3 Bedroom Detached House

This linked semi-detached family house is situated on the western outskirts of Swanage, adjoining farmland at the rear. It is within easy reach of primary and secondary schools and local amenities. Thought to have been constructed during the 1950s, it is of cavity brick under a pitched roof covered with interlocking tiles.

Whilst in need of updating throughout, 41 Holmes Road offers spacious and well-planned family accommodation with views across the valley to the Purbeck Hills in the distance. It also has the advantage of a good sized South facing garden which adjoins farmland at the rear.  NB. There is a local authority covenant on the property which states that the purchaser must have lived and/or worked in the Dorset area for the last 3 years. 

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 mixture of old stone cottages and more modern properties, all of which blend in well with the peaceful surroundings. To the South is Durlston Country Park renowned for being the gateway to the Jurassic Coast and World Heritage Coastline.

The hall welcomes you to this family home and leads through to the spacious dual aspect living room which overlooks the garden at the rear. A glazed sliding door leads to the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of light units, contrasting worktops, pantry and space and plumbing for appliances. The South facing dining room provides a good sized second reception or fourth bedroom, if required. There is access from the kitchen to the side porch which leads to a WC and store.
