Bedrooms: 5
This superior detached family house is well situated at the end of a residential cul-de-sac near the outskirts of Corfe Castle, it is about three quarters of a mile from the Village Square and Castle Ruins. Originally constructed during the 1960s, a self-contained flat was added at a later date; this has now been incorporated into the main house but could be reinstated if required.
‘Magnolia’ offers particularly stylish and immaculately presented, spacious accommodation set in attractive landscaped grounds virtually adjoining Corfe Common and Steam Railway. It has the considerable advantage of a stunning triple aspect master bedroom with en-suite shower room and balcony.
The quintessential village of Corfe Castle lies at the centre of the Isle of Purbeck and sits to the West of the seaside resort of Swanage (5 miles distant) with its fine, safe, sandy beach and the market town of Wareham a similar distance, which has main line rail links to London Waterloo (approx 2.5 hours). Much of the area surrounding the village is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty incorporating the Jurassic Coast, part of the World Heritage Coastline.
The entrance hall welcomes you to ‘Magnolia’ and leads to the exceptionally spacious living room boasting a double aspect and twin sets of casement doors opening to the South facing timber deck and garden blending inside and out to create a perfect entertaining space. The stylish kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of modern two tone units, contrasting wooden worktops and breakfast bar, Butler style sink, integrated gas hob and electric oven; double doors also lead to the garden at the rear. There is also a generous dining room and a utility/WC on this level.
