EAST STREET, CORFE CASTLE

IMPORTANT NOTE As typical with properties of this age there is limited head height of approx. 1.9m (6’3”).

This compact Grade II Listed cottage is situated in the historic village of Corfe Castle approximately 500 metres from the Square and Castle ruins. It is thought to date back to 1750 with small extensions having been added in more recent times. The main building is constructed of natural Purbeck stone under a stone tiled roof.

Whilst in need of some updating, Hibbs Cottage offers a rare opportunity to acquire a character stone cottage in the village. It has the considerable advantage of an enclosed rear garden with access from Abbots Cottages to allow parking.

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 small entrance leads through to the character filled living room with Inglenook stone fireplace, window seat and beamed ceiling.
