Deal Cottage, Herston, Swanage – A Grade II Listed 2-Bedroom Gem with Stunning Views

Step back in time and embrace the character of Deal Cottage, a traditional Purbeck stone mid-terrace 2-bedroom cottage nestled in the heart of Herston, Swanage. This Grade II listed property, once a quarryman's home, offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern comfort.

Recently renovated throughout, Deal Cottage boasts stunning views of the Purbeck Hills, including Ninebarrow and Ballard Down. The cottage is perfectly situated for exploring the Jurassic Coast and the Isle of Purbeck, with Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove just a 30-minute drive away. Swanage town centre and beach are a pleasant 20-minute (2km) walk.

Inside, you'll find a cosy space that has been lovingly updated. The kitchen and bathroom were fully renovated in 2024, featuring brand-new appliances and luxury fittings. The ground floor showcases a new luxury bathroom suite with matte black taps and fittings, a bath with rain and handheld shower, motion sensor LED floor lighting, a humidity sensor extractor fan, an LED illuminated anti-fog mirror, and a shaver/toothbrush charger point.

The living room is a highlight, featuring an original Purbeck stone fireplace and lintel, uncovered during renovations. The owner has installed a wood burner, creating a perfect spot for cosy evenings.

Upstairs, the restful bedroom offers king-size comfort and breathtaking views of the Purbeck Hills. A small second bedroom is also available, ideal for guests or as a study.

The south-facing courtyard garden is a delightful space for morning coffee, with space for seating and the gentle sound of steam trains from nearby Herston Halt station. A shed and wood store provide practical storage.

Deal Cottage is offered with no forward chain, making it an ideal opportunity to own a piece of Swanage history.
