Property description
This character property is the end one of a small terrace of three, situated near the Southern outskirts of the historic village of Corfe Castle, about one mile from The Square and Castle Ruins. It is thought to have been constructed around the latter part of the 19th Century of stone under a pitched roof covered with clay tiles and Purbeck stone verges. The property is in need of updating, however, this factor is reflected in the price.
The village of Corfe Castle lies at the centre of the Isle of Purbeck about 5 miles from the seaside resort of Swanage and a similar distance from the market town of Wareham, the latter having main line rail link to London Waterloo (about 2.5 hours). Much of the surrounding area is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty and incorporates a World Heritage Coastline.
