Description

This spacious detached bungalow is well situated standing on a good sized plot on the southern outskirts of the village in a quiet unmade cul-de-sac. It is approximately two thirds of a mile from the village Square which is dominated by the historic Castle ruins, with Corfe Common easily accessible nearby.

It is thought to have been built during the mid 20th Century and is of traditional cavity construction with a Purbeck stone plinth the remainder being cement rendered, under a tiled roof.

The spacious and versatile family accommodation features a generously sized open plan living room with double doors leading to the garden. It also enjoys an attractive landscaped South facing rear garden adjoining open countryside.

The quintessential village of Corfe Castle lies at the centre of the Isle of Purbeck and sits to the West of the seaside resort of Swanage (5 miles distant) with its fine, safe, sandy beach and the market town of Wareham a similar distance, which has main line rail links to London Waterloo (approx 2.5 hours). Much of the area surrounding the village is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty incorporating the Jurassic Coast, part of the World Heritage Coastline. 

The spacious entrance hall welcomes you to the property and is central to the accommodation. Leading off, the generously sized living room is particularly light enhanced by the large South facing picture windows and sliding doors to the paved patio blending the indoor/outdoor living space. The kitchen is fitted with a range of light units with contrasting worktops, integrated hob and double oven and is complimented by the adjoining utility room which gives access to the rear garden. There is also a cloakroom and home office (formerly part of the garage).
