Description

This individually designed house is located in an enviable quite semi-rural position on the southern side of Harmans Cross. 'Deep Down' stands in extensive grounds of approximately 0.4 of an acre (0.163 hectares) and commands excellent views to the South over adjoining open countryside. It features particularly spacious and versatile family accommodation and has the advantage of a substantial detached double garage/workshop which could form further accommodation, subject to planning consent, and parking for several vehicles.

It was built during the 1950s of brick cavity construction under a pitched roof covered with a plain concrete tiled roof.

The village of Harmans Cross lies in the heart of the Isle of Purbeck, some 2.5 miles from the seaside resort of Swanage and a similar distance from the historic village of Corfe Castle.  It has a large modern village hall and the popular railway station which connects to Wareham and the mainline train service to London Waterloo during the summer season, serving Corfe Castle to Swanage all year round. Beaches at Studland and Swanage and the market town of Wareham are some 8 miles distant.  Much of the surrounding area is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty and incorporates a World Heritage Coastline.

The entrance porch leads to the hall which is central to the accommodation and welcomes you to Deep Down. Leading off is the generous triple aspect living room with views over the garden and countryside and has a feature fireplace. The dual aspect dining room at the rear of the property enjoys similar views. The kitchen is fitted with a range of light units with contrasting worktops and integrated electric oven and hob. A double bedroom and cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level.
