This first floor flat occupies an excellent position approximately 200 metres from the town centre and slightly further from the beach. It is situated in a substantial detached property originally constructed around the turn of the 20th Century and extended and converted into residential flats during the 1980s. The building has brick elevations with Purbeck stone dressings under a concrete interlocking tiled roof.

Having the considerable advantage of a balcony overlooking the Swanage Steam Railway, the apartment offers well presented accommodation with gas fired central heating, allocated parking and is eminently suitable for the first time buyer or as an investment.

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.

This apartment is ideal for train enthusiasts, situated in the heart of the town, close to the beach. The entrance hall leads to the spacious living room with large South facing bay window overlooking the Steam Railway Station. The kitchen is fitted with a modern range of light units, contrasting worktops and integrated electric hob and oven.
