Description

This substantial detached chalet bungalow is well presented and quietly situated in a highly desirable location on the southern slopes of Swanage and within easy reach of Durlston Country Park. Built during the mid 20th Century, although extended and altered in more recent times, it is constructed of brick with part cement render to the front, cement rendered at the rear, under a tiled roof.

The living spaces are generously proportioned, including a ground floor bedroom and bathroom, making this an ideal choice for a family home and/or multi-generational living.  The attractive landscaped rear garden is a particular feature designed for relaxed outdoor living and there are good views of the sea and Purbeck Hills from the first floor.

The seaside resort of Swanage lies at the eastern tip of the Isle of Purbeck, delightfully situated between the Purbeck Hills. To the South is the Durlston Country Park renowned for being the gateway to the Jurassic Coast and World Heritage Coastline. The market town of Wareham, which has main line rail link to London Waterloo (approx 2.5 hours) is some 9 miles distant, with the conurbation of Poole and Bournemouth in easy reach via the Sandbanks ferry.

From the entrance porch, the central hallway giving access to all principal rooms. The good sized dual aspect living room is particularly light and has an attractive open fireplace. The dining room is also generously sized and both rooms have double glazed doors opening to the rear garden and paved terrace harmoniously blending the indoor/outdoor living space. The kitchen is at the front of the property and is fitted with a range of white units, contrasting worktops with space for freestanding cooker and fridge/freezer. A utility room, accessed from the dining room, complements the kitchen and also has access to the integral garage. Completing the ground floor is a good sized double bedroom, family bathroom and separate WC.
