House For Sale £450,000
Beautifully presented 3/4 bedroom detached bungalow with a large garden, parking and wonderful views towards Seatown.
The property lies to the centre of the sought-after village of Chideock, a short step from the beach and is all about presentation and views. Built in the late 1950s the property has undergone wholesale refurbishment and modernisation in the last two years, taking in many of the high cost items including the gas fired boiler, the windows, the kitchen, the electrics, the conversion of the garage into an office, the replastering of much of the downstairs, redecoration and recarpeting of the whole property. The property sits back from the main village road with parking to the front and with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside down to the sea at Seatown, providing an ever changing vista all year round.
The bungalow is conventionally arranged with flexible accommodation that can be used either to increase the number of bedrooms or alternatively the number of living rooms, depending on how the incumbent wishes to live. To the front and centre of the property there is a large entrance hall off which all the principal rooms downstairs are accessed with, to the right hand side, a room that is currently used as a second reception room, but has in the past been a bedroom, with a wood burning stove as it centrepiece. To the left hand side, similarly, there is a bedroom currently used as a formal dining room. The sitting room and a kitchen are to the rear of the property and take in the best of the views. The sitting room has a second fireplace equipped with a wood burning stove as its centrepiece and a bay window to one end. The kitchen has been fitted out in some style with Silestone worksurfaces and a built-in induction hob with contemporary extractor hood over and an electric oven. Off the kitchen there is there is the utility room that has space for two large fridge freezers to one side and a door to the garden, with to one side a laundry room with plumbing for a washing machine. In addition downstairs there is a well equipped shower room with an attractive contemporary white suite. Upstairs there are two further bedrooms the principal of which also takes in views. To the left hand side of the property, within what was the garage, a contemporary work/office space has been created with an attractive lantern light above over that would make a good home working place. In short this bungalow is a very polished property indeed.
To the front of the property there is a stone flanked entrance adjoining the road leading through to an area of drive providing parking for a couple of cars. The gardens to the rear of the property are a particular feature as they face south and look out over the adjoining countryside to the sea. A newly paved terrace immediately to the rear of the property provides unusually good outside entertaining area/viewing point during the Summer months. To one side there is an attractive summer house while the gardens sweep gently away from the terrace down to a second summerhouse that is currently used as a garden store. There are raised herbaceous and shrub borders by the terrace while the garden itself remains for the most part a blank canvas and is mostly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedging. The gardens at the end join open farmland.
Chideock is a popular West Dorset village, being just under a mile from Seatown and the renowned Jurassic coastline and Lyme Bay. Bridport is three miles away and is a bustling and vibrant market town with a history of rope-making. It has a variety of shops, public houses and restaurants catering for a range of tastes and is conveniently placed for Dorchester and Weymouth to the east and Axminster to the west. Walking, golfing, water sports and riding opportunities are plentiful in the area. The region is well known for both its public and privately funded schooling. Communication links are good with road links along the A35 and mainline stations at Dorchester, Axminster and Crewkerne.<br/><br/>
