Description

This spacious detached home sits on the northern outskirts of Swanage, adjacent to Days Park and conveniently located near local amenities, a primary school, and access to the beach via Burlington Chine. Constructed in 1936, the property features a combination of brick and cement-rendered elevations beneath a pitched concrete-tiled roof. St. Michaels offers generous family accommodation with three bedrooms and multiple living spaces that can accommodate various needs. The inviting entrance hall leads to a sizable south-facing living room, which includes a tiled fireplace and double doors that open to the rear garden. A second reception room functions currently as a dining area, while the kitchen is equipped with light cabinetry and contrasting worktops, along with a freestanding cooker and side porch access. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms: two well-proportioned doubles and a single. The principal bedroom benefits from ample natural light thanks to its south-facing orientation and includes a fitted cupboard for storage convenience. The second bedroom also overlooks the garden, while the third bedroom is positioned at the front of the house. Completing this level are a bathroom and separate WC. The outdoor space consists of an attractive south-facing rear garden that has been thoughtfully landscaped, featuring established shrubs and flower borders alongside a kitchen garden section. There’s off-road parking available for one to two vehicles leading up to a detached garage, complemented by a front garden largely laid to lawn. While St. Michaels has been well maintained over the years, it presents an opportunity for modern updates or renovations tailored to personal taste. Its location in Swanage—a seaside resort known for its stunning sandy beach and proximity to Durlston Country Park—enhances its appeal for both families and investors alike. With easy access to transport links including nearby Wareham's rail service connecting directly to London Waterloo, this property holds significant investment potential in an area celebrated for its natural beauty and local charm.
