Description

Stepping through the front door, a welcoming PORCH provides space for coats and shoes before opening into the central ENTRANCE HALL, which forms the heart of the home and connects the principal accommodation.

To one side lies the breathtakingly spacious SITTING ROOM, a wonderfully bright room with large, glazed doors opening onto the sunny rear garden. Generous in scale, it offers ample space for both seating and entertaining, while a fireplace provides a cosy focal point during the winter months.

Beyond is the KITCHEN, fitted with a range of cabinetry and work surfaces and benefiting from a useful SIDE PORCH providing direct access outside. Nearby is the DINING ROOM, creating an ideal space for family meals and more formal occasions.

Also off the hallway is the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM, a comfortable double bedroom enjoying a pleasant outlook and conveniently positioned alongside the principal living spaces. Opposite is BEDROOM TWO, another well-proportioned double room enjoying a charming bay window that draws in plenty of natural light. Its position offers flexibility and it could equally serve as a further reception room, home office or playroom depending upon a purchaser's requirements.

Serving the ground floor bedrooms is the FAMILY BATHROOM, recently refitted with a bath and overhead shower, wash basin and W.C.
Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the upper floor where the ATTIC ROOM provides a spacious and highly versatile space. One can easily imagine this becoming a principal bedroom suite, whilst others may prefer to use it as a home office, studio or overflow guest accommodation.

Benefiting from excellent proportions and useful eaves storage, the room enjoys a surprising degree of privacy from the remainder of the house.

Adjacent is a useful SNUG, which would make an ideal dressing room, study or occasional guest space. Velux™ windows frame attractive views across neighbouring rooftops towards Ballard Down beyond.

Completing the first floor is a contemporary SHOWER ROOM fitted with shower, wash basin and W.C.

The overall layout creates a home that is both practical and adaptable, combining generous reception space with flexible bedroom accommodation suited to a variety of lifestyles. Throughout their ownership, the current vendors have maintained the property to an exacting standard, creating a home that is ready to be enjoyed by its next owners.

Outside
To the front of the property there is ample parking, making it an unusually practical home for those with interests requiring additional storage and parking space.

A side passage leads through to the principal gardens, where much of the space is laid to lawn and framed by established borders planted with a colourful mixture of shrubs and flowering plants. A pathway, bordered by gravel, leads to a practical garden shed, providing useful storage for tools and outdoor equipment.

The gardens enjoy a sunny aspect and provide plenty of space for children, pets and outdoor entertaining. Well-tended and thoughtfully arranged, they offer an attractive balance between open lawn and established planting.

Towards the rear, a raised DECKING AREA provides the perfect spot to enjoy the last of the evening sunshine. Taking advantage of both the privacy and outlook afforded by the gardens, it creates an ideal setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing at the end of the day. Subject to any necessary consents, it could also provide an excellent location for a garden studio, home office or summer chalet.

Location
One of the property's greatest attractions is its position. From the front door, it is a short and largely level walk into the heart of Swanage, making it particularly appealing for those seeking convenience without sacrificing space or parking.

The town centre offers an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and traditional pubs, alongside everyday amenities including supermarkets, medical facilities and a library. Swanage remains a thriving seaside town throughout the year rather than simply a seasonal destination, with a strong local community and a busy calendar of events.

The award-winning sandy beach is within easy reach and provides safe bathing, water sports and miles of coastline to explore. The Victorian pier, theatre, cricket club and numerous galleries contribute to the town's vibrant character, while the historic Swanage Railway offers steam train journeys through the Purbeck countryside to the iconic village of Corfe Castle.

Surrounded by the spectacular landscapes of the Jurassic Coast, Swanage offers an enviable balance of coastal living, countryside walks and everyday convenience, making it one of Dorset's most sought-after places to live.

About DOMVS, Wareham

8 South Street, Wareham, BH20 4LT

The DOMVS Approach to Selling Property

We always start with a clear strategy. We take time to understand your home, the local market and buyer behaviour, ensuring pricing and positioning are right from the outset. Every step in the process is meticulously considered, from presentation and marketing through to negotiation and completion.

We get that no two homes are the same, and neither is the way they should be launched. We tailor the approach to suit the property, whether that is a full market launch, an ‘offers over’ strategy or a discreet introduction through our Whisper List. Our role is to generate the right level of interest and convert that into a successful sale.

Once a sale is agreed, our dedicated sales progression team works proactively with all parties to resolve issues early and maintain momentum. This combination of preparation, negotiation and progression is what protects your sale and delivers results.

Our approach is shaped by three core values: integrity, empathy and determination. We give clear, honest advice, understand the personal nature of moving, and remain focused on securing the strongest outcome for our clients.

Our Marketing

Every property benefits from professional photography, carefully written descriptions and, where appropriate, enhanced visuals such as drone footage or virtual staging. This is supported by our in-house marketing team, who deliver targeted campaigns designed to reach an engaged and relevant audience. Our sellers benefit from:

• A fully optimised website attracting an average of 20,500 visitors each month

• Targeted email and digital campaigns to a database of over 20,000 engaged subscribers

• Social media activity generating over 60,000 monthly views and thousands of website visits

• SEO-led campaigns and tailored landing pages designed to connect specific buyers with specific properties

• Access to national and local press opportunities

Our Network

As members of The Guild of Property Professionals and The Mayfair Office, we combine local expertise with national and international reach, including a presence in London. Our Dorset-wide team works collaboratively, sharing buyers across all offices and introducing properties to audiences beyond their immediate location.

About Our Wareham Team

Our Wareham office, on the town’s bustling high street, sits at the gateway to the Isle of Purbeck, an area known for its coastline, countryside and distinctive Dorset character. You’ll be working with Greg, who brings more than three decades of estate agency experience, alongside his local team of property specialists, all with a deep understanding of the town and its surrounding villages. From country houses and quaint cottages to modern developments, we know how to present property in a way that resonates with both local and relocating buyers.

Our Services

Our sales team is complemented by a dedicated lettings and property management team, providing a fully managed service designed to protect property investments and minimise day-to-day involvement. Our holiday lettings team also supports owners seeking an alternative income stream.

Our new homes team works closely with developers and buyers, offering guidance from initial launch through to successful sales, while our Land & Development consultancy advises on site acquisition, planning and value optimisation for both individual plots and larger opportunities.

This breadth of expertise ensures our clients benefit from informed, joined-up advice, whatever their property goals.
