This detached Purbeck stone bungalow, set on approximately 0.33 acres, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in the picturesque village of Langton Matravers. Originally constructed in 1955 by a local quarryman as his family residence, the property is now available for the first time, ready to welcome new owners who can reimagine its potential.
The layout includes a spacious entrance hallway, two sizable front rooms—one currently functioning as a sitting area with glimpses of the sea, while the other serves as the main bedroom. Additional accommodation features a kitchen/breakfast room with an adjacent walk-in larder, a utility/conservatory space, two double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC. An expansive attic room runs along the length of the roof, offering Velux windows that frame distant views.
Outdoor spaces are abundant and varied. The gardens include Purbeck stone pathways and patios, well-established lawns with perennials and shrubs, a raised pond, greenhouse, and sheds (one equipped with power), along with an area previously designated for vegetable gardening. The garage/workshop offers both power and lighting capabilities, while the driveway accommodates parking for two vehicles.
Langton Matravers is known for its community feel and convenient amenities including a school, shop, church, pub, and access to stunning walking routes such as the South West Coast Path and Priest’s Way. The sandy beaches of Swanage and Studland are only a short drive away; Swanage also boasts an array of shops and attractions like the Steam Railway.
While this cherished home is in need of updating throughout, it holds tremendous potential for modernisation or refurbishment—and possibly even extension—subject to local planning permissions. This property not only offers immediate comfort but also stands as an excellent investment opportunity in a desirable village location.
