Northbrook Road, Swanage, BH19

This spacious apartment comprises the entire second floor of a substantial detached building standing some 500 metres from the town centre and beach. Esmond was converted into flats during the 1980s and is of brick construction with pebbledash and tiled hung elevations and Purbeck stone dressings under a tiled roof.

5 Esmond has been refurbished throughout by the current owner and now offers well presented accommodation with the advantage of open plan living room/kitchen and a personal South facing roof terrace giving views across the town to the sea in the distance. It also has the benefit of a dedicated parking space.

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.
