This superior first floor apartment is situated in a highly sought after location in South Swanage adjoining Durlston Country Park and the World Heritage Jurassic Coastline and is approx half a mile from the town centre and beach. No: 4 Hillcrest is situated in a purpose built block of two which is part of a larger development of some 20 properties. It is thought to have been constructed during the 1970s and has external walls of natural Purbeck stone, part tile hung under a pitched roof covered with concrete tiles.
The apartment has the considerable advantage of a large South facing living room with balcony leading off which enjoys fine views across Durlston Bay and the landscaped communal grounds.
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.
Approached by its own personal entrance, the hall leads through to the spacious South facing living room with access to the semi-enclosed balcony offering fine views across Durlston Bay. The kitchen is fitted with a range of white units, contrasting worktops, integrated electric oven, hob and dishwasher.
