A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE a WATERSIDE HOUSE IN A SUPERB LOCATION within an EXCLUSIVE PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT of Apartments and Homes. This cluster of some thirty notable, Spanish inspired properties is to be found on the shore beyond the renowned Victorian and Old Swanage Pier and Peveril Point in a HIGHLY DESIREABLE and PREMIER area of Swanage.
Adjacent to The Haven is the Wellington Clock Tower, salvaged from London by Gorge Burt and which stands as a reminder of the trade in local Purbeck Stone, a lot of which is to be found in the capital. The Victorian Pier is one of the most-loved attractions in the area with the old pier supports resembling statues above the waves. The southerly Downs slope gently uphill behind the complex forming a backdrop with the Jurassic Coastal walks to Durlston offering a viewpoint for Dolphin spotting.
Via a sheltered entrance door, an almost spiral staircase rises to the first floor hallway and the sleeping quarters comprising four spacious bedrooms.
The wide hallway leads through to the main Bedroom, and onto a large Balcony where the full seascape can be admired; to the left the Victorian Pier and sweeping Swanage Bay, and to the right the promontory of Ballard Down and rugged ledges of Peveril Point. This Bedroom has a range of floor to ceiling wardrobes with ample space to set freestanding furniture, and the Balcony an ideal position to admire sunrises in the East. The main Bedroom includes a private Bathroom en suite.
Adjacent, the second Bedroom has, through a picture window a similar vista of the Bay, and a wall-length range of built-in wardrobes. A family shower room serves Bedroom Two and, along the wide corridor, the southerly facing Bedrooms Three and Four. A large closet in the hallway provides space for cloaks and shoes.
Ascend the staircase to the second floor and enter an outstanding and capacious Reception/Dining Room with a vaulted ceiling provides an excellent frame to the floor to ceiling windows through which to watch the ever changing marine scenery.
To one side, a southerly and westerly facing sunroom provides maximum illumination into the reception room also access onto a substantial, private roof terrace where not only the sun may be enjoyed, but also, as on a ship’s deck, an elevated and open view of the sea and Purbeck Hills. This is a perfect space to bring envious friends to admire this wonderful vista.
Along the corridor, the large galley-style kitchen has a dual aspect and vaulted ceiling. Sun lights up the kitchen from the South and, through an opening, a view to the sea may still be enjoyed, thereby making this a very pleasant space for the chief cook to prepare meals. Although some updating may be required, the kitchen includes ample space for storage and modern appliances.
Finally, outside, parking is provided beneath a personal car-port and two unallocated spaces provide Visitors’ parking.
For sailing enthusiasts, the local Sailing Club is a few moments’ walk from The Haven and local Boat Park alongside the complex which has private access to the shore, slipways and clear sea. The property is within less than one kilometre from the bustling seaside town centre and safe, sandy main beach.
This is the perfect opportunity to design and enjoy a superior property whilst enjoying the clear and invigorating air experienced from this perfectly placed property which has been cherished by the same owners since it was first built.
