Swanage, Dorset

House for sale in Dorset

A rare opportunity to purchase a freehold plot on which to build your own bespoke beach hut - with the option to acquire the adjacent plot as well.

This site occupies an exceptional position directly on the promenade, enjoying uninterrupted sea views across Swanage Bay and towards the Isle of Wight.

Beach huts in Swanage seldom come to market, and freehold plots are rarer still. Ownership also includes ownership of beach immediately in front of the hut.

Just a short stroll along the seafront, the plot sits close to all the town’s amenities yet far enough back to offer a peaceful retreat. A popular beachfront café/bar nearby delivers food and drinks directly to your hut during the summer months.

The vendor has provided a concept design showing how a finished hut might look, and we have indicative build costs available. All subject to relevant consents.

The whole plot is 12 ft x 9ft plus the wall and beach.

Investment
Based on comparable beach hut rentals in Swanage, it is realistic to achieve around 18 weeks of lettings per year, generating over £5,000 in annual income (source: Swanage Town Council).

Location
Swanage Beach stretches the full length of the town. With its gently shelving golden sand, clean Blue Flag waters, and family friendly atmosphere, it is one of Dorset’s most attractive beaches.

The town offers year round appeal, with artisan cafés, independent shops, a heritage steam railway, and a full calendar of festivals.
