Summary - HALCYON COTTAGE WEST ROAD WEST LULWORTH WAREHAM BH20 5RY
2 bed 2 bath Detached
Charming two-bedroom coastal cottage — proven holiday let near Lulworth Cove.
Walking distance to Lulworth Cove and near Durdle Door
Halcyon Cottage is a charming stone cottage tucked into the heart of West Lulworth, a short walk from Lulworth Cove and close to Durdle Door. The property offers two generous double bedrooms, a cosy sitting room with a Purbeck stone fireplace and inset wood burner, and a sunny kitchen/dining room with bespoke joinery and solid wood worktops. Its location and existing track record as a successful holiday let make it attractive for investors seeking seasonal income or buyers wanting a lock-up-and-leave coastal bolt-hole.
Practical positives include private parking, an adjoining storage shed that houses a regularly serviced oil boiler, and a small, manageable courtyard ideal for morning coffee. The cottage is freehold, has double glazing, no flood risk and sits in a low-crime village environment with easy access to local amenities, short drives to Wareham and Dorchester, and mainline stations a few miles away.
Notable considerations: the main heating fuel is oil (not a community supply), and the walls are identified as cavity construction with no installed insulation (assumed). Broadband and mobile signals are average, the plot is small and outdoor space is predominantly a communal courtyard. There are some data inconsistencies in the paperwork regarding build date and form (historic origins are described in the narrative, while records note mid-20th-century construction and a built-form listing as semi-detached); buyers should verify age/structural details if historic fabric is material to purchase decisions.
Overall, this property suits buyers seeking a low-maintenance coastal base or investors after a proven holiday-let in an iconic Dorset location. It combines character features and modern comforts, but expect heating and insulation-related running costs and limited private garden space.
