Description

This detached bungalow, previously serving as the Warden's Bungalow for a nearby youth hostel, is nestled on the gentle slopes of Swanage, just a short walk from the Town Square and seafront. Built in the 1990s, the property features traditional cavity construction with brick and timber cladding under a pitched interlocking tile roof. While the bungalow requires significant updating throughout, it boasts generous living space and potential views of Swanage Bay. This site presents an exciting opportunity for redevelopment, subject to obtaining planning permission. Positioned conveniently near the scenic Durlston Country Park and within reach of both Poole and Bournemouth via the Sandbanks ferry, this location is ideal for those looking to invest in an attractive coastal area. The layout includes an inviting entrance hall leading into a spacious kitchen equipped with ample dining space and wooden units paired with contrasting worktops. A few steps up lead to a bright dual-aspect living room featuring south-facing sliding patio doors that open onto a paved patio and garden area. Within the home are three bedrooms; the principal suite is particularly large and enjoys southern exposure. The second bedroom is also sizable with a fitted wardrobe, while the third room serves well as a single bedroom or home office. The bathroom is fitted with a classic colored suite including a bath with overhead shower. The surrounding garden incorporates lawned areas with shrub borders, a south-facing patio, and even a greenhouse. Additionally, access via a shared driveway provides parking at the rear. This property not only holds immediate personal potential but also presents considerable investment prospects in an appealing seaside town.
