This well appointed spacious first floor apartment is superbly positioned in a prominent position at South Swanage above Durlston Bay, a short distance from the entrance to Durlston Country Park, widely considered to be the gateway to the World Heritage Jurassic Coastline.
The apartment has the benefit of a large South facing balcony with excellent views of Durlston Bay, Country Park and the Isle of Wight, lift access, single garage and communal grounds. Whilst it is in need of some updating, it has a pleasant and spacious living space. Built during the 1970s, Purbeck Heights is of contemporary design with brick elevations under a flat roof covered with mineral felt or similar material.
Swanage lies at the south-eastern tip of the Isle of Purbeck. Much of the surrounding area is owned by the National Trust and is classified as being an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The market town of Wareham is some 9 miles distant and has main line rail links to London Waterloo (some 2.5 hours). The popular conurbations of Poole and Bournemouth and the exclusive Sandbanks peninsula are also within easy reach via the Sandbanks toll ferry.
The spacious entrance hall is central to the apartment and leads through to the generously sized South facing living room which enjoys excellent views over the well tended communal grounds across Durlston Bay to the Castle in the distance. Double doors open onto the South facing part glazed balcony which spans the full width of the apartment and commands similar views. Leading off, the kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of white units, contrasting worktops and integrated electric hob and double oven, with plumbing and space for a washing machine and freestanding fridge/freezer.
