This spacious modern apartment is situated on the second floor of a superior block which occupies an outstanding position on the southern slopes of the town and enjoys good views across Swanage Bay to Ballard Down, the Isle of Wight and Hampshire coastline in the distance.

The seaside town of Swanage lies at the Eastern tip of the Isle of Purbeck, delightfully situated between the Purbeck Hills. It has a safe, sandy beach, and is an attractive mixture of old stone cottages and more modern properties, all of which blend in well with the peaceful surroundings. To the South is the Durlston Country Park renowned for being the gateway to the Jurassic Coast and World Heritage Coastline. The market town of Wareham is some 9 miles away and has main line rail link to London Waterloo (about 2.5 hours).

Double doors open to the attractive circular balcony which enjoys views across the bay to the Isle of Wight in the distance.
