Old Orchard is an attractive detached house standing in landscaped grounds on the Northern outskirts of Langton Matravers close to the village centre and Parish Church. The property was built in 1997 for the current owners and has external elevations of natural Purbeck stone under a stone tiled roof.

Amongst the fine features of this property is the extremely spacious master bedroom suite with double doors opening to a good sized balcony which has views across the adjoining open countryside to the Purbeck Hills in the distance.

The village lies 2.5 miles to the West of the seaside resort of Swanage and some 9 miles from the market town of Wareham, the latter having main line rail link to London Waterloo (approximately 2.5 hours). Much of the area surrounding the village is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The spacious entrance hall welcomes you to Old Orchard. Leading off, the generous dual aspect living room has a feature Purbeck stone fireplace with fitted gas fire, beamed ceiling and double doors opening to both the conservatory and the rear garden.
