‘Lyons House’ is a development of 6 apartments situated above commercial premises in the heart of the town approximately 100 metres from the seafront and beach and a short distance from the Steam Railway station and main shopping thoroughfare.
The original property comprised a three storey detached building constructed in 1948, and a fourth storey was added in the 2017 creating two further apartments designed by award winning architects Munden Robinson.
The apartments have been successfully holiday let for a number of years and each offer extremely stylish, spacious accommodation with views across the recreation ground to Swanage Bay and Ballard Down. Allocated parking is available with the second and third floor apartments and each flat will have the benefit of a new 150 year lease and BLP warranty.
Swanage lies at the eastern tip of the Isle of Purbeck delightfully situated between the Purbeck Hills. It has a fine, 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 the Durlston Country Park renowned for being the gateway to the Jurassic Coast and World Heritage Coastline.
