This modern apartment is situated on the first floor of a substantial detached building originally constructed around the turn of the 20th Century although converted and completely refurbished in 2007. It stands in a fine position on the southern slopes of the town about a third of a mile from the town centre and a similar distance from Durlston Country Park and the coastal path.

The building has external elevations of part Purbeck stone, the remainder being cement render under a pitched roof covered with plain tiles. It stands in its own landscaped grounds with parking at the rear.

Swanage lies at the Eastern tip of the Isle of Purbeck delightfully situated between the Purbeck Hills. It has a fine, safe, sandy beach, and is an attractive mixture of old stone cottages and more modern properties, all of which blend in well with the peaceful surroundings. To the South is Durlston Country Park renowned for being the gateway to the Jurassic Coast and World Heritage Coastline.

The entrance hall is central to the accommodation of this modern apartment and leads through to the large open plan living room/kitchen. It has a wide bay window which enjoys views across Swanage Bay to Ballard Down in the distance. The kitchen area is fitted with a range of light units, contrasting worktops and integrated electric oven and gas hob.
