Hillsea Road, Swanage

This substantial detached chalet-style residence is pleasantly situated in a popular residential area, approximately three quarters of a mile from the town centre and beach and some 350 metres from local convenience store and bus stops.  It is thought to have been built during the 1920s and is of traditional cavity construction with external elevations of natural Purbeck stone under a clay tiled roof.

It also has the considerable advantage of a good-sized rear garden, a detached garage and off-road parking.
