Description

This attractive split level apartment is on the lower ground floor of an imposing Victorian building, is conveniently located about 300 metres from the Square and sea front. Springhill House is believed to have been constructed during the later part of the 19th Century, although sympathetically altered and converted into separate residential flats around 1998/1999. The building has external elevations of brick under a tiled roof. 


Hardy's Lair is presented to a high standard throughout and offers immaculately presented stylish accommodation with the benefit of its own personal entrance, a small enclosed terrace and dedicated parking space in the nearby grounds of the Purbeck House Hotel. It has been successfully holiday let generating a good income and audited accounts are available for inspection by genuine applicants upon request.  


The seaside resort of Swanage lies at the eastern tip of the Isle of Purbeck, delightfully surrounded by the Purbeck Hills.  It has a fine, safe, sandy beach, and is an attractive mixture of old stone cottages and more modern properties.  To the South is the Durlston Country Park renowned for being the gateway to the Jurassic Coast and World Heritage Coastline.
