This unique home represents a rare opportunity to acquire a character property of architectural provenance, in one of the most sought-after locations on the Dorset coast. Falcon House is positioned centrally on its plot with good sized landscaped gardens, ample off-road parking and fine sea views.

Originally built during the Arts and Crafts period, the home carries historical significance. The land was once owned by the Director of the Victoria & Albert Museum, and the house itself was designed by an architect for his own residence. Today, Falcon House continues this creative legacy, retaining original fireplaces, doors, and architectural details throughout. Every principal room benefits from views over the gardens and out to the sea, while the grounds feature Purbeck stone landscaping that creates a series of enchanting "garden rooms" to explore and enjoy.

Falcon House perfectly combines seclusion and tranquillity with easy access to the beach, town centre, sailing club, and cultural amenities of Swanage. At the same time, Durlston Country Park and Townsend Nature Reserve are just moments away, offering peaceful walks and nature on the doorstep.

The seaside town of Swanage is located at the Eastern tip of the Isle of Purbeck, delightfully situated between the Purbeck Hills. It has a safe, sandy beach and walkers and cyclists can enjoy the South West Coast Path as well as access to Durlston Country Park. Swanage is some 10 miles from the market town of Wareham, which has main line rail links to London Waterloo (approx 2.5 hours).  Much of the area surrounding the town is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty, incorporating the Jurassic Coast, which is part of the World Heritage Coastline.

Stepping inside this charming character home, the welcoming entrance hall leads into the central staircase hall complete with a beautifully crafted timber balustrade. The main reception spaces flow naturally from here. The living room is a light-filled dual aspect room with a bay window music area, a fireplace, and views to the gardens and sea. The dining room beckons with a spacious layout and enjoys views over the landscaped gardens to the sea. Adjacent to the dining room is the kitchen, traditional in its setting with a wood fire Rayburn cooker, a range of fitted units and space for a functional daytime kitchen table; the room has a feature window looking over the landscaped gardens and the sea. A guest cloakroom and a utility room complete the accommodation on this level.
