4 bed bungalow for sale

Russell Avenue, Swanage BH19

This substantial detached bungalow is situated in an excellent position on the southern slopes of Swanage at Durlston and close to the Townsend Nature Reserve. It offers generously proportioned accommodation, which flows naturally throughout. In our opinion there is scope to form an extension, subject to planning consent. Attractive landscaped grounds surround the property and are a particular feature of the bungalow.

Built during the 1960s, it has attractive external elevations of natural Purbeck stone under a pitched roof covered with concrete interlocking tiles. Quietly situated at the end of a cul-de-sac, Russell Avenue is considered by many to be the premier residential area of Swanage and is perfectly located for walkers, and dog owners, the dramatic coastline and a haven for a diversity of wildlife close by.

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 mix of old stone cottages and more modern properties, all of which blend in well with the peaceful surroundings. Durlston is close by and is a gateway to the Jurassic Coast World Heritage site.

Double glazed doors lead to the good sized kitchen/dining room fitted with a range of modern units with complementing worktops, breakfast bar and a range of integrated appliances. Beyond is the triple aspect home office/study, which could be used as a fourth bedroom if required. Also leading from the kitchen is the conservatory which overlooks the rear garden and has a door to the paved terrace, harmoniously blending the indoor/outdoor living space.
