This substantial detached house is situated in a small and select residential cul-de-sac on the southern outskirts of the popular village of Langton Matravers a short distance from the village centre and Parish Church. Open countryside and access to the Jurassic Coast are close by.
Durlsmere is an attractive detached house constructed during the 1920s and is adjacent to open country at the rear. It offers well planned, versatile family accommodation and modern kitchen and bathroom suites complement the easy living style. Amongst the fine features of this property, it commands pleasant rural views from the first floor and there is a private and enclosed good sized rear garden which offers the perfect entertaining space.
The village lies 2.5 miles to the West of the seaside resort of Swanage and some 9 miles from the market town of Wareham, the latter having main line rail link to London Waterloo (approximately 2.5 hours). Much of the area surrounding the village is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
