Description

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a superior detached Purbeck stone bungalow  quietly situated in an outstanding tranquil position on the edge of the picturesque village of Worth Matravers. There are views across National Trust land to the front and to the sea down the Winspit Valley from the garden. It is close to the World Heritage Coastline and the renowned beauty spots of Winspit and Chapmans Pool.

The property has been been owned by the same family since it was constructed in 1996 and is immaculately presented with modern luxury shower room suites having been fitted in recent times. The well planned layout has been designed to make the most of the generous floor area and to maximise the light. In addition to the easily maintained courtyard garden it has the benefit of a small paddock land adjacent to the bungalow. It is constructed of natural Purbeck stone, under a roof covered with Spanish slate.

Worth Matravers stands on a headland about 1 mile from the sea and is nationally renowned for its scenic beauty. The area is particularly known as a haven for walkers and naturalists and has remained completely unspoilt over the years.  4 miles to the East is the seaside resort of Swanage, and the market town of Wareham is some 9 miles distant, the latter having a main line rail link to London Waterloo (some 2.5 hours).  Much of the area is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Entering this superbly presented bungalow, the entrance hall is central to the accommodation and leads to the generously sized living room which has triple aspects accentuating the light. There is a feature Purbeck stone fireplace and there are double doors leading to the South facing walled garden harmoniously blending the indoor/outdoor living space. The kitchen is at the front of the property and is fitted with a range of cottage style units and integrated electric hob and oven.
