sandbanks as the properties tend to be very close to each other but this section has some of the largest plots and the houses are hidden from the main road, behind electronic gates and trees.’
