The property is currently tenanted, with the tenant reported to have served notice, and is offered with no forward chain.

Grade CPotential opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £295,000, this three-bedroom terrace is priced below the local average at £386/sq ft versus £434/sq ft, making the asking price a clear acquisition strength. The home is occupied and usable, with a functional fitted kitchen and bathroom, while its dated finishes offer scope for a light refresh rather than a major overhaul.
The westerly lounge and garden, Purbeck stone fireplace and views towards the hills give it some character, and the village setting is close to open-country walks and around two miles from Swanage. The rear garden would benefit from tidying. Check the residency covenant and the sale terms; there is no forward chain, and no off-street or allocated parking is stated.
Key opportunities
- Acquire below the local average £/sq ft and refresh the dated finishes without taking on a major renovation.
- Make the most of the westerly lounge and garden, including the distinctive Purbeck stone fireplace and stove.
- Improve the enclosed garden’s presentation with routine tidying of the patchy lawn and planting.
